Cloudflare Provider (cloudflare-eth.com) keeps throwing errors

[mujtaba1747]

I keep getting errors from ethers js on my backend server. I'm not using cloudflare provider explicitly, but it looks like the cloudflare provider is hard-coded into the ethers js library.

Here's what the error looks like:

TypeError: Cannot read property 'number' of null
    at CloudflareProvider.<anonymous> (/home/ubuntu/foo/backend-server/node_modules/@ethersproject/providers/src.ts/cloudflare-provider.ts:37:26)
    at step (/home/ubuntu/foo/backend-server/node_modules/@ethersproject/providers/lib/cloudflare-provider.js:46:23)
    at Object.next (/home/ubuntu/foo/backend-server/node_modules/@ethersproject/providers/lib/cloudflare-provider.js:27:53)

    at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:97:5)

Version: 5.0.18
Could there be some way to stop using cloudflare provider in the first place

On a separate note,
Some weeks ago I kept getting this error, again related to cloudflare-eth. However, this error comes and goes. Depends on the external API.

requestBody="{\"method\":\"eth_getBlockByNumber\",\"params\":[\"latest\",false],\"id\":42,\"jsonrpc\":\"2.0\"}", requestMethod="POST", url="https://cloudflare-eth.com/", code=SERVER_ERROR, version=web/5.0.9)
