Phone authentication hangs on iOS with @nativescript/firebase 5.0.2

Comece pelo tratamento de mensagens em app-root.js e pelo ponto de entrada de phone-auth de @nativescript/firebase-ui; revise package.json, build.xcconfig e Podfile junto com o fluxo de phone-auth do Firebase iOS referenciado. Reproduza no iOS com as versões fornecidas e verifique se concluir a verificação por SMS retorna de show() e mantém o usuário conectado sem o travamento relatado.

I have upgraded my app to the latest version of everything, namely NativeScript 8.9.2, @nativescript/firebase 5.0.2, macOS Sequoia 16.6.1, Xcode 16.4, etc. I can log in on Android devices and simulators (with test numbers) successfully, as I had before the upgrade. On iOS, however, the login hangs after entering the verification code from the SMS message. The Firebase UI completes, in that my login screen is displayed, but control is never returned. This is the code I use to initiate the login:

let idp = await firebase().ui().show({ providers: [new PhoneProvider()] });

In addition to the hang, I also receive the two silent notifications shown below.

app-root.js: handleMsg: message: {
    "foreground": true,
    "data": {
        "com.google.firebase.auth": {
            "warning": "This fake notification should be forwarded to Firebase Auth."
        }
    }
}

app-root.js:61 app-root.js: handleMsg: message: {
    "data": {
        "com.google.firebase.auth": "{\"receipt\":\"AEFDNu9LxA12I0A5Vch7JoTI8XiANEA-viqkiPhRykmcra6aVSCmjVZa5il-Yt4JUh3nbgRzhULnxdKSOEpMQUpcjWr72qkpx3p-ssSSemqDD8l33JdZqN-20Rl5RzU83A\",\"secret\":\"i9pLJ5Ol3WBB17Ol\"}"
    },
    "notification": {
        "apple": {}
    },
    "contentAvailable": 1,
    "foreground": true,
    "messageId": "1757287521614594"
}

I found this information in the Firebase docs:

When you call verifyPhoneNumber(_:uiDelegate:completion:), Firebase sends a silent push notification to your app, or issues a reCAPTCHA challenge to the user. After your app receives the notification or the user completes the reCAPTCHA challenge, Firebase sends an SMS message containing an authentication code to the specified phone number and passes a verification ID to your completion function. You will need both the verification code and the verification ID to sign in the user.

I'm guessing that the secret property is the verification ID, but if so, I don't see how I can couple that with the verification code since they are on different threads.

Is anyone successfully using phone authentication with @nativescript/firebase 5.0.2?

I've included my package.json, build.xcconfig and Podfile contents below.
