I second this, lots of our users report the same issue when authenticating with Azure DevOps using GCM 2.5.0. It just started to appear, so it might not be an issue with GCM but with Azure directly. Anything we can provide to you guys that might be helpful?

The issue here is that the MSAL library uses the original WebView control for the embedded browser prompts for Azure, which is based on Internet Explorer(!). Looks like they've broken WebView1 support with the Azure Entra ID login prompts.

Can you try switching to use the system browser instead?

git config --global credential.msauthFlow system
