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.

Hi Dean!, Thanks for reply.
There is no workflow, it just a custom list. this list was created on 2008 year. After migration 2003 to 2010 there were no issue but after migration 2010 to 2016 this issue occurred. in the whole site collection there is no any custom code or else. please suggest.
today i have found modified by column is auto indexed. please best suggest solution or other R&D for the same. - Aug 17, 2017What Dean has advised is the most probable cause of your problem...bearing in mind you have a SharePoint 2016 in your hands, it's probable you have something running in your environment (Workflow, Event Receiver, custom code) that is the cause of this list item modifications
