Brave on Linux issue with new update

[Redbatman89]

Hi I;m using POP OS 20.04 and with the new update today I have encountered issues with the brave browser update Line

When I type into terminal sudo apt update I get this

https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com stable InRelease
Something wicked happened resolving ‘brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com:https’ (-5 - No address associated with hostname)

W: Failed to fetch https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/dists/stable/InRelease Something wicked happened resolving ‘brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com:https’ (-5 - No address associated with hostname)

W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

This started since today on Version 1.17.73

They have broken the DNS setup:

Apt repo no longer in DNS, so no security updates

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.

Well looks like I wont be updating other POP OS PC today for Brave.

@olafz was right, it was a DNS problem in our infrastructure:

Apt repo no longer in DNS, so no security updates

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
