MySQL Service Disruption via MySQL-community repo

Resolved - This incident has been resolved.
Apr 24, 21:09 EDT

Monitoring - We continue to actively monitor the situation related to unintended MySQL upgrades triggered via the MySQL-Community repo during cPanel nightly updates.

Our teams remain engaged with both the cPanel and MySQL teams, and their investigations are still ongoing.
The previously identified workaround continues to be applied on affected systems to prevent further impact, and we are closely observing system stability.
We understand the importance of a permanent resolution and will share further updates as soon as more information becomes available or once a fix is confirmed.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please reach out via Live Chat or by submitting a support case.
Thank you for your continued patience.
Apr 24, 01:20 EDT

Update - The cPanel nightly updates are triggering system updates, which has resulted in servers running MySQL 8.4 being upgraded to MySQL 9.7. This appears to be due to the official mysql-community.repo making MySQL 9.7 available, causing dnf/yum to recognise it as the latest version.

This issue stems from a bug within the MySQL repositories that is allowing automatic upgrades to the next major version. We have raised this with the MySQL team as well.

We are currently in touch with the cPanel team, who have opened an internal case and are actively investigating the matter. A workaround is being implemented on affected servers, and we will continue to provide updates here as more information becomes available.

If you have any questions or require assistance, please contact us via Live Chat or by submitting a support case.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Apr 23, 01:08 EDT

Identified - We are currently observing MySQL failure alerts across multiple servers. Initial investigation indicates the issue may be related to an automatic upgrade from MySQL 8.4 to 9.7 via yum on systems using the MySQL Community repository (mysql-community.repo). This upgrade via the mysql-community repo is likely contributing to the ongoing service disruptions.

We have identified the issue, and our teams are actively working on remediation and service restoration.

If you have any questions or require assistance, please contact us via Live Chat or submit a support case.

Security Hardening - Magento “PolyShell” File Upload Vulnerability Enhancements

Resolved - Our engineering teams have completed the planned security enhancements and hardening efforts related to the Magento "PolyShell" unrestricted file upload vulnerability across our managed environment.

With these measures now fully implemented, we consider this incident resolved.

As security is a shared responsibility, we recommend that customers review their Magento installations, ensure all updates and patches are applied, and take additional steps to further secure their applications.

If you have any questions or require assistance, please reach out via chat or support case.
Apr 15, 08:10 EDT

Update - Our engineering teams have made significant progress in implementing additional security enhancements related to the Magento "PolyShell" unrestricted file upload vulnerability. At this stage, we are nearing completion of all planned mitigation efforts across our managed environment.

The measures deployed, including strengthened file upload validation, enhanced malware scanning to detect files, stricter execution controls, and broader platform hardening, have significantly reduced the risk of exploitation.

While these mitigations provide strong protection, security is a shared responsibility. We strongly encourage customers to review their Magento installations, ensure all updates and patches are applied, and follow general security best practices to help keep their sites secure.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please reach out to us through chat or via case.

We will provide further updates if any additional actions are required.
Apr 9, 09:27 EDT

Investigating - Following the actions taken to prohibit execution of files exploiting the Magento “PolyShell” unrestricted file upload vulnerability, our engineering teams are continuing to implement additional security enhancements across our managed environment.

These efforts include strengthening file upload validation and execution restrictions, enhancing monitoring and detection mechanisms, and implementing additional hardening measures across Magento platforms. We are also conducting internal reviews to reduce potential attack surfaces and reinforce overall platform security.

These proactive improvements reflect our ongoing commitment to maintaining a secure and resilient hosting environment. While the initial issue has been addressed, we are taking additional steps to further strengthen our systems and help prevent future risks.

While the additional measures that we have deployed should reduce the risk for potential compromise, we strongly urge that our customers take proactive measures to review and secure their sites

If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to us through the following channels:
Live Chat: https://my.liquidweb.com/
Email: support@liquidweb.com.

We will continue to share updates as these enhancements are completed.

Apache Service Disruption Caused by immunify360-ea-php-hardened Repository Incompatibility

Resolved - All systems remain stable following remediation, and no new issues have been observed during the monitoring phase.
We will continue to track updates from the upstream provider, and once a patched package is made available, we will schedule maintenance windows to roll out these changes in the future.
Thank you for your patience.
Apr 15, 07:48 EDT

Monitoring - All identified affected systems have now been remediated, and patching efforts have been completed across the environment. Service stability has been restored, and we have not observed any new issues since remediation was applied.

At this time, we will be transitioning to a monitoring phase to continue observing system performance and ensure ongoing stability.

Once a patched package is made available by the upstream provider, we will schedule maintenance windows to safely deploy the permanent fix across all systems.

We will continue to provide updates if any new developments arise.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please reach out to us via chat or by opening a support case.

Thank you for your patience.
Apr 14, 22:28 EDT

Update - Patching and remediation efforts are ongoing across all affected systems. Our team has successfully stabilized a significant portion of impacted servers by disabling the incompatible repository where necessary, and we are continuing to review and remediate the remaining systems to ensure full stability.

We are actively investigating the root cause and working toward a permanent resolution, while closely monitoring system performance and service health throughout this process.

We will continue to provide updates as progress is made.

If you have any questions or need assistance, please reach out to us via chat or by opening a support case.

Thank you for your patience.
Apr 14, 20:33 EDT

Identified - We are currently investigating an issue affecting a subset of servers where the imunify360-ea-php-hardened repository is incompatible with certain packages installed on the systems. As a result of this incompatible update, Apache service stability may be impacted, and in some cases may require manual intervention to restore service on affected hosts. As an immediate step, we are turning off the imunify360-ea-php-hardened repository on affected systems to help restore service stability.

Our engineering team is actively monitoring for this condition and is working closely with cPanel and CloudLinux support to identify the root cause and implement a stable and permanent resolution.
