Steps to reproduce

Try to execute the following on MacOS with PS 7.4.5:
[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12 -bor [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls13

Expected behavior

Not crashing

Actual behavior

PSReadline spits out an exception

[JustinGrote]

Thanks for submitting! Hmm that's a really odd exception for what you're experiencing. I see this was transferred from PSReadline, does it only reproduce in vscode?

[AnotherLuckyGuy]

No, occurred from the terminal as well. Strangely when I open a new terminal session I can execute the command without issue. In fact it's been in my $profile for a long time. However I had this crash occur both within vscode and the terminal while I was working on a program. I believe something I was running or something I'm doing at the command line gets the PSReadline module in a bad state that then makes it vulnerable to this failure. I'm just not sure what exactly but if I can figure it out, I'll add more to the defect.
