Git commit message hook in WebStorm not working

I am using husky to hook the Git commit messages.

The commit-msg hook works fine when using with git CLI.

But I am failing with my primary IDE - WebStorm.

Here goes the error screenshot.

package.json

{
  "name": "backend",
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "private": true,
  "husky": {
    "hooks": {
      "commit-msg": "commitlint -E HUSKY_GIT_PARAMS"
    }
  },
  "scripts": {
...

commitlint.config.js

/**

 *   - SECURITY: in case of vulnerabilities

module.exports = {

      "always",
      ["ADDED", "CHANGED", "DEPRECATED", "REMOVED", "FIXED", "SECURITY"],
    ],
  },
}

node version

Any idea why I am facing this error? Thanks in advance.

P.S. I am using Ubuntu 20.04 through WSL 2.0. (not sure this can be a clue :))
