I am using Next Auth with Next Js to add authentication in my app. In order to protect routes I am using middleware to check if the user is authenticated or not and depending on that I redirect user to diffrent page.
For now I am using credential and google provider for registering
I am also storing users in the mongodb and using mongoose as ORM

Here I the issue I am facing
I manually clear the cookies by going in the developer tools> appliaction then I go the / and I am redirected to the /signin page as expetecd but now if I check my cookie now it show cookie even tho I haven't signedin.

To double check I refresh the /register page and redirected to the / as expected since I have cookies but the issue is I (user) never signed in

middleware.js
export function middleware(req) {
  let token;
  if (req.cookies.get("next-auth.csrf-token")) {
    token = req.cookies.get("next-auth.csrf-token").value;
  }

  if (
    (req.nextUrl.pathname.startsWith("/signin") ||
      req.nextUrl.pathname.startsWith("/register")) &&
    token
  ) {
    return NextResponse.redirect(new URL("/", req.nextUrl));
  }

  const path = req.nextUrl.pathname;
  const isPublicPath = path === "/signin" || path === "/register";

  if (!isPublicPath && !token) {
    return NextResponse.redirect(new URL("/signin", req.nextUrl));
  }
}

export const config = {
  matcher: ["/register", "/signin", "/", "/events", "/register/:path*"],
};

please guide me what is the issue
api/auth/[...nextauth]/route.js
const handler = NextAuth({
  providers: [
    GoogleProvider({
      clientId: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID,
      clientSecret: process.env.GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET,

    CredentialsProvider({
      name: "Credentials",
      credentials: {},
      async authorize(credentials) {
        const { email, password } = credentials;
        if (!email || !password)
          NextResponse.json(
            { error: "both email and password required" },
            { status: 400 }
          );
        await startDb();
        const existingUser = await User.findOne({ email });

        const isPasswordCorrect = await bcrypt.compare(
          credentials.password,

          // NextResponse.json({ error: "wrong password" }, { status: 400 });
          throw new Error("wrong password");

make sure that you do not have multiple Google accounts log in Chrome browser itself. plus try other browser(non chromium) like Safari
plus, check the network tab > http response header > set-cookie does not exist
enable 'preserve log'
