Identified - Dear Valued Customer,

We are currently responding to a critical cooling issue affecting our Phoenix data center facility. If your services are hosted on Cloud Sites Phoenix. Your sites will remain unavailable until the underlying issue is fully resolved

A major chiller equipment failure has significantly reduced cooling capacity within the facility, and temperatures are continuing to rise. With external temperatures expected to reach approximately 100°F today, there is an increased risk of service disruption and potential hardware impact.
https://status.phoenixnap.com/incidents/dnjp5pfv2mmh - this is related to a facilities issue in the data center in Phoenix, Arizona.

Our teams are actively working with the data center provider to mitigate the situation and restore normal cooling operations. Replacement work is underway, but current estimates indicate repairs may take 10-16 hours or longer.

To protect customer infrastructure and reduce the risk of hardware damage or data loss, we may need to perform controlled shutdowns of affected systems if temperatures continue to increase. Where possible, we will prioritize orderly shutdown procedures rather than allow systems to remain exposed to unsafe operating temperatures.

At this time, customers with infrastructure located in the affected facility should prepare for potential service interruptions.
We understand the seriousness of this situation and the impact it may have on your business. Our teams are monitoring conditions closely, and we will provide additional updates as more information becomes available.

We apologize for the disruption and appreciate your patience as we work to protect your infrastructure and restore normal operations.

Sincerely,
Nexcess Support Team

Investigating - A high-severity reflected XSS vulnerability, CVE-2026-64638, has been identified in the WordPress login interface. Exploitation requires a victim to visit a specially crafted URL and, under specific conditions, could potentially lead to PHP code execution.

Impacted versions:
WordPress 4.7 – 7.0.2 (every release on every branch)
WordPress 4.6 and earlier — end of life, no patch available

Fixed versions:
WordPress 7.0.3
WordPress 6.9.6
WordPress 6.8.7
Equivalent minor releases on every remaining supported branch back to 4.7


Recommended Action
Customers are strongly encouraged to update WordPress core and ensure automatic security updates are enabled where appropriate. Since exploitation requires user interaction, customers should also remain vigilant against phishing attempts and avoid clicking suspicious or unsolicited links.
Customers with automatic security updates enabled should receive the applicable update automatically; however, we recommend verifying the currently running WordPress version.
There is currently no reported evidence of widespread exploitation in the wild. We will continue to monitor the situation and provide further updates if required.

If you need assistance or have any concerns, please contact our Support team.
