We would like to update that after additional investigation, the impact would manifest in delayed and sometimes failed host jobs, which could include many different actions on Linodes and not only impacting attaching and detaching Block Storage volumes as we mentioned in our initial update, we have updated the title to reflect the updated impact. We are working quickly to implement a fix, and we will provide an update as soon as the solution is in place.
