Since yesterday my bots are crashing with the error

I'm not sure what causes this, there do seem to be other bots online.

perhaps you have some old CAs? what does this say?

openssl s_client -connect online-go.com:443 < /dev/null | openssl x509 -noout -text

I get this cert https://crt.sh/?id=12255514776
though it looks like a newer cert was issued 6 days later https://crt.sh/?id=12326863795
they were both issued in march, though, so I don't think anything has changed recently

[Dorus]

Do you have a windows equivalent of that command at hand?

[raylu]

ah... on windows, node isn't patched to use the system's CA store nodejs/node#4175. so you might just need to upgrade node? unless you're using the brotli-built executables, in which case the project needs to upgrade something

[Dorus]

Oh!

I was using a very old node

node -v
v18.13.0

Updated to the latest, 21.7.3, still the same error

[Dorus]

Not sure what changed but it all works again.
