    A change made to how Cloudflare's Web Application Firewall parses incoming requests caused Cloudflare's network to be unavailable for several minutes this morning. This change was deployed by Cloudflare's team to help mitigate the industry-wide vulnerability disclosed this week in React Server Components. CloudFlare has issued a detailed statement on this matter here: [https://blog.cloudflare.com/5-december-2025-outage/](https://blog.cloudflare.com/5-december-2025-outage/)
