# Timeline
_Times are in Pacific Time_
**Jul 13, 2023**
**09:44** A new feature related to sending inline attachments was released
**18:33** The first detection of a send using the feature since the change
**Jul 14, 2023**
**10:21** A user reported some of their recipients were receiving unexpected inline attachments on their emails
**10:45** Customer Support notifies on-call engineers and the incident is escalated
**11:00** Status page updated
**11:10** Resolved the issue by reverting to the previous version of Sendwithus
**12:40** Underlying issue identified
**13:00** Engineering team began an investigation to determine total user impact
**17:00** First emails to personally reach out to impacted users sent
# Root Cause Analysis
**Problem:** A user has reported that some of their emails contain an unexpected attachment. Why?
**Reason:** Recent changes were made to our systems to support sending an arbitrary number of inline attachments. This change introduced a bug which resulted in a variable being reused for subsequent emails sent by the same process. Why?
**Reason:** An optional parameter in a function definition had a default reference-type value. The issue was not identified before deploying to production. Why?
**Reason:** Our current testing, linting, and code review processes were not sufficient to identify the problem.
# What can be improved
* Changes are being made to our testing and linting processes to catch this category of bug in our CI pipeline
* The transient nature of inline attachments and a lack of thread/process level identification in our archived transaction logs has made it difficult to identify exactly which customers and emails were affected. Due to this only the maximum number of _potential_ impacted emails can be identified
* Increased controls to improve cross-tenant isolation of information
# Corrective actions
* The problematic change was quickly identified and reverted after we became aware of the issue
* Changes have since been made to the codebase to reduce the probability of similar issues manifesting elsewhere
