📋 Changes

This is the first step toward splitting the single, large EXAMPLES.md into per-use-case example files, so that users (and agents) can read only the section they need instead of the whole 240 KB document.

This PR extracts all Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) material into a new dedicated guide, examples/mfa.md, with no change to the content itself.

New file — guides/mfa.md

  • A title, short intro, a generated table of contents, and a back-link to the main EXAMPLES.md.
  • The three MFA blocks moved as is (no rewrites):
    1. Step-up Authentication — handling MfaRequiredError, MFA tenant configuration, MFA error types, mfaContextTtl configuration, session context.
    2. MFA management API — setup & configuration, accessing the mfa API (server/client), getting authenticators, enrollment (OTP/SMS/Email/Push), challenge, verify, and MFA error handling.
    3. Reactive MFA Step-Up (Popup)mfa.challengeWithPopup() usage, configuration options, CSP nonce support, and error handling.

EXAMPLES.md

  • Removed the three MFA content blocks.
  • Left a short pointer stub under the existing ## Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) heading that links to the new file (keeps the heading/anchor intact and gives readers scrolling the doc a signpost).
  • Collapsed the three MFA-related table-of-contents trees into a single entry pointing at examples/mfa.md.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

MFA documentation moved from EXAMPLES.md to guides/mfa.md. The guide updates step-up authentication, MFA Management API, and reactive popup examples. MFA tokens now use cookie-based handoff instead of redirect URLs.

Changes

MFA documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
MFA guide relocation
EXAMPLES.md, guides/mfa.md
Navigation links and the remaining MFA section now point to guides/mfa.md. Duplicate MFA content was removed.
Step-up authentication guidance
guides/mfa.md
Redirect examples POST mfa_token to a storage route before navigation. The Auth0 Action example uses event.user.enrolledFactors, protected grant and audience checks, and updated token TTL settings.
MFA Management API guidance
guides/mfa.md
The error-handling example stores mfa_token in a short-lived httpOnly cookie and reads it on the /mfa page. Token TTL references were updated.
Reactive popup step-up guidance
guides/mfa.md
The popup examples add TypeScript annotations and safe error handling. The options table documents prompt and an omitted scope default.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 50a56

The new MFA guide currently documents a session-unbound token flow that may allow reuse after the initiating login ends, and several examples can fail for valid MFA configurations or redirect flows. These security and correctness issues could lead to unauthorized MFA operations or broken authentication integrations, so the PR is not merge-ready until they are corrected.

In `@examples/mfa.md`:
- Around line 1-3: Add a relative back-link to EXAMPLES.md immediately after the
introductory heading or description in the MFA guide, using the established
examples-index link format.
- Around line 12-24: Merge the duplicate “Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)”
sections in the guide into one heading, combining their content without losing
any subsections. Rebuild the table of contents so it contains one MFA entry with
correct anchors, and ensure the reference near “MFA Tenant Configuration”
resolves to the intended merged section.
- Around line 72-80: Update the Full-page redirect example around the mfa_token
handling so the token is not embedded in window.location.href or any query
string. Pass it through a request body or header, or retain it server-side,
while preserving the MFA challenge flow.
- Around line 499-508: Update the client-component example imports to include
mfa alongside getAccessToken from `@auth0/nextjs-auth0/client`, so the existing
mfa.challengeWithPopup call resolves correctly.
- Around line 101-103: Update both onExecutePostLogin snippets in
examples/mfa.md to require the protected audience or scope in addition to
grantType === 'refresh_token' before challenging or enrolling for MFA. Preserve
the existing behavior for matching protected-resource requests while allowing
unrelated refresh-token exchanges to proceed without repeated mfa_required
failures.
- Around line 174-181: Update the MFA setup prerequisites to include enabling
the Auth0 tenant setting “Customize MFA Factors using Actions,” alongside the
existing configuration steps, so usage of challengeWithAny and enrollWithAny is
correctly documented.
- Around line 381-383: In the refresh-token branch, guard
event.user.enrolledFactors before the length check so an undefined value is
treated as an empty array. Update the condition around enrolledFactors to
preserve the existing behavior when factors are present without throwing when
Customize MFA Factors using Actions is disabled.
- Around line 110-115: Update the MFA setup documentation to keep Recovery Codes
consistent with both challengeWithAny arrays: either add enabling Recovery Codes
to the setup prerequisites, or remove the recovery-code entry from both arrays.
Apply the same choice to every affected challengeWithAny example.
- Around line 449-466: Update handleAction so mfa.challengeWithPopup is
initiated from a direct user gesture after MfaRequiredError, such as requiring
the user to click a dedicated step-up button; alternatively open the popup
synchronously before the asynchronous token and API requests, then complete the
MFA flow through that existing window.

Auth0 Post-Login Action event.user.enrolledFactors optional contract event.user multifactor

💡 Result:

In Auth0 Post-Login Actions, the event.user.enrolledFactors property is an array of authentication factors that a user has currently enrolled in [1][2]. This property provides a way to access a user's multi-factor authentication (MFA) status directly within an Action without requiring a Management API call [3]. Key points regarding event.user.enrolledFactors: Requirement: To use this property, you must enable the "Customize MFA Factors using Actions" setting in your Auth0 Dashboard under Security > Multi-factor Auth [3][4]. If this setting is disabled, event.user.enrolledFactors will be undefined [4]. Usage: - The array contains objects representing the active MFA factors associated with the user account [5][6]. - It is commonly used in conjunction with api.authentication.challengeWith or api.authentication.enrollWith to enforce custom MFA policies, such as requiring a specific factor based on user metadata or risk assessments [5][6][7]. - Note that event.user.enrolledFactors and event.authentication.methods are updated when an Action begins; to see the effects of a newly triggered enrollment or challenge, you must access these properties in a subsequent Action within the flow [5][6]. Regarding your query about the optional contract: When using api.authentication.enrollWith(factor, options), you can pass additional configuration, including an optional additionalFactors property, to specify which factors are permitted or should be presented during the flow [7]. For further implementation details, refer to the official Auth0 documentation on the Post-Login event object and customizing MFA enrollments [1][5].

Guard optional event.user.enrolledFactors.

If Customize MFA Factors using Actions is disabled, Auth0 leaves event.user.enrolledFactors undefined. This branch then throws when it evaluates .length, which can fail the refresh-token request. Default it to an empty array before checking its length. (auth0.com)

Auth0 Post-Login Action event.user enrolledFactors multifactor email factor documentation

💡 Result:

In Auth0 Post-Login Actions, you can access a user's multi-factor authentication (MFA) status using the event.user.enrolledFactors array [1][2]. This array contains a list of active authentication factors associated with the user's account [1][3]. To check if a user is enrolled in email MFA, you can inspect the type property of the objects within this array [4][5]. The email factor is represented by the type 'email' [4][5]. Example check in a Post-Login Action: exports.onExecutePostLogin = async (event, api) => { // Check if the user has enrolled in email MFA const isEmailEnrolled = event.user.enrolledFactors.some(factor => factor.type === 'email'); if (isEmailEnrolled) { console.log("User is enrolled in email MFA."); } }; Important considerations for using enrolledFactors in Actions: 1. Feature Requirement: You must enable the "Customize MFA Factors using Actions" setting in your Auth0 Dashboard under Security > Multi-factor Auth > Additional Settings for this data to be available in Actions [2][6]. 2. Timing: The enrolledFactors array is populated when an Action first begins [3][6]. If you trigger an MFA enrollment or challenge within your Action flow, the enrolledFactors list will not be updated until the next Action in the sequence [3][6]. 3. Email MFA Specifics: Email MFA is often handled differently than other factors; verified emails are typically registered as authenticators [7]. Note that email is not always treated as a mandatory "additional factor" in the same way as OTP or WebAuthn, and Auth0 may default to more secure factors when available [8]. 4. Data Persistence: The array includes all currently active factors [1][3]. It is updated whenever a user enrolls in a new MFA factor or when an administrator resets their enrollments [1][5].

Citations:


Use event.user.enrolledFactors ?? [] for this decision. enrolledFactors is the Action field that lists active MFA factors, including { type: "email" }. The current multifactor check can send an email-enrolled user to enrollWithAny() instead of challengeWithAny().

Auth0 Actions api.authentication.enrollWithAny supported factors email factor type

💡 Result:

The Auth0 Actions api.authentication.enrollWithAny method does not support email as a configurable factor type for manual enrollment [1][2][3][4]. Email MFA is treated differently than other authentication factors in Auth0: - Implicit Enrollment: Email MFA is implicitly enrolled when a user verifies their email address (e.g., via email verification flows or password resets) [3][4]. - Not a True Additional Factor: Because it is automatically tied to the user's verified email status, it is not considered a standard "additional factor" that you can manually trigger for enrollment through the enrollWith or enrollWithAny Actions APIs [3][4]. - Supported Factors: The enrollWithAny method supports factors that require explicit user enrollment, such as otp, push-notification, phone (with preferredMethod options: voice, sms, both), webauthn-platform, webauthn-roaming, and recovery-code [1][5]. If you attempt to include email as a factor type in the enrollWithAny array, it will not function as an enrollment request [2]. Instead, you should rely on the platform's automatic handling of Email MFA based on the user's verified email status [3][4]. If you require users to have an additional factor, you must use one of the supported types listed above [1][5].

Auth0Client uses mfaTokenTtl and AUTH0_MFA_TOKEN_TTL. Replace all mfaContextTtl and AUTH0_MFA_CONTEXT_TTL references in guides/mfa.md; the current names are not recognized and can leave the TTL at its default.

Type the error state as string | null.

The repository enables strict TypeScript checking. useState(null) infers error as null, but setError(err.message) assigns a string.

Build challengeWithAny from the enrolled factors.

When a user has only webauthn-platform or webauthn-roaming enrolled, enrolledFactors.length > 0 reaches api.authentication.challengeWithAny with no matching factor. Auth0 ignores unenrolled factors and the transaction fails. Map event.user.enrolledFactors to { type } and pass the result.

Force the refresh in the Server Action.

When a valid access token is cached for the requested audience, auth0.getAccessToken defaults to refresh: false and returns it without calling the token endpoint. The MFA Action does not run its refresh_token branch, so MfaRequiredError is not raised. Add refresh: true.

On the `/mfa` page, read the token back from the cookie (never from the URL) and pass it to the MFA methods documented below:

```ts
import { cookies } from "next/headers";
import { redirect } from "next/navigation";

import { auth0 } from "@/lib/auth0";

export default async function MfaPage() {
const mfaToken = (await cookies()).get("mfa_token")?.value;
if (!mfaToken) redirect("/"); // no pending challenge

// Use it to list authenticators, challenge, and verify (see below).
const authenticators = await auth0.mfa.getAuthenticators({ mfaToken });
// ...render your MFA UI

IDOR (CWE-639): Authorization Bypass Through User-Controlled Key (IDOR)

Reachability: External · Exploitability: Moderate

Bind the MFA token to the active session.

The standalone mfa_token cookie is not checked against the active session. The SDK logout flow does not clear this application-defined cookie. A different user on the same browser can submit the previous user’s still-valid MFA token until maxAge expires.

Store a server-side token reference keyed to the SDK session, or add explicit session binding. Clear it on logout and successful verification.
