Cross-site Scripting in Auth0 Lock

Description

In versions before and including 11.32.2, when the “additional signup fields” feature is configured, a malicious actor can inject invalidated HTML code into these additional fields, which is then stored in the service user_metdata payload (using the name property).

Verification emails, when applicable, are generated using this metadata.

Recommendation

Update the auth0-lock package to the latest compatible version. Followings are version details:

• Affected version(s): < 11.33.0
• Patched version(s): 11.33.0
