Describe the bug When authenticating using InteractiveBrowserCredential on MacOS and not using cached credentials, the app never exits. I suspect that the local server used to catch the auth callback is never closed. Using any other auth methods works without having the app stuck at the end.

From some testing with my colleagues, the problem seems to only occur on MacOS, though I did not get the chance to try it myself on Windows and Linux.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Try to authenticate in a Node.js app with

  const browserCredential = new InteractiveBrowserCredential({
    redirectUri: `http://localhost:31337`,
    tenantId: "<your tenant>,
  });
  await browserCredential.getToken("profile")
  console.log("login success");

1. After login is successful, app never exits.

Expected behavior The app exists properly after an interactive browser login.

Sorry for the lag @KarishmaGhiya, I just tested 2.0.5 and it perfectly fixes the issue, thanks! 👍

@sinedied Thank you for reporting. We were able to reproduce this issue on mac, but works fine on windows. We are investigating into this.
