We are experiencing an issue currently affecting outbound Help Desk email communications. Inbound email services remain available and continue to operate as expected. Corrective configuration changes have been implemented, and our teams are actively working to resolve the remaining Spamhaus listing. While we do not yet have a confirmed ETA for resolution, we will provide further updates as progress is made.

We're aware of recently announced PHP vulnerabilities. We have mitigations in place, and have patched our managed services, including Web Hosting and Managed Hosting for WordPress. If you manage your own server or VPS, you'll need to apply the PHP update yourself. Latest updates and steps can be found at https://www.godaddy.com/resources/news/important-php-security-update-what-website-owners-need-to-do

The root cause has been identified as undersea cable issues affecting Azure infrastructure. The impact is highest for South Africa, which has the longest network path to Australia. Requests from South Africa to Azure DevOps organizations hosted in Australia are seeing an availability impact of around 6%. We expect improvement by October 26 and further recovery by November 4, though both dates are tentative due to technical complexity of the issue itself.

We are providing an update on the disruption affecting the Middle East (UAE) (me-central-1) Region. After a thorough assessment, we have determined that we are unable to restore access to the resources and data hosted exclusively in the mec1-az2 Availability Zone. We continue to work on recovering regional resources, as well as zonal resources hosted in the other affected Availability Zones (mec1-az1 and mec1-az3). Since the disruption began in March, most customers have been able to re-establish their operations in other Regions by restoring backups or copying data that remained accessible. AWS Support remains available to help customers who need assistance moving their applications to alternate Regions. We remain committed to supporting our customers in the UAE. We are working on replacing the affected infrastructure and will provide an update on the restoration of our services in the coming months. We have notified the relevant authorities and continue to work with them toward that goal.
