We're investigating a bug that caused some user-specific data to be accessible to the wrong users within the same workspace from 12:07-1:10am UTC. We are reviewing impact and will communicate with affected customers, but can confirm that there was limited exposure and no cross-workspace access. As a precautionary measure we logged out all mobile sessions that were active within this time period and force reloaded all desktop and web clients.
