Comment (by azouamauriac):

 Hi thanks for test report, and thanks @phatkoala for the PR

 Replying to [comment:3 costdev]:
 > 2. [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/pull/2458 PR 2458]
 resolves the issue. ✅
 He updated the PR, and when I tested it, here is the result:
 [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/pull/2458/commits/11713240ed17512f5a792ee9194000bfc2400b72 before
 the last PR: ][https://prnt.sc/Bej0-MVvbgSj] ;
 [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/pull/2458/commits/11713240ed17512f5a792ee9194000bfc2400b72 after
 the last PR ] : [https://prnt.sc/ZZ53foh-Xs3b]; So I think you should use
 commit link instead of PR since it can be updated anytime and commiters
 can be involved in mistakes. I think it is [https://github.com/WordPress
 /wordpress-
 develop/pull/2458/commits/3df1812b5e25121e8c45000f0fc7584459c352a2 this
 commit] you have tested and agreed(I guess). I tested it too, and it fixes
 the bug, but I am not so fan of the way, while I am still thinking about
 how to fix it properly, I agree with the commit though.
 > 1. Introduced in [8784].
 IMO the bug is due to [https://prnt.sc/xNaBmE9cCBQA this line] in this
 function
 [https://prnt.sc/SZ75h7yPGkum WP_User::__get]
 (if you comment [https://prnt.sc/xNaBmE9cCBQA this line] everything will
 work fine) introduced in [18597].
 Also, just for information, I've made some tests on 4.9.20 version and the
 bug is not present there, while it's present in 5.8 where I've done some
 tests too.
