They state it’s scheduled maintenance but the dashboard link leads to a 500 return. https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/
You’re linking to the wrong status page item, the outage was totally unrelated to that maintenance. If you look at cloudflare maintenance history, they do that exact type of maintenance all the time.
The screenshot was before the proper outage was reported and the status was just so people could follow if/when the situation changed
This is more likely the actual incident report:
A change made to how Cloudflare’s Web Application Firewall parses requests caused Cloudflare’s network to be unavailable for several minutes this morning. This was not an attack; the change was deployed by our team to help mitigate the industry-wide vulnerability disclosed this week in React Server Components. We will share more information as we have it today.
Edit: If you like reading
Don’t deploy on Friday!
Although I’m sure there are people working at Cloudflare 24/7.
If your web service is affected by this, then you are the problem. Cloudflare has proven itself to be highly unreliable. It is a mistake to keep using it.
