SCA: security update for @auth0/nextjs-auth0 (GHSA-954c-jjx6-cxv7)

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 413042

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - The Auth0 Next.js SDK is a library for implementing user authentication in Next.js applications. Versions
 before and including `1.4.1` are vulnerable to reflected XSS. An attacker can execute arbitrary code by
 providing an XSS payload in the `error` query parameter which is then processed by the callback handler as
 an error message. You are affected by this vulnerability if you are using `@auth0/nextjs-auth0` version
 `1.4.1` or lower **unless** you are using custom error handling that does not return the error message in
 an HTML response. Upgrade to version `1.4.1` to resolve. The fix adds basic HTML escaping to the error
 message and it should not impact your users. (CVE-2021-32702)
