Question

An AI wrote this Flask webhook handler for incoming payment events. The endpoint always returns 200, the team sees no errors in logs, yet some paid orders never get fulfilled. Find the bug and explain why it's invisible.

python
@app.route("/webhook/payment", methods=["POST"])def payment_webhook():    try:        event = request.get_json()        order = Order.objects.get(id=event["order_id"])        order.status = "paid"        order.save()        fulfill(order)    except Exception:        pass    return "", 200
What a strong answer looks like

Treat the AI’s output as a draft to verify, not an answer to trust. Name the specific flaw and the input that triggers it, say how you’d catch it — tests, edge cases, reading critically — and how you’d re-prompt or decompose to get it right.
