    Elevated latency in IAD region for connections from AWS us-east-1

    1. 21 août 2025 à 19:39 UTCmonitoring

      An upstream WAF provider is experiencing increased latency in the IAD region, which appears to be primarily affecting connections from AWS us-east to our API endpoints. Most traffic has been rerouted to nearby regions, so siteverify endpoints from servers connecting from AWS us-east regions that do not use our PrivateLink or Direct Routing options may see 20-50ms of increased latency until IAD is restored. Impact appears to be less than 0.005% of total requests, but may be concentrated on some network links.

    2. 21 août 2025 à 19:47 UTCresolved

      We are no longer seeing elevated latency in IAD.

      Due to an incident at an upstream CDN provider starting at 18:00 UTC, we are observing elevated P99 latency (+100-200ms) on a minority of traffic in the Eastern US and Western Europe regions, caused by some traffic being rerouted to more distant POPs. We have put overrides in place and will continue to monitor performance; there is no impact to availability and no action is required.

      P99 latency has returned to norm as of 20:05 UTC.

    China region endpoints: elevated error rates

      At Mar 22 01:21:56 2024 GMT, some users of dedicated mainland China region endpoints experienced an expired certificate error on some endpoints. The root cause has been identified and addressed. Global traffic was unaffected.

    Reminder: Please ensure your server's root CA certificates are up to date

      hCaptcha APIs use several SSL certificate authorities, maintaining both primary and backup certificates; our CAA record is authoritative. We also automatically rotate certificates every three months as part of our security best practices. We received several reports today from customers running servers with outdated root CA entries. They either needed to update these after our most recent automatic certificate rotation, or had locked their validation for our endpoints to a specific certificate chain rather than relying on CA validation and our CAA records. Please ensure your servers calling the siteverify endpoint have an updated root CA store. This is an important security practice, as root CAs are occasionally compromised and removed from OS vendors' stores. Similarly, if you would like to enforce additional restrictions on validating our TLS certificates, please rely on the CAA record rather than hard-coding a specific intermediate chain.

      Some sites consuming hCaptcha risk scores briefly experienced an elevated score distribution, affecting approximately 3% of traffic. This incident was fully resolved by 01:28 UTC. This issue and its root cause have now been addressed, and adjustments scheduled to prevent any similar incidents in the future.

      Error rates for some users located in mainland China and using dedicated regional routing endpoints were elevated during a rerouting event triggered by failures at an upstream provider. Mainland China users accessing standard global and first-party endpoints were unaffected.

    1. 8 novembre 2022 à 15:11 UTCresolved

      A behavior change in an upstream deployment workflow caused some paths related to WAF customers' asset host paths to temporarily de-route. While most requests (>99%) were re-routed automatically with no user-visible impact, some WAF customer sites using custom asset hosts failed to load images for visual challenges. This issue has now been resolved.
