This issue is probably happening because the artboard dimensions are not appropriate for raster export (i.e. are in decimals).
If you make x and y values as the whole numbers in the transform panel (not in decimal), then the extra pixels will not be added to the exported image.That is the workaround, and it’s reported that it’s not always the case.
At the same time — Ai knows the size of artboards to be exported and yet it does not deliver the set sizes, which is not fair. The team is going to rethink the algorithm.
An error occurred while saving the comment Captain Digital commentedWhen I export a file to a bitmap format [could be Export -> Export for Screens, Export -> Export As... or Save for Web (Legacy)...] Illustrator adds a white row and/or column of pixels to the exported size. In other words, if your artboard is set to 250 x 75 pixels, Illustrator will export the bitmap as 250 x 76, or sometimes 251 x 76. I suspect this has something to do with how you are saving the file's size/aspect ratio internally. Shouldn't matter if I have the file configured for inches, pixels, points or anything else - when I tell Illustrator to export something 250 x 75, I expect to get 250 x 75px, and NOT 250 x 76. This is particularly galling when preparing graphics for website layouts. an extra white row or column of white pixels means I have to pull in every graphic into Photoshop, to lop off the extra row and/or column.
BTW - the only way I can successfully export a transparent PNG now is to export screens (artboards). It will ***** up the size (adding pixels), but at least the background will be transparent. All other export methods result in a solid white background.
An error occurred while saving the comment Captain Digital commentedWhen I export a JPEG (File>Export>Save to Web (Legacy) Illustrator adds a 1-pixel white line to the left edge and bottom edge of the image. I set the page size as 350 x 100 pixels, and when I export, I get a 351 x 101 pixel image. The attached image is an example of the output.

We can change the value Illustrator uses as 'auto' in Justification dialog, which you can access via the Paragraph panel’s menu. Change 'Auto Leading' to 100% to get what you want.
If you want this setting to be applied to all new text objects, you should open Paragraph Styled panel, and edit the [Normal Paragraph Style].
If you want this to be applied to every new document you make, you should learn about editing document profile files Illustrator uses as core templates. Just don’t forget to backup these.

I could do that, but I don't see why it would really help. There are times I need the auto setting on leading, and times I need it tight. Perhaps a better solution would be to give us a couple of configurable settings, like +0, +2, +4 points, that we could set and forget, making the settings dependent on point size.
