I use the old sky texture. The issue is much less visible on the new default sun.
The brightness in my game is set to 3, and it worked just fine until I added atmosphere instance (for the new fog).
This is what happened:
The problem almost disappears when I lower the Lighting.Brightness and is even more noticeable at higher brightness.
I checked all other Lighting/Atmosphere/Sky/ColorCorrection settings and nothing but Brightness affects the sun texture.

Expected behavior
This is what the sun looks like when I only remove the atmosphere instance, without changing any other settings:
Without Atmosphere, the Lighting.Brightness doesn’t affect sun texture at all and I didn’t expect this behavior to change once Atmosphere is added.
