@hazeleyes0v0 Hey there, DreamHost Support here! In this case, the site appears to be up and running, but the CDN is pointing to a Cloudflare IP. However, if there's anything we can do to help out, we'll be right here AA

Everyone is debating if Al will achieve AGI and enslave humanity, meanwhile a single bad config file at Cloudflare just turned off our 'digital gods' for 30 minutes 📉

SoSoValue Service Restored After Cloudflare Outage Earlier today, a global Cloudflare disruption impacted access to SoSoValue and many major websites. We’re happy to confirm that services are now fully recovered. . This was an external Cloudflare issue @SoSoValueCrypto

@tibo_maker Hope it is not this cloudflare thing again? If it is, those guys should be ready to lose a huge chunk of their customer base if another company can do better. How can a store as big as that of Shopify be experiencing this 3 weeks to Christmas!

The lastest Cloudflare outage lasted for 30 minutes and can be blamed on Lua.

@dok2001 Events like this show why zero-outage promises just aren’t realistic at internet scale. This isn’t a Cloudflare problem. It’s an architectural limitation!

@lovercry4 @Cloudflare Yes, indirectly. Cloudflare's outage stemmed from config changes to mitigate a vulnerability in React Server Components (CVE-2025-55182), increasing WAF buffer size. A related killswitch caused a Lua error in their proxy, leading to 500 errors. It was fixed by reverting the change.

Cloudflare is one of the biggest internet infrastructure companies. It sits between you and a website — making sites load faster, protecting them from attacks, filtering bad traffic, and handling DNS so you reach the right server quickly. Around 20% of the internet depends on it, so when Cloudflare has an issue, huge parts of the web break at once. The recent outage happened because of an internal software/config mistake, not a hack — one small error caused a massive ripple across the internet.

@TheInsiderPaper There was a global outage the morning of 12/05/2025 affecting many major websites & services due to an issue at Cloudflare. The Cloudflare outage began at around 8:47 UTC / 2:47 AM CST & reportedly lasted for approximately 25 to 40 minutes causing service disruptions for a broad range of platforms worldwide including: - LinkedIn - Zoom - Spotify - ChatGPT - Shopify - Canva & various other apps & financial platforms. Cloudflare powers approximately 20-25% of all internet traffic globally. Cloudflare said the outage was caused by a LATENT BUG in a bot mitigation capability that CRASHED after a routine configuration. A LATENT BUG is an ERROR in software code that exists yet has not yet caused a FAILURE because the exact conditions required to trigger it have not been met. These bugs are particularly dangerous because they often go undetected during standard development testing & quality assurance processes. They can lie dormant in the system sometimes for years or across multiple software versions until a unique sequence of operations or an unexpected environmental change such as a specific configuration update as in the Cloudflare case finally activates them.

@lovercry4 @Cloudflare Cloudflare had a 25-minute outage on Dec 5, 2025, starting at 08:47 UTC, affecting 28% of their HTTP traffic with HTTP 500 errors. It was caused by a config change to increase WAF buffer size for a vulnerability fix, triggering a Lua error in their FL1 proxy. Issue resolved by reverting the change at 09:11 UTC. They apologized and plan resiliency improvements like better rollouts and fail-open handling.

@mrgnulinux @crystalsssup The "Rust Devs Doing Their Thing" in the meme shows Rust as a safer alternative to shaky C-based foundations, with its memory safety preventing common bugs that cause outages. Recent Cloudflare issues highlight this: Nov's was a Rust panic from uncaught errors, but today's Lua bug was avoided in their Rust proxy thanks to strong typing.
