[PLUGIN_ERROR] Could not load module : The argument 'path' must be a string or Uint8Array without null bytes

Hi,
I'm trying to migrate from Laravel Mix to Vite, and I encouter an issue about vite-plugin-vue2.

When I'm running vite build, the CLI returns this error :

vite build

vite v3.0.3 building for production...
✓ 126 modules transformed.
[vite:vue2] Could not load C:/Dev/Code/production/siteref/node_modules/vue2-google-maps/dist/components/placeInputImpl.js?vue&type=script&src=true&lang.js?commonjs-exports (imported by node_modules/vue2-google-maps/dist/components/placeInputImpl.js?vue&type=script&src=true&lang.js): The ar

It seems that it tries to load a file from a path, but the string of the path contains \x00 at the beginning, and it seems to make it fail.
What do you advice to fix that ? Should something be done to clean file paths from this kind of character ?

Here is my implementation of vite.config.js :

import {defineConfig} from 'vite'
import laravel from 'laravel-vite-plugin'
import vue from '@vitejs/plugin-vue2'

export default defineConfig({
	clearScreen: false,
	plugins: [
		laravel({
				input: [ 
					'resources/assets/sass/vendor.scss',
					'resources/assets/sass/app.scss',
					'resources/assets/js/app.js'
				],
				buildDirectory: 'assets', // The public subdirectory where compiled assets should be written.
				refresh: true // Configuration for performing full page refresh on blade (or other) file changes.
			}
		),
		vue({
			template: {
				transformAssetUrls: {
					base: null,
					includeAbsolute: false
				}
			}
		})
	]
})

Here are my packages from package.json : (there might be some leftovers from laravel-mix)
