CVE-2021-32702

Versions before and including `1.4.1` are vulnerable to reflected XSS.

MEDIUM 6.1EPSS 1.40%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.40%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

The Auth0 Next.js SDK is a library for implementing user authentication in Next.js applications. Versions before and including `1.4.1` are vulnerable to reflected XSS. An attacker can execute arbitrary code by providing an XSS payload in the `error` query parameter which is then processed by the callback handler as an error message. You are affected by this vulnerability if you are using `@auth0/nextjs-auth0` version `1.4.1` or lower **unless** you are using custom error handling that does not return the error message in an HTML response. Upgrade to version `1.4.1` to resolve. The fix adds basic HTML escaping to the error message and it should not impact your users.
