az login (redirects to localhost and hits ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED)

[dsteeley]

Describe the bug

Similar to other recent issues but slightly different symptoms. I run az login, follow through the interactive login process and the oauth flow redirects me to localhost: where I hit an ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.
Using edge browser.
--use-device-code does work.

From the debug logs there is also a link to localhost:?error=abort which I've tested and still hit an ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.
It looks to me like az is unable to open a connection on localhost: which is leading to this issue. I'm concerned about this as I later tried to run az ad group list --debug and hit issues relating to my device not being managed which I've previously never hit so suspect it's a symptom of the same issue.

Getting the same thing running in Ubuntu 22.04 in WSL2
azure-cli is already the newest version (2.47.0-1~jammy)

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS
Release:        22.04
Codename:       jammy

It opens the browser window and prompts me for my username, I click on it and then it redirects to something like this:
http://localhost:37703/?code=<very long token> ... &state=ASDFjklasdf&session_state=<guid>

As a further test, I uninstalled 2.47 and went back to 2.40 and the same thing happened.

I guess this is the same as #26180

Yes, as mentioned in #26180 executing wsl --update --pre-release to get the patch has worked for me
