Invalid character [ in name in D365 BPF entity - Microsoft plugin issue for multiple organization

Hi all,

All of a sudden, the below error started popping up to different US D365 environments since last night. It looks like a Microsoft plugin issue which has bugs (perhaps in their last background update)

I've opened a ticket though, however, has anybody encountered this before or done anything to overcome this, if so? This error occurs when we click on Next in the Business Process Flow.
