We have temporarily disabled Node.js applications across our cPanel and DirectAdmin hosting servers, as well as on Managed VPS services, as a precaution following a recently announced high-severity security vulnerability in Node.js.

This is a precautionary measure to protect customer data and server integrity. During this time, websites and applications that rely on Node.js will be unavailable. Other services on these servers, including PHP websites, email and databases, are not affected.

We are currently awaiting an updated, patched release from our software vendor. Once it is available, our team will roll out the patch, re-enable Node.js applications, and post an update here.

For more information about the vulnerability, please see the official Node.js security advisory: https://nodejs.org/en/blog/vulnerability/october-2026-security-releases

Your data security remains our highest priority. Thank you for your understanding and patience.
