Report: "Inline Attachment Issue"

Last update
postmortem

# Summary Between 18:33 July 13th and 11:20 July 14th 2023 \(PDT\), inline attachments from a small number of emails were incorrectly attached to an unknown number of emails sent by other accounts. # Impact & Metrics | **Question** | **Answer** | | --- | --- | | What was the impact | Incorrect inline attachments were incorrectly attached to a maximum of 17% of overall emails sent by Sendwithus | | Who was impacted | A subset of Sendwithus users sending emails between July 13th 6:33 pm PDT and July 14th 11:20 am PDT may have been impacted | # Detection & Response‌ | **Question** | **Answer** | | --- | --- | | When was the incident detected | July 14th 2023, 10:21 am PDT | | How was the incident detected | An impacted user reached out to the Sendwithus Customer Support team and the incident was quickly escalated | # 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

resolved

A subset of emails sent between 2 am and 11 am PDT July 14th had incorrect inline attachments added to them. Our team has identified and resolved the issue. Sendwithus support will be reaching out to impacted customers.

Report: "Drip Campaign Issues"

Last update
postmortem

# Summary Due to an issue during a database migration on 2019-02-14, Drip Campaign activations failed to activate during a 27 hour period from 2019-02-14 12:50 PST to 2019-02-15 15:36 PST. Any Drip Campaign emails scheduled to send before the incident and any deactivations made with the API or automation triggers continued to work as normal. We apologize for any disruption this may have caused for our customers and their business. We have already notified all account administrators for effected accounts. ## What happened Our infrastructure team executed a planned data migration of the database responsible for Drip Campaigns. During this time all new Drip Campaign activations were to be made redundant across both the old and new datasets. An error in our code to configure this redundancy caused loss of data during this migration period. This ultimately prevented any new Drip Campaigns from properly activating. ## What was affected During the incident window: - Drip Campaign stopped activating via the API - Drip Campaign stopped activating via automation triggers - No new Drip Campaigns could be created ## Who was affected Any accounts that activated a Drip Campaign during the period above would have been affected. This includes Drip Campaign activations through the API and through Automation Triggers. If this was the case, your account administrator An email has been sent to your Sendwithus administrators if your account was affected. ## What Sendwithus is doing to fix it While do mistakes happen, it's most important to us that they're caught early so they can be swiftly corrected. To mitigate the likelihood of this happening in the future we will be: - Adjusting our alert thresholds for this particular issue. - Adding more thorough migration testing processes
