## Overview

## Impact

Crafted requests targeting Next.js applications using App Router built with Turbopack and a **single** entry in `config.i18n.locales` can bypass middleware/proxy based authentication.

## Workarounds

If you cannot upgrade immediately, enforce authorization in the page's server-side data path instead of relying solely on middleware.

## Affected packages

- `next >= 16.0.0, < 16.2.11`

## Remediation

Upgrade to a patched release:

- `next 16.2.11`
