How to fix?

Upgrade next-auth to version 3.29.10, 4.10.3 or higher.

Overview

next-auth is an Authentication for Next.js

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Authorization in EmailProvider. This is if an attacker can forge a request that sends a comma-separated list of emails to the sign-in endpoint - NextAuth.js would send emails to both the attacker and the victim's e-mail addresses. The attacker could then login as a newly created user which means that basic authorization like email.endsWith("@victim.com") in the signIn callback would fail to communicate a threat to the developer.
