7.3
On February 20, 2026, Cloudflare experienced a six-hour service outage after a configuration change caused Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) withdrawals of about 1,100 Bring Your Own IP (BYOIP) prefixes. Engineers reverted the faulty Addressing API cleanup change and restored most prefixes by 20:20 UTC, with remaining prefixes manually restored by 23:03 UTC; roughly 25% of BYOIP prefixes were affected.
