Start: 2026-10-15T10:00:00+00:00 We are currently carrying out urgent maintenance on all of our core routers. The routers are being serviced one after another. During this work, network redundancy is reduced globally. We do not expect any service interruptions, but you may experience increased latency. This maintenance ensures the long-term security and stability of our infrastructure. We appreciate your understanding and thank you for your patience. We are still in the process of performing this maintenance. Thank you for your patience. In_progress2026-11-06T15:36:38+00:00
Start: 2026-11-09T06:00:00+00:00 Estimated end: 2026-11-11T15:00:00+00:00 During this time, technicians will be upgrading various power supply components, including the UPS system in NBG1-DC2 . The work should not negatively affect our server systems. You can see which data center your server is located in by doing a trace route (for example, by using https://dnstools.ws/).
Start: 2026-10-28T17:08:08+00:00 A critical security vulnerability has recently been identified in the EDK II UEFI firmware component (CVE-2026-97631, CVSS 9.5). Further details can be found in the advisory: https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/security/advisories/GHSA-99cj-7hg9-mp4m What is affected? The vulnerability affects systems that boot over the network using PXE. During the boot process, an attacker may be able to execute malicious code through specially crafted network packets, even before the operating system and its security mechanisms (e.g., Secure Boot) are active. Systems that are already running are not directly at risk; the vulnerability can only be exploited during a PXE boot. An official patch is not yet available. What do we recommend? As an immediate precautionary measure, we recommend avoiding reboots of your hosts until further notice if they use PXE boot. What happens next? We are currently analyzing the impact on our environment and developing further recommendations and additional protective measures. We will inform you promptly as soon as new findings or updates become available. Network filters have already been in place for cloud servers for some time. These protective measures are now fully implemented across our Cloud infrastructure, resolving the issue for Cloud. For dedicated (bare-metal) servers, we are continuing to explore ways to further expand these protective measures within our data center networks. The network filters described in our last update are now active at our network edge and between our locations. We are completing the rollout of the filters on cloud servers today. For dedicated (BareMetal) servers, we are currently evaluating how to extend these protective measures further within our DC networks. Until then, our previous recommendations still apply, especially for dedicated servers: Please avoid reboots where possible, and if a reboot is necessary, temporarily block incoming ICMP packets using the Hetzner Firewall.
