Bugs Killed

Windows

Website calendar links blocked by firewall

Calendar links on the website would not open because the site's CDN domain was blocked in Firewall. Unblocking that domain restored the content.

Killed once by someone from XL.net, on 2026-08-28.

Affects

Versions

  • Windows

What you see

  • Links under the website's Judges tab would not open.
  • The page appeared to have blocked content instead of the calendar information.

Why it happens

Likely Firewall was blocking the domain used to deliver the site's calendar content and JavaScript.

When it shows up

A website's calendar or other link content fails to load until a firewall exception is added for the domain hosting that content.

You are in this case if:

  • The page's content is delivered from a CDN or JavaScript source.
  • Allowing the site's domain through Firewall restores the missing links or calendar content.
