Hello dear Execution and Verification node operators,

If you are running a Flow **Verification** node and/or a Flow **Execution** node, please upgrade the docker tag to **v0.23.5** (or alternatively v0.23.5\_without-netgo) as soon as possible.

The `/var/flow/data` directory should **not** be deleted.

We will follow up with you on Discord/Slack on this as well.

Thanks,

Flow Team
