Software-as-a-service giant Salesforce was experiencing a massive service outage on Friday. A database script that Salesforce pushed out accidentally gave users broader access to data than their permissions levels should allow. The outage was brought on by a scripting error that affected all Pardot marketing automation software clients. Salesforce restored partial access to affected clients over the weekend, while admins continued to clean up the system on Monday. Some regular users remained incapable of logging into the system as of Monday morning as admins continued the restoration process.
