How to troubleshoot SC4S env_file corruption?

Hello all,

So I need help with a file corruption issue on my SC4S servers. I've had 2 SC4S servers running for several months with no issues.  Recently the contents in the /opt/sc4s/env_file has mysteriously changed that caused both SC4S servers to stop forwarding traffic, at different times.  My Linux admin confirmed no one manually changed the file, so I can't figure out how this is happening.  Has this happened to anyone else and if so how did you identify and fix the problem?

Thank you all in advance.
