Insufficiently Protected Credentials

auth0-js is an Auth0 headless browser sdk

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Insufficiently Protected Credentials. In the case of an (authentication) error, the error object returned by the library contains the original request of the user, which may include the plaintext password the user entered. If the error object is exposed or logged without modification, the application risks password exposure.

How to fix Insufficiently Protected Credentials?

Upgrade auth0-js to version 9.13.2 or higher.

Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF)

auth0-js is a Client Side Javascript toolkit for Auth0 API.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks if the Legacy Lock API flag is enabled.

Once the user credentials are verified, an HTML form is rendered into the user’s browser. A JSON Web Token (JWT) is POSTed to the /login/callback endpoint, and it maintains state regarding the identity of the user. Due to the lack of session binding, this form post is susceptible to CSRF. An attacker with valid user credentials at an Auth0 tenant can use them to gain such a form, and then employ techniques such as social engineering or clickjacking to have a victim’s browser execute it.

Upgrade auth0-js to version 9.0.0 or higher.
