Apt repo no longer in DNS, so no security updates

1

apt repo is no longer in DNS, so no security updates any longer!

I have checked on my hosts in Stockholm, Bucharest and Frankfurt, so it is not my client’s fault:

ping brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com

ping: brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com: No address associated with hostname

A big security risk IMHO. I see no other way to tell but to post it here. Would be great if someone at Brave would read this.

Sorry for the formatting, it is the community software’s fault. 1) I cannot edit my post, 2) original text was:

# ping brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com

ping: brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com: No address associated with hostname

Thanks for letting us know, I can reproduce on my machine too. We’re looking into it.

We found the problem and have fixed it. It will take a bit of time to propagate to all DNS servers, but it does work right now with 1.1.1.1:

$ dig +short brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com @1.1.1.1
d9owkidwx4k9e.cloudfront.net.
13.224.10.67
13.224.10.44
13.224.10.7
13.224.10.88
