Auth0 laravel-auth0 SDK has Insufficient Entropy in Cookie Encryption

GHSA-fmg6-246m-9g2v

What to do

Vendor fix available. Upgrade each affected package to the fixed version on its release line (auth0/login 7.21.0), redeploy, then verify what is actually installed.

This page has no inventory attached, so it cannot say whether you are affected. A vendor fix is not proof that your deployment is fixed.

Source description

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Impact In applications built with the Auth0 PHP SDK, cookies are encrypted with insufficient entropy, which may result in threat actors brute-forcing the encryption key and forging session cookies. Am I Affected? You are affected if you meet the following preconditions: - Applications using laravel-auth0 SDK, versions between 7.0.0 and 7.20.0 - Laravel-auth0 SDK using the Auth0-PHP SDK versions between 8.0.0 to 8.18.0. Resolution Upgrade Auth0/laravel-auth0 to version 7.21.0 or greater.

# Patch Next advisory brief: GHSA-fmg6-246m-9g2v

Advisory: Auth0 laravel-auth0 SDK has Insufficient Entropy in Cookie Encryption
IDs: GHSA-fmg6-246m-9g2v
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/ghsa-fmg6-246m-9g2v (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 14:39 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: High (CVSS 8.2)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: auth0/login 7.21.0. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- Packagist auth0/login: affected >= 7.0.0, <= 7.20.0; fixed in 7.21.0

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- Packagist auth0/login: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on auth0/login.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.

## Sources
- Verified: https://github.com/advisories/GHSA-fmg6-246m-9g2v (GitHub-reviewed advisory GHSA-fmg6-246m-9g2v lists affected ranges: Packagist auth0/login >=7.0.0 <=7.20.0)

Commands are suggestions: review each one before running it.
