"A change made to how Cloudflare's Web Application Firewall parses requests caused Cloudflare's network to be unavailable for several minutes this morning. This was not an attack; the change was deployed by our team to help mitigate the industry-wide vulnerability disclosed this week in React Server Components."
The bug is known since several days, and the hotfix was already in place. So they worked on the "final fix" and chose to deploy it on a friday morning.
