Framework CVE Check — Is Your Auth Gate the Part With the Bypass?
DevMeth checks the 48 known AI-code failure patterns — not a penetration test or a security guarantee.
What the issue is
Running a framework version with a known auth-bypass CVE while middleware is your only access control means a single spoofed request reaches every protected route anonymously — the gate and the vulnerability are the same file.
Why AI tools generate it
AI-built apps concentrate authorization in middleware because it is one file and the demo works; when a framework bypass lands, there is no second line to fall back on.
How DevMeth detects it
A code scan compares your pinned framework version against a curated advisory list (deterministic, no external feed) and flags versions inside a bypass band when no route-level session check exists anywhere.
Your framework version has a known auth bypass — and your only gate is the thing it bypasses
WHAT WE FOUND
C36 — masked sample
The fix, in three steps
Upgrade past the patched version for the advisory, and add session checks inside data-touching routes so middleware stops being your only gate. Three steps.
Run a free scan and each finding carries a paste-ready fix prompt you can act on.

Why flag this if I'm already on middleware?
Because middleware-only means one bypass covers every route. The check fires only when the version is inside a known bypass band AND no route-level check exists — defense in depth silences it.
How do I know which versions are affected?
The finding names the advisory and the patched floor per major version, from a pinned list curated by DevMeth — no feed to configure.
What's the fix?
Upgrade Next.js past the patched floor and add route-level session checks in your API handlers so access control doesn't hinge on one framework-managed file.
