Empty except clause swallowing JSONDecodeError/ValueError during body parsing; log or handle the exception instead of using 'pass'.

✨ AI Reasoning
A new try/except was added around JSON parsing of the request body. The except clause catches JSONDecodeError and ValueError but contains only pass, silently swallowing parsing failures. Silently ignoring errors during body parsing can hide parsing issues and make debugging or security analysis harder, especially since this code manipulates user-controlled input. The try block attempts to json.loads bytes and then falls through to other decoding logic; swallowing errors with no logging or handling loses visibility into why parsing failed.
