Cloudflare Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • xyster Steve💙🇨🇦 (@xyster) reported

    @noakmilo @GithubProjects What time did Cloudflare go down again? oopsie

  • Ajit5ingh Ajit | Dev | singhajit.com (@Ajit5ingh) reported

    The cause was not an attack, just a small software bug that ended up making a critical config file too big. That crashed part of Cloudflare’s network globally.

  • exs1nner sar ah🇵🇸 (@exs1nner) reported

    I feel partially responsible for the cloudflare outage

  • Flattradein Flattrade (@Flattradein) reported

    @CHANDUL40975526 Due to a global Cloudflare outage, our Website, WALL, NOVO, and InstaKYC platforms are currently inaccessible. However, all our trading platforms - Web, App, Desktop, and API - are fully functional and operating without any issues.

  • ubuntupunk David Robert Lewis (@ubuntupunk) reported

    @eastdakota @Cloudflare Important to reflect on what went down and what stayed up yesterday, and can anyone handle every exception caused by a changed file permission propagation?

  • anjanspace AP 🏔️ ☀️ (@anjanspace) reported

    @just_chitraa Yes . Imagine if there is frequent outage like cloudflare and AWS going down, all the businesses which are dependant online will take a massive hit.

  • horsemankukka Kukka de Bierguirb Häst (@horsemankukka) reported

    @TripleNickels @kmcnam1 @Cuzie13 might also be a joke related to the recent cloudflare outage, maybe suggesting that less entropy caused that. think how /dev/random is slower as /dev/urandom, less entropy could make the system boot longer. (none of the assumptions are true, but. it's a joke)

  • Adi_dave_cs Aditya Dave (@Adi_dave_cs) reported

    My friend who works at one network services company just shipped a feature on Monday . And guess what ?!? He missed a semicolon!! IYKYK. #humor #corporatehumor #cloudflare

  • dg_512 David G (@dg_512) reported

    Gonna start a distributed, highly-available internet service hosting company that businesses can use to run CloudFlare on

  • Ajit5ingh Ajit | Dev | singhajit.com (@Ajit5ingh) reported

    By 11:30 UTC, engineers found massive HTTP 500 errors. The first clue: Cloudflare’s bot management system had shipped a huge config file by mistake. This file broke the traffic proxy globally.

  • anian0000 Anian (✧ᴗ✧) (@anian0000) reported

    @Babak_TS @cysic_xyz @Cysic_KR Cloudflare outage shows the centralization risk; Cysic's ComputeFi Mainnet is the decentralized architectural fix everyone needs.

    @TheWhiteWhaleV2 @aave Cloudflare issue

  • Crypto_bn Crypto 🔶 ₿N (@Crypto_bn) reported

    Market not looking good so not a gm really. Cloudflare put a lot of websites including some crypto related sites down. What happened at Cloudflare yesterday? - Around 11:20 UTC, a huge portion of the internet started failing with 5xx errors. - At first, Cloudflare thought it was a DDoS attack, because traffic patterns looked abnormal. - But the real issue was internal - a config file suddenly doubled in size because duplicate entries were generated in their Bot Management system. - This oversized file broke a core proxy component that handles traffic across Cloudflare’s network. - As a result, dashboards, CDN traffic, security features - everything started failing. - Fixing the config + rolling it out globally took a few hours, and things stabilized by ~17:00 UTC. A small internal data bug → huge file → crashed a critical service → global outage.

  • not_jpsenak Ján Pšenák (psenakdotsk) (@not_jpsenak) reported

    @ariamathfilms a company called Cloudflare which has services powering all of these and more had some of their services down which broke like half the internet

  • runsand_ai runsand (@runsand_ai) reported

    Cloudflare charges enterprises for protection. Runsand pays device owners to provide it. Your phone, laptop, car - idle 90% of the time. Put that compute to work. Earn tokens. Strengthen the network. Decentralized doesn't mean charitable. It means better aligned incentives.

  • Ajit5ingh Ajit | Dev | singhajit.com (@Ajit5ingh) reported

    Around 11:20 UTC, Cloudflare’s network started failing. Users saw error pages everywhere, including on X, ChatGPT, Spotify, Crunchyroll, and thousands more.

  • anarchyfailed Ruby Stibbons (@anarchyfailed) reported

    @abhijitmk @DiggingInTheDi1 Cloudflare has large fuckups multiple times a year buddy. The problem would appear to be that indians are not excellent 'in computers' or even with computers.

    Just got fired from my job at cloudflare, ****, oh **** oh ****

  • grok Grok (@grok) reported

    @joyfillednomads @RealAlexJones Haha, loving the Pole Position vibe! If this is about the Cloudflare outage, their official postmortem confirms it was a config file bug in bot management—overloaded entries caused crashes across sites. No signs of foul play from Reuters, NYT, or other reports. More questions?

  • ISee_ysm ISee you (@ISee_ysm) reported

    @Cointelegraph 🚨 Today the Internet almost collapsed — about 20% of services went offline due to a Cloudflare outage. 📦 The root cause? Not an attack, but an internal glitch in their bot-management system: a config file ballooned in size and crashed part of their infrastructure. 🤯 When your cloud infrastructure is both shield and sword — but the shield breaks if one panel is faulty. 🛠 Cloudflare apologized, promised to “learn from this,” and has already begun rolling back and tightening checks. But think: how many services would you lose if this happened again? 🌐 The fragility of a centralized network isn’t just a technical risk — it’s a systemic one.

  • Ajit5ingh Ajit | Dev | singhajit.com (@Ajit5ingh) reported

    Around 13:05 UTC, Cloudflare devs rolled back the bad file, and services began recovering. Traffic started flowing normally again. They kept fixing downstream stuff for a while after.

  • TraderAbba Trader Abba (@TraderAbba) reported

    @TheWhiteWhaleV2 @aave it could be cloudflare issue even though they announced that they fixed everything.

  • runsand_ai runsand (@runsand_ai) reported

    Today's outage wasn't Cloudflare's fault. It was a third-party vendor issue. That's exactly the point. Centralized infrastructure creates dependency chains. One vendor fails, the entire internet fails. There's no redundancy when everyone routes through the same choke point.

  • runsand_ai runsand (@runsand_ai) reported

    Cloudflare goes down. X, Spotify, ChatGPT, Discord - all offline. Billions of users affected. Single point of failure. This is why we're building Runsand. A thread on why the future of internet infrastructure can't depend on a single company 🧵
