Cloudflare Outage Caused by Database Permission Change

⚠️ Cloudflare suffered its worst outage in six years after a database permissions change caused its Bot Management system to generate an oversized configuration feature file containing duplicate entries. The file exceeded a hardcoded 200-feature limit, triggering a Rust panic that crashed core proxy software and produced widespread 5xx errors. Engineers restored service by replacing the problematic file, and full recovery was achieved several hours later.
