They state it's scheduled maintenance but the dashboard link leads to a 500 return. https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/
This is more likely the actual incident report:
A change made to how Cloudflare's Web Application Firewall parses requests caused Cloudflare's network to be unavailable for several minutes this morning. This was not an attack; the change was deployed by our team to help mitigate the industry-wide vulnerability disclosed this week in React Server Components. We will share more information as we have it today.
Don't deploy on Friday!
Although I'm sure there are people working at Cloudflare 24/7.
Y'all desperately looking for a reason to screech. Oh God, scheduled maintenance for an hour 🤣
Y'all 🤠🤠🤠🤠🤠
But also Cloudflare confirmed an issue: 
They have the world’s internet by the balls, and this weakness has really become apparent lately. This one looks like it may be even worse, as the 500’s are at a higher level. Not even branded custom error pages now.
Hahaha uh oh!
