Upgrade to Drupal 9.4.4 or higher.  For help with updates on Pantheon Composer driven sites, we have the following KB article.

Update modules providing additional CKEditor 4 plugins to the latest release of the major version you're on. Modules that have added CKEditor 5 support should provide support for both CKEditor 4 and 5, and provide an automated upgrade path (for toolbar items and plugin settings) from 4 to 5.

Enable the CKEditor 5 module (leave "CKEditor" module enabled) 

Converting text formats to use CKEditor 5

    1. Go to Text Formats ⮕ Editors in the Drupal Configuration user interface (usually under admin/config/content/formats) and click "Configure" for each text format.
    2. Under Text Editor change selection to "CKEditor 5" and click "Save configuration"
    3. Text formats must be updated one at a time. This will automatically migrate your text format configuration to CKEditor 5.
    4. Disable (old) "CKEditor" module.
    5. Note: This will change your configuration so make sure your export it.
