Session cookie disclosure via missing cache headers
Published Jun 4, 2025 · Updated Jun 4, 2025
Improper caching in Auth0 Next.js SDK 4.0.1 through 4.6.0 allows remote attackers to receive another user's session cookie from a CDN. Session-setting, deletion, refresh, and user-session responses omit directives that prevent shared caching of Set-Cookie data. Exposure requires a caching CDN, absent application cache controls, and a victim request; a disclosed cookie enables session impersonation.
