MSBuild logger failing with NullReferenceException during build

[safern]

Some builds are failing with:

MSBUILD : error MSB4017: The build stopped unexpectedly because of an unexpected logger failure. 
Microsoft.Build.Exceptions.InternalLoggerException: The build stopped unexpectedly because of an unexpected logger failure.

MSBuild issue: dotnet/msbuild#5296

It might be related to the recent SDK update.

Tried to query with runfo if this is still happening but it timed out and threw an exception :(
