Update timeline
- investigating Oct 21, 2026, 01:50 PM UTC
Due to a worldwide active exploit in part of the software we use in our infrastructure we have turned on an extra level of security on all CMS instances. This will require an extra user/password for all users of Labrador. This will not affect readers or external services using our front APIs, but it WILL be needed for all requests to your CMS, including CMS-APIs. We will share the required credentials to all customers, but if you have not received it yet, send an email to [email protected]
