checkov runner IndexError

Describe the issue MegaLinter v8.4.0 (checkov v3.2.357) & MegaLinter v8.4.2 (checkov v3.2.360) throws this error:

Failed to invoke function /venvs/checkov/lib/python3.12/site-packages/checkov/common/runners/runner_registry._parallel_run with (<checkov.arm.runner.Runner object at 0x7fe367867680>, '.', None, None, <checkov.runner_filter.RunnerFilter object at 0x7fe3678ce750>, True, None)

Additional context I've already raised with MegaLinter (https://github.com/oxsecurity/megalinter/issues/4906) Nicolas has said it looks to be a checkov internal error and so I'm raising here

It would be difficult to debug without knowing at least what is the running command and on what files it crashes. Can you provide that info?

@nvuillam, are you able to provide the info?

@lukelloydagi you can find how checkov is called in MegaLinter logs :)
