From eval() to ast.literal_eval(): Closing a Code Injection Door in Slack Data Processing

A medium-severity vulnerability was discovered in a Slack data processing component where the use of Python's built-in `eval()` function to parse error message dictionaries could allow an attacker to inject and execute arbitrary code. The fix replaces `eval()` with the safer `ast.literal_eval()`, which safely evaluates only Python literals without executing arbitrary expressions. This change eliminates a critical attack surface that could have been exploited through crafted error messages return
