   PHP Schwachstelle (PHP2Shell): Uploads vorübergehend deaktiviert Gainsight Customer Communities verwendet PHP. Am 20. Oktober wurden zwei kritische Sicherheitslücken in PHP selbst (CVE-2026-109618 und CVE-2026-109619, bekannt als PHP2Shell) vor dem offiziellen Fix aufgedeckt. Das PHP-Sicherheitsteam veröffentlicht den Fix heute, 21. Oktober, um 16:00 Uhr MESZ (14:00 UTC). Was wir getan haben: Deaktivierung aller Datei-Uploads in allen Communities, einschließlich Inline-Bildern, Profil-Avataren und Post-Anhängen. Setzen Sie zusätzliche Firewall-Schutzmaßnahmen gegen die Art der Anforderung, die in diesen Angriffen verwendet wird. Überprüfen Sie unsere Protokolle auf Anzeichen von Ausbeutung. Bisher haben wir keine Beweise dafür gefunden, dass die Schwachstelle auf unserer Plattform ausgenutzt wurde. Was passiert als nächstes: Wir werden das PHP-Sicherheitsupdate in unserer EMEA- und US-Infrastruktur anwenden, sobald es veröffentlicht wird. Nach dem Patchen führen wir eine vollständige Kompromissüberprüfung durch und teilen das Ergebnis hier mit. Wir werden Uploads wiederherstellen, sobald der Patch angewendet und verifiziert wurde. Lesen, Posten und Antworten Arbeiten wie gewohnt. Unser nächstes Update wird um 17:00 Uhr MESZ sein, oder früher, wenn sich etwas ändert.

1. 11. August 2025 um 10:21 UTCresolved

   Incident Summary: On 24 July 2025, we deployed a performance improvement designed to speed up page loading by changing when certain parts of our application load in the browser. As a result of this change, some page elements loaded later than before. Certain third party scripts used by customers depended on those elements being available straight away, so those scripts failed to run correctly. This caused integration errors and broken functionality for affected customers. Impact: Seven customers experienced issues with their integrations. In these cases, third party scripts could not access the expected page elements, which led to errors and features not working as intended. Timeline: - 24 July 2025 9:00 AM (CET) - Deployment completed with new loading behaviour as part of performance improvements. - 25 July 2025 - First customer reports of integration issues received. An internal investigation began to identify the cause. - 26 to 29 July 2025 - Investigation confirmed that lazy loading of certain elements meant they were not available when customer scripts ran. Compatibility checks were carried out to assess possible fixes and confirm the scope of the impact. - 30 July 2025 15:30 AM (CET) - Decision made to revert the change to restore the original loading behaviour. Reversion deployed to production. Monitoring confirmed resolution for all affected accounts. Impacted customers were contacted and confirmed the issue was resolved. Resolution: We rolled back the performance change so that all elements load as they did before. This restored the expected functionality for all affected customers. Mitigation and Next Steps: - Implement a compatibility aware rollout strategy for future performance changes. - Conduct an audit of existing third party scripts to identify other potential compatibility risks. - Include broader customer impact reviews before releasing performance optimisations. - Give customers and support teams more notice of significant changes that may affect integrations. Lessons Learned: There are a wide range of third party scripts in use across all customer instances, and changes to page performance can have unintended side effects. Future performance updates will be introduced in phased rollouts with additional compatibility checks, and customer impact will be reviewed more thoroughly before release.

    **Redis Cache Degradation and Service Impact - June 13, 2025** ### **Overview** On **June 13, 2025**, from **17:09 to 21:13 CET**, some of our services in the **US region** experienced significant disruptions due to a cascading infrastructure failure. The issue began with degraded performance in our Redis caching layer, triggered by underlying **AWS infrastructure instability**, and ultimately led to elevated error rates and service outages across several systems. ‌ ### **What Happened** A sudden degradation in our Redis cache - likely caused by transient **network issues within AWS infrastructure** - resulted in dramatically slower response times and dropped connections. As Redis became unavailable, systems attempted to query the main database directly, which caused that database to hit its connection limits and become overloaded. This caused broader performance issues across multiple services. ### **Customer Impact** * **High error rates** \(HTTP 5XX\) across several services in the US region * **Slower API response times** and degraded system performance * **Stale or delayed data** due to failed or missed caching * **Up to 4 hours of partial or full service disruption** * **No customer data was lost**, but availability and performance were impacted ### **Timeline of Events \(CEST\)** * **17:09** - Error rates spike and initial alarms trigger * **17:13** - Incident response begins * **17:30-19:00** - Teams work to stabilise the system, including service rollbacks and traffic load reduction * **18:38** - AWS confirms a related infrastructure/network event affecting Redis connectivity * **19:30** - Redis instance upgraded to a higher-capacity configuration * **21:10** - Services fully recover * **21:13** - Incident officially resolved ### **What Caused the Issue?** Our Redis cache experienced performance degradation and stopped serving traffic effectively. Based on internal logs and external confirmations, this was **likely due to transient network and infrastructure issues within AWS**, which impacted bandwidth and connection handling for Redis. As a result, traffic was redirected to the main database, which then became overloaded, creating a cascading service failure. ### **How Was It Resolved?** * Redis was scaled up to handle more traffic and recover performance * Non-essential services were temporarily paused to reduce system load * Once Redis recovered, database pressure eased and systems began returning to normal ### **Could This Have Been Prevented?** Partially. Some safeguards helped limit impact \(such as CDN caching for guest users\), but earlier detection of Redis degradation and better isolation between cache and core systems could have reduced downtime. The unexpected AWS infrastructure event contributed significantly to the incident’s scope. ‌ ### **Key Lessons and Next Steps** * **Improve monitoring and alerting** for Redis resource exhaustion and network saturation * **Isolate caching infrastructure** by service or use case to prevent single points of failure * **Enhance fallback logic** to reduce stress on primary databases when caching layers fail * **Work closely with AWS** to better understand and mitigate infrastructure-related disruptions * **Explore more resilient multi-layer caching strategies** to handle future spikes gracefully We sincerely apologise for the disruption and appreciate your patience. We are taking meaningful steps to strengthen our infrastructure and improve our detection and response capabilities to prevent similar events in the future.
