bug(nuxt): repeated Set-Cookie headers are overwritten by clerkMiddleware

Inizia da packages/nuxt/src/runtime/server/tests/clerkMiddleware.test.ts, soprattutto dalla riproduzione intorno alle righe 116-143, e ispeziona il percorso clerkMiddleware eseguito dall'handler H3. Esegui il test mirato con intestazioni di autenticazione simulate; il lavoro è completato quando entrambe le direttive Set-Cookie aggiunte rimangono disponibili nella risposta Nuxt.

Preliminary Checks

• I have reviewed the documentation: https://clerk.com/docs
• I have searched for existing issues: https://github.com/clerk/javascript/issues
• I have not already reached out to Clerk support via email or Discord
• This is a bug report directly related to Clerk

Reproduction

https://github.com/BalajiSriraman/javascript/blob/fix/nuxt-preserve-set-cookie-headers/packages/nuxt/src/runtime/server/__tests__/clerkMiddleware.test.ts#L116-L143

The package's existing clerkMiddleware.test.ts can reproduce this without a Clerk instance: mock authenticateRequest() with a Headers object containing two appended Set-Cookie values, run the H3 handler, then inspect response.headers.getSetCookie(). Only the last value remains.

Publishable key

Not applicable. This is a unit-level server middleware reproduction and does not make a request to Clerk.

Description

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a Headers instance and append two Set-Cookie values, such as an expired __clerk_handshake cookie and a refreshed __session cookie.
2. Return those headers from the mocked authenticateRequest() result used by clerkMiddleware.
3. Send a request through the H3 handler and inspect response.headers.getSetCookie().

Expected behavior:

Both cookie directives are present in the Nuxt response. Set-Cookie is a repeatable response header, and Clerk can return several cookie mutations from one authentication or handshake result.

Actual behavior:

Only the last cookie directive is present. clerkMiddleware iterates over the authentication headers and calls H3's setResponseHeader() for every value. That API replaces a previous value with the same name, so each Set-Cookie overwrites the preceding one.

This can leave an expired or stale Clerk handshake cookie in the browser when its deletion directive is followed by another cookie directive. Subsequent server requests can then continue entering the handshake path until that short-lived cookie expires.
