Bug description
Since the update to 28 the cron jobs get stuck once a day. I've seen https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/42793 and https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/43184 but I'm unsure if its the same problem. Feel free to close or link if its the same.
In my case the cronjobs getting not OOM killed instead they keep stuck till so many processes are spanned the system gets slow. When I do a strace I get
lstat("/srv/www/XXX/data/8ED118F1-XXX", 0x7fffc8330550) = -1 ENOENT (Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden)
forever. When I create the missing folder the cronjobs end. However next time they got stuck with a different folder.

Same problem for me, up my CPU to 100%. When I try to execute cron.php with the same owner, it finishes normally
https://github.com/nextcloud/server/pull/45804 will provide a bit more clarity. We will start to see which specific jobs are taking ages to complete.
@tograss #46191 (the backport of #45804) is in-place. Can you check your logs?
