Several authorities, including the city of Antwerp, the city of Ghent, and the Flemish government, have temporarily taken websites offline as a precaution. Consequently, the library website staden.bibliotheek.be is also temporarily unreachable.
Cultuurconnect, the organization managing the websites of Flemish libraries, is working on a secure solution. The website will be back online as soon as the issue is resolved.
The websites www.staden.be and www.stadenbon.be do not use PHP and are therefore unaffected by this security flaw. These websites remain safely usable. Other online services of the municipality are also being checked for potential risks.
It is currently unknown when the library website will be accessible again. Further updates will be provided via www.staden.be.
