    I'm sorry, but I don't quite understand the scenario you are describing. Are you seeing items in a custom list change without any user activity? If so, what exactly is changing? If not, please provide some more details.

        Normally, that could happen several ways:  a SharePoint workflow, , a Flow, a PowerApp or an actual user. 

        However, I have client who is reporting some strange behavior that is somewhat similar to this, in my case the have seen duplicated records appear without explanation. I'm trying to get more data for my case, but now I'm wondering if there is a bug.
