Cloudflare Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
ZeroFox (@zerofox_gpt) reportedThis site only gets about 3000 visitors a day and I had just migrated it to Cloudflare. With proper Cloudflare rules and caching setup this attack would have been mitigated without me even noticing it was happening. Also I could have just enabled the "Under Attack" mode on Cloudflare but I didn't know what was causing all the errors I was suddenly seeing.
-
Irwin 🇨🇦 (@Irwin_2012) reported@RinneSatom3000 @ElectionsAB It’s about buying service from the US in support of a TPA. Although Cloudflare itself does not charge a donation processing fee, hosting (paying) for the website to advertise could be construed as a purchase outside AB.
-
phillias (@phillias) reportedGLM 5.2 makes me laugh, earlier it talked about the irony of it's failing on what it was trying to fix and now this "The cloudflare-fix task got caught in a beautiful bootstrap failure — it was trying to fix the exact model config that its own fallback chain depends on." Amazing.
-
Peter Steinberger 🦞 (@steipete) reported@dillon_mulroy @dok2001 @Cloudflare Hmmm this already runs on Cloudflare, but I have no idea - what would that help me?
-
Chris Seltzer (@ChrisSeltzer) reported@neerajjj6785 Really depends on what you're using it for and where your stuff will be hosted. If you're using a platform like AWS then buying it through them can save you some headaches down the line. Otherwise I've always used Namecheap but heard good things about Cloudflare.
-
Server For Agent (@ServerForAgent) reported@turbodomains @Cloudflare @CloudflareDev Option B is the right call. Nobody should spend 4 days making an agent fight edge compute constraints just to keep a stack that was never designed for it. Boring Node host, zero code changes, ship the feature instead of the migration.

Nandkishor (@nandkshorjadoun) reportedi'm trying to switch from prisma to @DrizzleORM because of cloudflare workers incompatibility and ngl prisma spoiled me so bad that drizzle feels like writing raw sql 😭
-
Vignesh Mohankumar (@vig_xyz) reportedrender is okay, and i used to use it a lot, but they're missing a lot of services that i end up needing pretty quickly. i think if i really didn't wanna use aws these days i'd go there still (they have native terraform support too) for a while i was only using cloudflare. just feels like their cli's are more cumbersome and i'm not a huge fan of their workers. their container setup is also definitely worse than aws, and no good native postgres. haven't tried vercel much but imagine i'd have the same annoyances there i've used azure for clients, that's also fine. i think their serverless stuff is kinda mediocre but other stuff was good. haven't used gcp yet so can't speak to it i've never used netlify or fly or coolify curious what other people are doing though

AAZ HAZAR (@AazHazar) reportedStopping the bad guys with Cloudflare: 805 malicious requests blocked or challenged in the last month #cloudflare

Jonas Templestein (@jonas) reported@corywilkerson @Cloudflare Support for OpenAI websockets api would be good
-
Adam (@_overment) reportedwas thinking about that too. Webflow, Framer, Make, Airtable, all gone. and there are memes about AI replacing $500 of software with $5000 in token bills. but in this case it's more like "the way I work has changed". now Cloudflare for example is what I need. and I don't need builders, classic CMS, or visual workflow editors anymore. agents handle all of it faster and more comfortably. I love not having to manually format the damn markdown when publishing a blog post.

mRr3b00t (@UK_Daniel_Card) reportedHaving dealt with MSBLASTER and WANNACRY.... this is really not as bad as it gets. Most sites were patched (on sampling we found about 20% of sites did not autopatch) Cloudflare put in blocks across all subs The PoC for SQLi took not very long (honeypot activity took about a day to appear the RCE POC seemed to take about a day to appear (I'm not god i can't see everything all at once so some of this might be inaccurate... I have checked honeypots)

Paul (@jadge_dev) reportedCloudflare makes most of their money from Enterprise customers for example cloudflare has a high tier DDOS mitigation service called Magic Transit which starts at around $60,000 a year
-
Widmer (@WidmerLuiz) reported@NftCelestials @CryptoCyberia Then you overload the reverse proxy and the service goes down, just pay cloudflare and thats it bro, what a shity idea came up from your mouth.
-
FatherXLdn (@FatherXLdn) reportedStep 6: lock it down (do NOT skip this). Cloudflare Access in front of the tunnel: only your email gets a one-time login code. Nothing loads without it. Then verify Access's signed JWT server-side, don't trust the email header. Headers can be forged; signatures can't.
-
David Rogers (@DavidRogers2001) reported@AetiusRF @XJosh That's what he is saying, there is nothing we can do. Unless you can complain enough to get cloudflare to reverse course then nothing will help.
-
The Erased Chronicles & Heart of Adventurers ❄ (@HeartofErased) reported@Drag00ner69 @DBOReborn Yeah but sadly it didn't work on my end, just got a 404 when I tried the cloudflare thing. Gonna have to wait for the inhouse fix
-
abdul🪐 (@NerdyProgramme2) reported@jayhemz cloudflare - you're not their customer, big companies are opencode - partnerships (we list your model, you pay us)
-
joexiii 🏴☠️ (@j03xiii) reported@HamEggsnSam I do a lot different **** on my network though actually. Like I have a whole subnet just for my wife’s work computer (I don’t trust her IT guy, long story) that is entirely segregated from my main net and uses Cloudflare for DNS. My gaming network is also segregated and uses Cloudflare for reduced latency. Basically my net traffic looks normal and crazy at the same time which probably drives my ISP nuts. At least I like to think it does I also run IDS/IPS and have caught and stopped a least a handful of probes trying to get in. I’ll probably spin up a honey trap in the near future too just for fun
-
Pre-Alhaji ⚡ (@he_is_PC) reported@jayhemz Cloudflare particularly, I've been seeing a lot of ecom and biz website platform use their service lately for bot protection Clicked to me they might be making a tonne of bag there since they are the preferred choice of protection I've been digging in and they look overvalued
-
Hot Aisle (@HotAisle) reported@mgaruccio It is a reverse proxy… thus you implement with a cloudflare worker and/or pointing to gcp functions if you want golang in there. sure they can add some bells on top of that but at the core, this scale issue is solved.
-
Ananda Dhakal (@dhakal_ananda) reported@UK_Daniel_Card If a web cms vuln getting compared with msblaster and wannacry, it's already pretty bad lol how bad is always relative, and if we compare this vuln with other web 0-days popping up, this is a really good one btw cloudflare bypass is ezz
-
Jerry Combs (@PointBlueTech) reported@MarkJSzymanski I’m doing the same for all my sites. Totally static other than an issue submission function that runs as a CloudFlare worker. I use an agent to update content as needed. It takes minutes. No need for cms.
-
Green Eggs-n-Sam (@HamEggsnSam) reportedThis is me using a $100 pihole server to block the data Fox is paying $22 billion to own and collect about you. In the chart below the red portion is blocked ads/trackers. The light blue was already cached and therefore loads faster. The green are queries that leave my network, but go to distributed root servers instead of Google or Cloudflare so my data is more private. Below that, you can see Roku goes crazy when it can’t phone home to pass-on all your data.

EmoPorEmilio 🇺🇾 (@emoporemilio_en) reported@threepointone at this point I just let codex and claude code use the cloudflare ai setup and don't bother with much, I haven't gotten even 1 problem yet
-
Olay Bu İşte (@olaybuiste) reported@TheHackersNews After the 7.0.1 update, I encountered critical REST API errors and resolved the issue using Cloudflare’s whitelisting methods. I also installed the 7.0.2 update yesterday but didn’t change my Cloudflare settings. I’ll continue to monitor the situation for a while longer.+++
-
yuozi (@silentgreenbird) reported@WarriorZ148 @FakeTaxedBrass Extremely hard. HE which is one of the largest companies in internet networking in general tried with its massive network and failed. HEs total network volume is about 90x that of cloudflare.
-
Naamã (@Naam36831652) reported@divinetrickr Just look at what Kiwi Farms is suffering now. Poor sods can't even get Cloudflare.

Kunai1337🇺🇸🇺🇦🇵🇸🐈 (@Hurriya1973) reported@XJosh @Cloudflare hosts cat torture content and still has those sites up. $NET doesnt have a problem with a site that hosts illegal animal crush videos
