This blog site has been NEGLECTED. The hosting provider has been hit by the CPanel vulnerability CVE-2026-41940 and my hosted files were part of what became “unrecoverable.” This would have been after April 29 but it took more than 2 weeks for me to notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The hosting support sent this response on my ticket when I reported that my site is unavailable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We sincerely regret to inform you that your account is among the small group (~3-4%) affected by a recent security incident. We understand the seriousness of this and truly appreciate your patience during this time.\n\nA critical cPanel\/WHM vulnerability (CVE-2026-41940) was actively exploited at a global scale.\nThe issue originated in the cPanel service layer (port 2083) , allowing unauthorized access before an cPanel official fix was released (CVE-2026-41940).\nData on both live server and backup storage was encrypted , and recovery is not possible in these cases.<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\nTwo nights later and a crash course in mysql+phpadmin this site is back online, plus minus a few comments. I couldnt locate the notepad theme so I am settling with this new spiffy Anarcho notepad theme, free of course. The main site<\/a>‘s download is redirecting to a page not found URL , and getting the theme uploaded from an export from the Github repository<\/a> was hitting the upload limit from the domain hosts because the export is more than the 2MB upload limit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
