Affected packages

• npm fastify-csrf: < 3.1.0 → fixed in 3.1.0

Description

Impact Users that used fastify-csrf with the "double submit" mechanism using cookies with an application deployed across multiple subdomains, e.g. "heroku"-style platform as a service. Patches Version 3.1.0 of the fastify-csrf fixes it. See https://github.com/fastify/fastify-csrf/pull/51 and https://github.com/fastify/csrf/pull/2. The user of the module would need to supply a `userInfo` when generating the CSRF token to fully implement the protection on their end. This is needed only for applications hosted on different subdomains. Workarounds None available.
