The note included leading figures in the party who were name-checked over their alleged behaviour since Jeremy Corbyn took the party's top job.
The leader's campaign team, which issued the press release, later distanced itself from the document saying it was a draft that had not been signed and was issued accidentally.
A complaint by an unnamed MP to the party's chief whip and general secretary said the action amounted to "harassment and bullying by the leader of the parliamentary party" and warned it was "not acceptable for Labour MPs to be deliberately victimised by the leader of our party in this way".
Speaking on Premier's News Hour Daniel May-Miller from Christians on the Left said: "It undermines relationships and it undermines trust, and well, what does it say in Matthew? If your brother sins against you go and tell him between you and him and try and resolve it.
"I think that when things like this happen publically it just causes a lot of hurt to people."
Furious MPs said the move was "shabby" and "trial by troll".
But during a televised leadership hustings on Sky News, Mr Corbyn dismissed the criticism.
He said: "There was information put out there which is statements that colleagues made on the record and it's all stuff that is out there on the public record."
The campaign team has apologised to the party's deputy leader, Tom Watson, but it is not clear if that has been extended to the other MPs listed.
Mr Corbyn's team reissued the document without the list of MPs and the "misdemeanours" they had been listed for.
Neil Coyle, MP for Bermondsey and Old Southwark, who was among those criticised, said he was "fuming".
The results of the leadership contest will be announced on Saturday September 24th as party members gather in Liverpool for Labour's annual conference.
May-Miller said the list had "made politics personal in the worst possible way" rather than "setting the example that hopefully we want to set".
