Maybe you should use dotnet dev-certs https --verbose --trust to trust your certificate on Linux.

We've just had a similar issue with multiple docker image builds failing using mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:8.0-alpine. Vite was trying to generate dev-certs, which is where we encountered the issue.

Looks to be an issue in the latest SDK (8.0.403). We downgraded to SDK 8.0.402 (mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/sdk:8.0.402-alpine3.20) our images build now works.

This might be a dupe of #58330.

This solution works fine for me, thanks for your help. Close this.
