Real-World Exposure
How broadly this vulnerability is actually deployed: weekly install volume shows current usage, and reverse-dependency count shows how many other packages break if it stays unpatched.
@supabase/auth-jsnpmDescription
Impact
The library functions getUserById, deleteUser, updateUserById, listFactors and deleteFactor did not require the user supplied values to be valid UUIDs. This could lead to a URL path traversal, resulting in the wrong API function being called.
Implementations that follow security best practice and validate user controlled inputs, such as the userId are not affected by this.
Patches
Strict value checks have been added to all affected functions. These functions now require that the userId and factorId parameters MUST be valid UUID (v4).
Patched version: >= 2.69.1
Workarounds
Implementations that follow security best practice and validate user controlled inputs, such as the userId are not affected by this. It is recommended that users of the auth-js library always follow security best practice and validate all inputs, before passing these to other functions or libraries.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for @supabase/auth-js, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update @supabase/auth-js to 2.70.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms CVE-2025-48370 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Resolve every user-supplied path to its canonical form and reject anything that escapes the intended directory, and run the component under an account that has no read or write access outside the directory it legitimately serves.
