    4. December 24, 2025 at 2:40 AM UTCidentified

      The fix is still rolling out. In the interim, root cause was an upgrade to our net-http library. That upgrade removed a default header, "application/x-www-form-urlencoded," from http requests our code issues to Cloudflare. The Cloudflare Turnstile API, which we use in conjunction with Captcha, expects this header to be present, and started rejecting our requests as a result.

    5. December 24, 2025 at 2:56 AM UTCresolved

      Our fix is now deployed and we're seeing normal volume of successful username/password logins.
