Description

Impact

Crafted requests targeting Next.js applications using App Router built with Turbopack and a single entry in config.i18n.locales can bypass middleware/proxy based authentication.

Workarounds

If you cannot upgrade immediately, enforce authorization in the page's server-side data path instead of relying solely on middleware.

Detection & mitigation playbook

Open-source dependency
  1. Detect

    Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for next, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.

  2. Fix

    Update next to 16.2.11 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-6gpp-xcg3-4w24 is resolved across your whole dependency graph.

  3. Workarounds

    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.
