Thanks @akhilmhdh. I am trying to figure out issue behind it and it would be very helpful if @maidul98 provide his insight on it.

For both browser issue is related to inbuilt security features of browsers which is blocking a network calls [POST] to 121.0.0.1 from https://app.infisical.com/login .

In brave browser we are getting error as

POST http://127.0.0.1:55036/ net::ERR_BLOCKED_BY_CLIENT

which clearly means that brave shield is blocking call to localhost server which is used for cli authentication.

You can resolve this issue by turning off brave shield or do the steps that is maintained in ref article.

Safari do have similar issue and error that we are getting is

XMLHttpRequest cannot load http://127.0.0.1:64824/ due to access control checks.

This can be corrected by enabling developer option in Settings.

Safari>Settings>Advanced>Show Features for web developers

and then

Safari>Settings>Developer>Disable Cross Origin Restrictions .

Is there any way be which we can resolve this issue without users need to change there browser settings? @maidul98 any suggestion?
