Also happened to me. Also had to rollback to 2.62.0

Is there any interim solution for this apart from rollback to older version??

Our team is also currently having this issue. Is there an ETA for a fix?

As a workaround, you may follow https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/authenticate-azure-cli-interactively#sign-in-with-web-account-manager-wam-on-windows to turn off WAM:

az account clear
az config set core.enable_broker_on_windows=false
az login
