Insecure Proxy Behavior with Invoke-(RestMethod|WebRequest) on 7.4.0-preview2 #19461

Prerequisites

Steps to reproduce

I use a number of script-based PWSH modules. In addition to using Invoke-RestMethod for a lot of API calls. These calls/modules are executed in a corporate environment with insecure/zero-trust proxies all over the place. The proxies cannot be avoided.

When testing PWSH v7.4.0-preview2, all script-based modules and IRM/IWR throw an error.
Eg. https://github.com/dell/OpenManage-PowerShell-Modules

I believe this is part of PR #18595. It seems that in certain scenarios, the change is breaking.

Adding the following to script-based modules and repos would be a large effort with external modules being out of my control. Unclear of best approach to mitigate in order to work before/after the 7.4.0 threshold.

if ($psVersionTable.PSVersion.Major -ge 7 -and $psVersionTable.PSVersion.Minor -ge 4) {
    $querySplat.Add('AllowInsecureRedirect',$true)
}

Expected behavior

[2881.31]ms GitHub> # Works before 7.4.0-preview2
$querySplat = @{
    Method = 'POST'
    URI = $URI
    Body = $bodyJSON
    SkipCertificateCheck = $true
    ContentType = 'application/json'
}
Invoke-RestMethod @querySplat
Id                    : a1bf17dd-d590-4929-8f0a-7357bed828f8

Actual behavior

$querySplat = @{
    Method = 'POST'
    URI = $URI
    Body = $bodyJSON

    ContentType = 'application/json'
}
Invoke-RestMethod @querySplat
