Adobe CEP extension panel auto reloads while waiting for File upload

I have an axios.post function that is responsible for uploading files to a server via my CEP extension Panel in Photoshop. 

If the file being uploaded is more than 90MB, my adobe CEP extension panel automatically reloads after some time (instead it should be waiting for the file to upload). 

Niether the success or error functions of the axios post function is reached and the request does not get sent to the server.

For file uploads less than 90MB, the CEP panel behaves as expected by showing a loading symbol until the server sends back a 200 response.

Does anyone know how to prevent/fix this behaviour?
