Title: JSON Parse Error when Using cURL/Wget for Wrangler Login Callback URL on Mac and Remote Linux

Description:

I am using a Mac as my local machine and a Linux Ubuntu as my remote machine. I am trying to log in to Wrangler, a tool for managing Cloudflare Workers, using the command npx wrangler login. This command generates a URL for authentication.

Steps I followed:

1. I executed npx wrangler login on my local Mac machine, which generated an authentication URL.
2. I copied the URL and pasted it into my browser on the Mac machine. The browser redirected me to a callback URL starting with localhost:8976.

However, since I need to log in from my remote Linux machine, I followed the documentation, which suggested copying the callback URL and opening a new session on the remote machine using cURL or any equivalent request library.

On the remote Linux machine, I attempted to use cURL and wget to log in. However, I encountered a JSON parse error when trying to use these commands to access the callback URL.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Execute npx wrangler login on the local Mac machine.
2. Copy the generated authentication URL and paste it into the browser on the Mac machine.
3. Note the callback URL, which starts with localhost:8976.
4. Open a new session on the remote Linux machine.
5. Attempt to access the callback URL using cURL or wget.

Expected Behavior:

The cURL or wget request should be successful, and the authentication process should be completed without any JSON parse errors.

Actual Behavior:

When using cURL or wget to access the callback URL on the remote Linux machine, a JSON parse error is encountered.

Error Message:

Please find the attached screenshot of the JSON parse error received while using cURL or wget.

Environment:

• Local Machine: Mac
• Remote Machine: Linux Ubuntu

Additional Notes:

I have checked the Cloudflare Workers documentation and community forums but haven't found a solution for this issue. I believe this may be a bug or misconfiguration that requires attention from the developers.

Thank you for looking into this issue and providing a resolution to this problem. If any additional information is needed, please let me know.

It occurs the same in my Windows development virtual machines.

Basically a duplicate of #2874.
We recommend using Cloudflare Access Tokens for remote machine development.
