Heym before 0.0.53 Authentication Bypass via Telegram Webhook
Heym before 0.0.53 fails to verify the X-Telegram-Bot-Api-Secret-Token header on Telegram webhook endpoints when credential_id is absent or secret_token is empty. Remote unauthenticated attackers can post forged Telegram updates to trigger workflows with the owner's configured credentials and execute actions on attacker-supplied input.

Root cause
Authentication is added route by route instead of being enforced in one place. When a route added later bypasses the shared middleware, the session check never runs for it.
The bug in code
