Detailsinfo
A vulnerability classified as problematic was found in better-auth oauth-provider up to 1.6.4/1.7.0-beta.1. Affected by this vulnerability is an unknown part of the component OAuth Client Creation Endpoint. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a authorization vulnerability.

The product performs an authorization check when an actor attempts to access a resource or perform an action, but it does not correctly perform the check. This allows attackers to bypass intended access restrictions. As an impact it is known to affect integrity. The summary by CVE is:
Better Auth is an authentication and authorization library for TypeScript. Prior to 1.6.5, the clientPrivileges option documents a create action, but the OAuth client creation endpoints did not invoke the hook before persisting new clients. Deployments that configured clientPrivileges to restrict client registration were not actually restricted — any authenticated user could reach the create endpoints and register an OAuth client with attacker-chosen redirect URIs and metadata. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.6.5.
