Cloudflare Outage on November 18, 2025 — A Technical Breakdown

Описание: On November 18th, 2025, a global outage affected thousands of websites protected by Cloudflare.
This video provides a clear, technical, and fact-based breakdown of what happened — without speculation or exaggeration.

We examine how Cloudflare’s AI-driven bot management system malfunctioned, why feature files became corrupted, and how a single unwrap() call triggered a cascade of proxy crashes across the entire network.
You’ll learn how internal database tables were accidentally exposed, how the feature file exceeded system limits, and why the outage continued to flip between working and failure states for several minutes before becoming global.

This analysis highlights the fragility and centralization of modern internet infrastructure — and why even small coding mistakes can have massive real-world impact.
