I did a major update to 23.7.12

OPNsense 23.7.12-amd64
FreeBSD 13.2-RELEASE-p7
OpenSSL 1.1.1w


Now I can ping github, but not connect to it on 443.

I have a fairly vanilla opnsense. I don't have adblocking, unbound blacklist or any of that turned on. I have an allow all from lan rule.  I am currently on 23.1_6.

When I'm logged into the shell or the web diagnosics, I can't ping or curl github.com (140.82.113.3).  I have tried changing the source address between my LAN and WAN ips with no change.

I can ping and access github.com just fine rom my any machine on my LAN. 

I have basically two theories:

• When I run opnsense-code ports or one of these curl commands, github itself doesn't like it and blocks me.
• Something internal to opnsense that I am not aware of is blocking me.

I found that it appears to pass icmp in the firewall rules.  I never see any log messages related to my curl/netcat commands.
