sd/internal/instance/cache.go causes sd.Event.Instances to be shared between multiple observers:

https://github.com/go-kit/kit/blob/master/sd/internal/instance/cache.go#L71

func (r registry) broadcast(event sd.Event) {	for c := range r {	c <- event	} } 

but observers frequently directly modify the sd.Event.Instances they receive, for example sd/endpoint_cache.go contains this:

https://github.com/go-kit/kit/blob/master/sd/endpoint_cache.go#L54

...	// Happy path.	if event.Err == nil {	c.updateCache(event.Instances) ... func (c *endpointCache) updateCache(instances []string) {	// Deterministic order (for later).	sort.Strings(instances) 

The fix is to deep copy sd.Event every time it is shared. This requirement should probably be called out in the documentation as well if this is the expected behavior.

Test output before the fix:
