My work encountered this same sort of thing after an outage. Our Redis instance or client got confused. If a=b and c=d in our cache, a request for a returned d randomly.

We quickly realized that cache is fast but not infallible. Use proper security on all your resources. Don’t rely on UUIDs to obfuscate your data as security.
