I have a D8.6.1 site with Masquerade enabled. I recently upgraded to 8.6.1 and the masquerade functionality started failing. Here's what happens:
1. I am logged in as admin, go to People and choose "Masquerade as" for a user (have tried several, admin and non-admin)
2a. If the user I'm masq'ing is an admin, I am redirected to the same People screen I was on, receive an "Access denied" message, and appear to be completely logged out.
2b. If the user I'm masq'ing is a non-admin, I am redirected to the front page and I am completely logged out.
3. When I try to log in again as the admin user, I am redirected to "user/1" and receive an Access Denied message and remain logged out
4. If I try once more to log in as the admin user, it succeeds and I am redirected to "user/1" which loads successfully.
It seems that the attempt to masq is causing some sort of authentication confusion that lasts through the next login attempt at which point it is somehow reset and works normally.

It's likely this issue predates Contrib.social: some issue and comment data are missing.
I think this is more of a Legal module issue. Here is a link to the issue in the legal module https://www.drupal.org/project/legal/issues/2638224 🐛 Add exemption api to allow a Masquerade module exemption Needs review

This can't be a bug with Masquerade on its own, as it's working fine.
