Relevant Code Snippets

`expiresOn: new Date(authResult.expiresOn),` - https://github.com/AzureAD/microsoft-authentication-library-for-js/blob/c8e74c3aaa87326ccce36eab041e2b25c600aeea/extensions/msal-node-extensions/src/broker/NativeBrokerPlugin.ts#L571

`expiresOn = new Date(Number(cacheRecord.accessToken.expiresOn) * 1000);` - https://github.com/AzureAD/microsoft-authentication-library-for-js/blob/c8e74c3aaa87326ccce36eab041e2b25c600aeea/lib/msal-common/src/response/ResponseHandler.ts#L636C1-L637C1

Reproduction Steps

It seems like the MSAL functions PublicClientApplication.acquireTokenByUsernamePassword() and PublicClientApplication.acquireTokenInteractive() return tokens with expiry times measured in milliseconds and seconds since Epoch, respectively.

Expected Behavior

expiresOn measured consistently
