We will be performing kernel upgrades across all of our Linux VPS nodes. These upgrades address recently disclosed kernel vulnerabilities (CVEs) that cannot be remediated through our live patching process.
Impact: Your VPS will be unavailable while its host node reboots to load the patched kernel.
Expected downtime: Approximately 10–20 minutes per node. Each node will be rebooted gracefully, and your VPS will come back online automatically once the reboot completes.
Process: Upgrades will be carried out sequentially, a few nodes at a time, to limit the overall impact.
Because these are security-critical updates, we are unable to postpone or reschedule this maintenance for individual services.
UPDATE 2026-11-14 15:46: Most nodes are finished with the upgrades. We will continue with the rest tomorrow. Please contact us if your VPS is down.
