Backport of #108809 to release/9.0
Customer Impact
This fix addresses CET stepping issues found while testing .NET 9 apps under the debugger.
Regression
Although the issue pre-exists, .NET 9 ships with CET enabled by default which will drastically increase the likelihood of customers encountering this issue..
Testing
VS Debugger validation. Manual validation stepping over call instructions, both with and without breakpoints set on them.
Risk
Medium-Low. It is a medium-sized code change but we have mitigated that risk by constraining the fix to a very narrow scenario which would result in a program crash without the fix. We will only perform an in-place single-step when CET debugging is enabled -and- when resuming from breakpoints on CALL instructions.
