Why Sanctum authentication returns 419 after session expires?

Hey there, I am using Laravel Sanctum Authentication in SPA. Everything is fine, I am able to authenticate. My concern is when my session is expired, I used to get 419 response instead of expected 401 response. Have you people got such response? and what could be the reason of 419?

Nopes. This is not about failed login. I am able to login without any issue, everything works well till the session expires. What I am asking is after the session expire, why the apis return 419 status & not 401 (Unauthenticated).
