We've temporarily disabled SSH access to our cPanel platforms to protect against a critical Linux kernel vulnerability.

What's affected:
SSH access to cPanel platforms

What's still working:
Web hosting and email services via HTTPS
Control panel access via HTTPS
All other services unaffected

Next steps:
We're monitoring vendor kernel updates. SSH will be restored once patched kernels are deployed and verified
