az login error argument --password/-p: expected one argument after upgrading to azure cli to 2.50.0-1~focal

[cabral1888]

Describe the bug

When running the command from CI in the previous version 2.49.0-1~focal it did work:

az login \
  --service-principal \
  --tenant $AZURE_SP_TENANT \
  -u $AZURE_SP \
  -p $AZURE_SP_PASSWORD

However, since my CI installs the Azure CLI for every new execution (it always gets the latest version), now I'm using the version 2.50.0-1~focal and I'm getting the error:

argument --password/-p: expected one argument

Examples from AI knowledge base:

Is that an error I'm getting? Or have the API changed?

Could anyone help me with it? I really appreciate!

Issue script & Debug output

Since it's running from a CI perspective, I cannot run the command using different flags

Expected behavior

I would expect a JSON with all the subscriptions I'm logged in:

 [{
    "cloudName": "AzureCloud",
    "homeTenantId": "*",
    "id": "*",
    "isDefault": true,
    "managedByTenants": [
      {
        "tenantId": "TENANT_ID"
      }
    ],
    "name": "SUBSCRIPTION_1_NAME",
    "state": "Enabled",
    "tenantId": "*",
    "user": {
      "name": "*",
      "type": "servicePrincipal"
    }
  },{..}, ... ]

Hey team, nevermid. Just discovered the environment variable for password was not defined.
