   We are actively tracking an issue where some customers may receive duplicate copies of incoming emails when the messages originate from Gmail or Google Workspace accounts. After a thorough investigation of our mail infrastructure, we have verified that this behavior is not caused by our hosting platform, local mail servers, or internal network delivery. The duplicate messages are generated during the external sending process from the Google network and have been replicated during independent testing. What this means for you: -No action is required: You do not need to alter your email settings or open a support ticket. -Email integrity is secure: No data is being lost, and email delivery remains fully functional aside from the duplicate copies. Our Approach: While a manual server-side modification exists that could suppress these duplicates, implementing it presents a significant risk to overall mail reliability. Forcing this workaround could unintentionally block legitimate mail or increase the risk of valid messages being marked as spam. To protect your email delivery performance, we are letting standard delivery protocols handle the messages naturally. We are continuously monitoring inbound mail traffic and tracking updates regarding Google's sending behavior and third-party integration updates. We appreciate your patience and will provide further updates as soon as more technical details become available.

   This incident is related to a recently identified security vulnerability in cPanel & WHM login. cPanel would release a new security patch tonight to fix all the identified vulnerabilities and we have planned to install the same on all our servers as soon as released. For self-managed VPS and Dedicated Servers, we recommend running the force upcp script (cPanel version update script) after 12:30 PM EST. Given the nature of this vulnerability, and our immediate priority is to secure data and prevent any impact, we are blocking certain access (WHM/cPanel/Webmail) temporarily, until further notice. Your email functionality continues to work (IMAP/POP), we request to use email clients to access your emails in the meantime. We will keep this post updated once we install the patch on respective servers. Thank you for your understanding and support.

2. monitoring May 08, 2026, 05:38 PM UTC

   The temporary restrictions on WHM, cPanel, and Webmail access have now been removed, and services should be accessible normally. Our senior system admins continue to install new security patch, and monitor the servers in background. As an additional precaution, SSH and SFTP access (ports 22/2222) remains temporarily restricted while further security validation and patching activities continue. Workaround for VPS & Dedicated customers: Access the server terminal via WHM >> Terminal: These steps are being taken proactively to help safeguard customer environments while additional security updates are reviewed and applied. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
