Update timeline

  1. investigating Nov 03, 2025, 04:47 PM UTC

    Some customer Self-Service Portal homepages were showing other customers' homepage content. Other pages (search, article, product pages) remained functional. Workaround: avoid the homepage. Append a language code, or add a query character such as ?, to force a fresh render.

  2. identified Nov 03, 2025, 05:07 PM UTC

    Root cause narrowed to CDN cache contamination triggered by a configuration rollback. The contamination affected homepage edge cache only.

  3. monitoring Nov 03, 2025, 05:10 PM UTC

    Self-Service Portal homepages are now returning correct content after cache purges. We are monitoring edge cache consistency and user reports for recurrence.
