Reboot of cPanel Hosting - Scheduled Maintenance

15 August 2021 at 20:00 +0100

cPanel Hosting


Our cPanel hosting servers will be rebooted on Sunday between 20:00 and 23:00 BST on 15th Aug 2021 to install a number of critical updates. These updates patch vulnerabilities that meant any unprivileged user who exploited it could gain root privileges on the vulnerable host and any unprivileged user could exploit this vulnerability to crash systemd and the entire operating system.

A three-hour window is allocated. However, the actual downtime is typically less than 15 minutes.

Starting (15 Aug at 22:10 +0100) We are starting this work now

Complete (15 Aug at 22:33 +0100) This work is complete and all systems have returned to normal.
