CVE-2022-24858 has a CVSS score of 6.1/10, rated MEDIUM. Review your exposure and patch according to your risk tolerance.

Which packages are affected by CVE-2022-24858?

CVE-2022-24858 affects the following packages: next-auth (npm), next-auth (npm). Ecosystems affected: npm.

How do I fix CVE-2022-24858?

Update next-auth to 3.29.2 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2022-24858 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

How do I detect CVE-2022-24858 in my npm dependencies?

Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for next-auth. O3's reachability analysis confirms whether the vulnerable code path is actually invoked in your application, so you act on real exposure instead of every transitive match.

How do I mitigate CVE-2022-24858 if there is no patch (or I can't update yet)?

If you can't upgrade right away: gate or disable the affected feature, validate untrusted input at the boundary, and avoid passing attacker-controlled data into the vulnerable path. O3's runtime protection blocks exploitation in production as an interim safeguard until the upgrade lands.

How does O3 Security protect against CVE-2022-24858?

O3 pinpoints whether CVE-2022-24858 is reachable in your code and exactly where to fix it, then blocks exploitation in production at runtime until the patched version is deployed.

Is CVE-2022-24858 actively exploited in the wild?

No public exploit code has been indexed for CVE-2022-24858 yet. This does not mean the vulnerability cannot be exploited — absence of public exploits does not imply safety. Apply the recommended fix and use O3 Security to monitor your exposure.

Description

next-auth v3 users before version 3.29.2 are impacted. next-auth version 4 users before version 4.3.2 are also impacted. Upgrading to 3.29.2 or 4.3.2 will patch this vulnerability. If you are not able to upgrade for any reason, you can add a configuration to your callbacks option. If you already have a redirect callback, make sure that you match the incoming url origin against the baseUrl.
