Have you logged in to Portainer today? Mine won’t accept my credentials.
"Protection Mode is Off. Is there another switch I’m forgetting?
Not that I am aware of. Are you reaching the Login page? Remember that the username and password are not the same as the credentials you are using to Login into your HA instance.
Yes, I’m getting to the login page in Chrome. Mozilla gives me 401: Unauthorized. I created separate credentials when required awhile back. I must have written them down incorrectly. I assume a reinstall isn’t an option anymore.
If it can help, I’ve forked the addon and added it to my addon repo:. No guarantee whatsoever

The install where I noticed it is running hassOS on an x86 nuc installed from the generic x86 image. I have another setup on a Rasberry Pi, also hassOS, but no external firewall .
It’s strange that its in appearance working differently for you. Clearly, the ‘locals:’ section of the ‘ha dns info’ was clearly indicatingn the local DNS, and with ‘ha dns option’ I just added that to the start of the DNS servers list and then it works.
This is noticed by multiple people including me. Among other posts:
- Improve Privacy, Stop using hardcoded DNS - #30 by rimo
- Hass.IO - Baked-In DNS Client? - #7 by zmodem
- Add-on icons are gone and also add-on store is no longer showing the list of available add-ons - #11 by Recte
This topic was new for me and I found it via: NVD - CVE-2020-36517
I’m curious about what will happen next.

Interesting… Vulnarability base score 7.5 HIGH
Do you track CVE notices or was this a hazard to find it ?
I track them using this RSS feed: National Vulnerability Database
Next I filter things that are relevant to me and HA popped up.

This DNS issue is still occurring with all current Debian HA versions as of today’s date. Now for the past few months, I was wondering why my HA restarts took nearly 5 minutes on my the old Dell laptop with SSD that takes ~30 seconds to reboot. I also had all outbound DoH (TCP:853) being rejected on my pfSense (not blocked but rejected). I changed that ha dns option --servers dns:xxx and adjusted my firewall rule to block instead of reject. Everything is somewhat better. HA restarts take 35 seconds or so.
When I enabled logging of the reject DoH rule, HA was hitting the firewall ~30 times per second and noticed about 2 Mb/s traffic trying to get to 1.1.1.1 / 1.0.0.1 with rejected. Now that it is set to blocked, it is only a few times per second due to the way that block does not send an ICMP not available response back.
Either way, this all needs to be easily end-user configurable and not hard-coded.

I redirect all outgoing DNS traffic to my firewall’s DNS using a NAT rule.

That is of no use in case of DoT, cause the certificate fails. It’s only useful for DNS over 53

That’s DoT (DNS over TLS → 843), DoH uses 443, that makes it even harder to block.
The only way is to block all DoH you know.
I once found the script below to check if a server is a DoH or just a HTTPS server. The nmap command syntax to check if 1.1.1.1 is DoH (which it is too) is: nmap 1.1.1.1 -p443,53 --script=./Scripts/dns-doh.nse 1.1.1.1 --script-args query=A,target=cnn.com
local nmap = require "nmap"
local shortport = require "shortport"
local http = require "http"
local stdnse = require "stdnse"
local string = require "string"
local table = require "table"
local json = require "json"
local strbuf = require "strbuf"
description = [[

variables: t = <target of dns query>
q = <dns query type>

FYI you can disable the fallback DNS by entering the following in the cli:
ha dns options --fallback=false
Also less is potentially leaked out of the box after
Now supervisor does as systemd-resolved does and no longer sends LLMNR or MDNS queries to resolvers at all even if the fallback is enabled.
My general advice to anyone before disabling the fallback is to run the following command first:
ha resolution info
If you see no issues, feel free to disable it. If you see issues related to DNS then that means HA has issues working with your DNS server and you should fix those first.
And yes it is possible for HA to have an issue with a DNS server even though literally every other device on your network does not because of this:
If you have that musl related issue them it’ll show up as an issue when you enter that command. If not then feel free to disable the fallback.

Hey all,
I have a very strange issue. ha dns info says that my dns server is X. But its not, unless my old windows DNS server is running. Nothing will resolve. Or most importantly my ethernet ZHA coordinator
What am I missing?
