Our customer care team are currently experiencing a higher-than-usual support workload as a result of ongoing security updates related to recent up-stream cPanel vulnerabilities.

We thank you so much for your patience with our team, and your understanding while we continue to assist affected customers.

We are aware that some customers may be temporarily unable to log in to WHM/cPanel due to a system update. Access via ports 2083/2087 is currently unavailable while this work is carried out.

We appreciate your patience and will update you as soon as normal access resumes. If you need any urgent assistance, please reach out to us.

The root cause of this incident has been identified as an issue originating from cPanel and is outside of our direct control. It has impacted cPanel users globally across all vendors. cPanel have released a patch to address the problem, and our team is actively applying this update across affected systems as a Priority 1 task. We are continuing to make steady progress toward full resolution. Importantly, your website availability and core services remain fully operational. This issue is limited to cPanel access only. Sending and receiving emails, as well as website functionality, should continue to operate normally during this time. We are here to help you through this and will continue to provide updates as progress is made and will confirm once full access has been fully restored. Thank you for your patience and understanding while we work closely with our upstream provider to resolve this matter.

Patches are currently being deployed across our servers and affected systems, and access to cPanel is beginning to recover. Login functionality has already returned to normal for some customers.
