User error: "1" is an invalid render array key. How do I find where the error is coming from?

I get this error on every page. How do I debug or find what is causing it?

I thought it might have been changes to a twig template, but I tried other themes, and still had the error.

I’ve disabled all custom modules.

I searched and found User error: "1" is an invalid render array key in DrupalCoreRenderElement::children() Which suggests its custom theming related but I am using core theme without any changes to the code.

User error: "1" is an invalid render array key in DrupalCoreRenderElement::children() (line 98 of corelibDrupalCoreRenderElement.php).

I’m not sure if it happened after I ran composer update, could this be a contributed module which was updated that is causing this?

How can I find out more information to debug where it is coming from?
