Description

A security researcher found an unpublished vulnerability in one third-party WordPress plugin used by the academy.apnic.net web site, and whilst confirming the vulnerability inadvertently updated the Academy home page. This resulted in all requests to the Academy home page returning a page not found message instead of the usual content.

The vulnerable plugin has since been disabled and the plugin authors have been notified.

We apologize for the loss of facilities and any inconvenience caused. Should you require assistance in dealing with any problems arising from this outage, please contact the APNIC Helpdesk.
