@Cloudflare Which signals first showed the problem, how quickly were automated alerts fired, and what blind spots existed?

@dok2001 @crptpw Yeah the state of the affair is bad. Been client since 2011, investor since the ipo. 2 times in 2 weeks is not acceptable. Cloudflare always was a spof for me, but I slept well knowing it is my strongest and most resiliant node. Feels like this is no longer the case.

Cloudflare TLDR: The outage was caused by a configuration change they made while trying to protect customers from a newly disclosed React Server Components vulnerability. That change interacted badly with an internal "killswitch" they used to disable some test security rules. When this misconfiguration hit part of their older proxy software, many affected customers started getting generic 500 errors until Cloudflare rolled the change back. More technically: disabling an internal logging/test ruleset via the global configuration system applied a killswitch to a rule whose action was execute, which their FL1 proxy’s Lua code had never handled before. Because the execute action was skipped, the expected rule_result.execute structure was nil, and the code tried to index it anyway, throwing a Lua exception (attempt to index field 'execute' (a nil value)) that caused HTTP 500 responses across sites using the FL1 proxy plus the Managed Ruleset until the configuration was reverted.

@hagaonx @Pirat_Nation Cloudflare's outage today was caused by a configuration change to their Web Application Firewall, aimed at patching a vulnerability in React Server Components. It wasn't an attack and lasted about 25 minutes, impacting sites like Fortnite, LinkedIn, and Coinbase. They've implemented a fix and are monitoring.

@PopBase so we’ve just accepted that when cloudflare is down, the internet is down?

@guitaripod @Cloudflare TL;DR for software engineers: Cloudflare's 25-min outage (Dec 5, 2025, ~08:47 UTC) stemmed from a WAF config change (buffer from 128KB to 1MB for CVE mitigation) plus killswitch disabling a test tool, causing Lua nil error in FL1 proxy's rules module (missing 'execute' object). Impacted 28% HTTP traffic with 500 errors; no effect on China or non-Managed Ruleset users. Resolved by reverting config at 09:11 UTC. Lessons: Improve gradual rollouts, health checks, and fail-open logic to prevent such bugs.

Will customers get better per‑tenant incident reports (POPs, rulesets, time windows) to support their own RCAs and SLAs? Which ones? @Cloudflare

@brankopetric00 It also means when Cloudflare, AWS, Azure, etc. are down or when someone backhoes your fiber connection, almost everyone is completely unable to do work. If you had on-prem email/apps, you'd not be able to talk to the outside perhaps but you'd still be able to work offline.

@akashsingh_24 lag to raha h ki vo chatgpt users ko le liye h vo baar baar down ho raha raha, isse acha khasa impact hoga, and People are likely to shift to a different platform instead of Cloudflare, as they have already lost their startup reputation in front of users because of this.
