Better Auth
An open-source full-stack authentication framework targeting modern web applications. It supports enterprise-grade authentication capabilities including SSO, SCIM, and audit logging, making it suitable for identity management requirements in B2B SaaS products.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Better Auth is an authentication library for modern front-end frameworks, responsible for handling registration, login, and session management.
The three open-source projects Pingvin Share X, Better Auth, and AshAuthentication all trusted the email field returned by the OAuth provider without confirming whether the email was verified (or without distinguishing the registration and linking flows), causing a stranger's OAuth login to be bound to someone else's account and achieving account takeover.
The demo uses Fal.ai to aggregate multiple models, generates thumbnails with GPT image 2.5, generates short videos with H3 Max Turbo, and uses Better Auth for authentication and Vercel for deployment.
Both AuthKit and Better Auth now have built-in SSO, SCIM, and audit logs.
AuthKit is a managed authentication service, while Better Auth is an authentication solution that leans more toward self-hosting and open source.
Managed solutions are more hassle-free in terms of provider coverage and operational responsibilities, but flexibility and cost are constrained by the vendor, while open solutions grant more control but require taking on more self-building and responsibility.
