Lots of sites are down today over a PHP security issue. DebtKeeper doesn't run PHP, so nothing here is affected: your ledger, tributes and games are all up. If your usual platform is dark tonight, we're open.
🚨 Heads up, several adult sites are having problems right now. It’s not just you.
Two different things are showing up. OnlyFans and SextPanther are showing planned maintenance screens (intentional downtime). Other sites are throwing CloudFront errors, that’s Amazon’s CDN, so there could also be an AWS-side issue hitting some platforms at the same time. Whether the two are connected isn’t confirmed.
There’s also a separate security story going around this month about compromised certificates used to impersonate big sites (Ars Technica, Oct 20). No platform has linked it to today, so treat that as unconfirmed too.
Nothing to do but wait. While sites are flaky, don’t re-enter your login anywhere that looks off, and ignore any DM or email claiming to “restore” or “verify” your access. Outages are prime time for phishing.
Seeing it on other sites too? Drop them below.
