Detailed vulnerability description

The vulnerability allows a remote user to execute another user's flow and disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to improper access control in the /api/v1/responses endpoint and get_flow_by_id_or_endpoint_name helper function when handling requests that reference a flow by UUID. A remote user can send a specially crafted request with a victim's flow ID to execute another user's flow and disclose sensitive information.

The issue occurs only for UUID-based flow lookups; endpoint_name-based lookups apply a user ownership check.
