Why am I getting this error when using Next.js middleware?

The Problem

I'm using Next.js, Prisma, and NextAuth's Email Provider strategy to setup an authentication system. I want to use Next.js middleware to redirect a request if it doesn't contain a valid session. But any use of the middleware, like literally just having a function declared in the middleware.js file, throws this error:

error - (middleware)/node_modules/oidc-token-hash/lib/shake256.js (3:0) @ <unknown>
error - Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'substr')
null

It logs this error about 5 times. This is the middleware.js file at {root}/middleware.js

import { NextResponse } from 'next/server';

export default function middleware(request) {
  return NextResponse.next();
}

And here is this the node_modules/oidc-token-hash/lib/shake256.js file specified in the error:

const crypto = require('crypto');

const [major, minor] = process.version.substr(1).split('.').map((x) => parseInt(x, 10));
const xofOutputLength = major > 12 || (major === 12 && minor >= 8);
const shake256 = xofOutputLength && crypto.getHashes().includes('shake256');

module.exports = shake256;

Prior to creating this file, the app worked perfectly. I could authentiate via an email link, make simple GET requests to API routes, and do any other functionality. I've never seen this error before. The closest I can guess is that I have some sort of dependency/versioning issue, but I'm using damn near latest versions of Next, React, Prisma, NextAuth, Node, etc.

Perhaps it's worth noting that I'm using React Query? Other than that I have no idea what might be causing this.
