info:
  name: Next.js Cache Poisoning
  author: Ice3man543
  severity: high
  description: |
    Next.js is vulnerable to cache poisoning through the x-middleware-prefetch and x-invoke-status headers. This can result in DoS by serving an empty JSON object or error page instead of the intended content, affecting SSR responses.
