Summary
AI Generated
Zscaler experienced intermittent DNS resolution failures across its zscaler.net, zscalertwo.net, zscloud.net, and zscalerthree.net clouds, affecting both Private and Public Service Edge customers for over 10 days. The root cause was a software regression introduced in a recent Service Edge update, causing DNS requests to intermittently time out when resolving domains that returned larger-than-expected DNS responses. Zscaler deployed a corrective software update in a phased rollout across global infrastructure, with completion achieved across ZS2, ZS3, and largely across ZSNet and ZSCloud regions.
