Just to expand on this: In general, there is no networking in Bitbake tasks.

From the Bitbake manual (https://docs.yoctoproject.org/bitbake/2.6/bitbake-user-manual/bitbake-user-manual-metadata.html#variable-flags):
===
Variable Flags
[...]
[network]: When set to “1”, allows a task to access the network. By default, only the do_fetch task is granted network access. Recipes shouldn’t access the network outside of do_fetch as it usually undermines fetcher source mirroring, image and licence manifests, software auditing and supply chain security.
===

Yocto changelog (https://docs.yoctoproject.org/singleindex.html, grep for "[network]"):
===
Network access from tasks is now disabled by default on kernels which support this feature (on most recent distros such as CentOS 8 and Debian 11 onwards). This means that tasks accessing the network need to be marked as such with the network flag. For example:

do_mytask[network] = "1"
This is allowed by default from do_fetch but not from any of our other standard tasks. Recipes shouldn’t be accessing the network outside of do_fetch as it usually undermines fetcher source mirroring, image and licence manifests, software auditing and supply chain security.
===

Note that the changelog mentions "Debian 11 onwards", which is why you may be seeing a different behavior on buster.

In addition for Isar:
The way the Bitbake feature is implemented has a side-effect that also disables sudo. So in Isar, "network" is also enabled for tasks that need sudo.
