Universal links stopped working, CDN responds with 404 for our domain

From some moment of time, Universal Links stopped working for our app. As per my understanding, application reinstall or update caused system to fetch AASA file from CDN, which started to reply with 404 for our domain (https://app-site-association.cdn-apple.com/a/v1/app.link.digidentity.eu).

In the meantime, nothing has changed inside our app or on our BE (https://app.link.digidentity.eu/.well-known/apple-app-site-association).

Executing "curl -v https://app-site-association.cdn-apple.com/a/v1/app.link.digidentity.eu" returns following result

On our end, we did not find any reason why it can be not available for Apple to fetch. Is SWCERR00302 an indication of problem on our end? Any help is appreciated
