Cloudflare experienced its second major outage within a monthbriefly disrupting several internet services worldwide. The company has now confirmed that the issue has been fully resolved, restoring access to essential apps and platforms that were affected.

The outage, which lasted roughly 30 minutesimpacted Cloudflare’s Dashboard and related APIs. During the blackout, the company posted an advisory on its status page stating:
“Cloudflare is investigating issues with Cloudflare Dashboard and related APIs. Customers using the Dashboard / Cloudflare APIs are impacted as requests might fail and/or errors may be displayed.”

Soon after, Cloudflare said:
“A fix has been implemented, and we are monitoring the results.”

Finally, the company confirmed that:
“This incident has been resolved.”

Cloudflare CTO Dane Knecht also addressed the issue on X, clarifying that the disruption was not an attackbut rather tied to internal adjustments made while mitigating a recent React-related security vulnerability (CVE). Knecht assured users that a full explanation will be shared via a detailed blog post.

How the outage impacted users

The outage triggered widespread disruption across platforms that rely on Cloudflare’s infrastructure. Several major apps and services — including Canva, Zerodha, Angel One, and Groww — experienced downtime, with users reporting:

• Inability to log in
• Errors while placing trades
• Live market data not loading
• Websites showing 5xx error messages

Trading platforms saw the biggest impact as thousands of users struggled to execute transactions during market hours, leading to frustration and social media complaints.

With Cloudflare now confirming full restoration, services connected to its network have gradually come back online. Users of impacted apps should now be able to access features normally.
