description

Better Auth versions from 1.4.0-beta.18 before 1.7.7 can confuse OAuth sign-in state with Magic Link tokens in specific database-backed state configurations. An unauthenticated attacker may obtain a session for a known user or create an account treated as email-verified when Magic Link, a built-in social or Generic OAuth provider, and the affected token and state settings are enabled.

mitigation

Upgrade better-auth to version 1.7.7. Until upgrades are complete, disable the affected Magic Link or database-backed OAuth state combination where possible.

fixed in 1.7.7
