Which version of Microsoft.IdentityModel are you using? 8.0.2

Note that to get help, you need to run the latest version.

Where is the issue?

• [ ] M.IM.KeyVaultExtensions
• [ ] M.IM.Logging
• [ ] M.IM.ManagedKeyVaultSecurityKey
• [X ] M.IM.Protocols
• [ ] M.IM.Protocols.OpenIdConnect

• [ ] M.IM.Tokens.Saml
• [ ] M.IM.Validators
• [ ] M.IM.Xml
• [ ] S.IM.Tokens.Jwt
• Other (please describe)

Is this a new or an existing app? a. The app is in production and I have upgraded to a new version of Microsoft.IdentityModel.*

We host a web service (CSES) on Azure. After a recent upgrade of the Microsoft.IdentityModel packages, our service became irresponsive when the load is high. The dump shows that most of the thread (more than 3000) are stuck waiting for something. Here is the call stack:

Is this a known issue? Any solutions? We are running .net framework 4.7.2. The version for Microsoft.IdentityModel.Protocols.dll is 8.0.2.

@jw444 This may have been fixed in 8.1.1. Can you try to repro with the latest 8.2.0?

Thank you @pmaytak. I've upgraded to 8.2.0, and the tests so far seem to show that the issue is indeed fixed.
