npm: DNS misconfiguration cached in ISP DNS caches
Timeline of updates
- resolved
Global DNS caches are now reporting correct records and we have seen a return to normal incoming traffic levels. If you are still seeing DNS, SSL or other network related issues please get in touch through our support channels.
From npm’s published incident history: for incidents before Rewindex began polling this status page, only the final update text is available.
Archive proof
Rewindex commits each version of an incident it captures to a daily checkpoint, chains it to the day before, and has the checkpoint timestamped by FreeTSA and DigiCert.
How the archive is checked, and what it cannot prove.
This incident predates live tracking (October 17, 2026). It came from the vendor’s own published history, which is not covered by checkpoints.
Impact, status and times are the vendor’s own, as last archived. View on status.npmjs.org (opens in new tab).
