SSL certificate verification failure when using DVC with Azure Storage Account container

I’m trying to integrate DVC (Data Version Control) with an Azure Storage Account container in a containerized environment while executing a notebook. The host is configured with a SAS token that has all the required permissions, but I’m encountering the following error:

Cannot connect to host azuretest.blob.core.windows.net:443 ssl:True
[SSLCertVerificationError: (1, ‘[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1006)’)]:
[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1006)
ERROR: failed to pull data from the cloud - 1 file(s) failed to download

Note: Azure, the workspace, and GitHub are all within the same environment, and no proxy is enabled.
DVC version: ‘3.59.1’

I’ve already attempted disabling SSL verification and also updating system certificates, but the issue persists. Do I have to attach any azure certificates or does anyone have suggestions on how to resolve this?
