Slackbot supposedly sends automatic replies to whole org via batch update

&gt; We determined that the rollout of a fix for an older bug report pertaining to Slackbot responses not working in org-wide or multi-workspace channels, was the root cause.<p>I&#x27;m not trying to be paranoid here but I work for a very large company. We got slackbot responses that looked a lot like phishing URLs. We got slackbot responses with broken english, and emojis we never use. I find it very hard to believe that this wasn&#x27;t a security incident.
