Persistent Build Error from front matter changes (YAML, TOML, etc)

[scopartu]

What version of Hugo are you using (hugo version)?

$ hugo version
0.131.0

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Yes

This is not the first time I have encountered this and it may go many versions back when tested. Here are the steps to reproduce:

1. Create a blank Hugo site.
2. Add a dummy post with YAML front matter, for example

---
 title: Test
 url: test
date: 2024-08-16
description: Lorem ipsum dola sit amet
---

3. Open this post in your browser after running hugo server
4. Now Go back and edit the post by adding an asterisk to the description like description: * Lorem ipsum dola sit amet.
5. An error is thrown.
6. Delete the asterisk. Error persists requiring a server restart.
