bcrypt.compareSync always returning false

Question

I am creating an api for reasons of studies, and I have a problem that bcrypt keeps returning false for what it seems to me, I used this same comparison function in another study project and it had worked. What could I be doing wrong so the comparison doesn’t work as it should? I even read the documentation and I believe I’m doing it right.

I’m creating my user that way:

router.post("/user", async (req, res) => {
    const name = req.body.name
    const email = req.body.email
    const password = req.body.password

    try {

        await User.findOne({ where: { email: email } }).then(user => {
            if (user == undefined) {
                let salt = bcrypt.genSaltSync(10);
                let hash = bcrypt.hashSync(password, salt)

                User.create({
                    name: name,
                    email: email,
                    password: hash
                })
                res.sendStatus(201)
            } else {
                res.sendStatus(400)
            }
        })
    } catch (err) {
        console.log(err)
        res.sendStatus(500)
    }
})

And this is the authentication wheel I’m trying to validate the user

router.post("/auth", async (req, res) => {

var { email, password } = req.body

if (email != undefined) {

    var user = await User.findOne({ where: { email: email } })

    if (user != undefined) {
        
        var correct = await bcrypt.compareSync(password, user.password)

        if (req.body.password == correct) {

            res.status(200)
            res.json({ token: "Token falso" })
        } else {
            res.status(401)
            res.json({ err: "credenciais inválidas" })
        }
    } else {
        res.status(404)
        res.json({ err: "O email enviado não existe" })
    }
} else {
    res.status(400)
    res.json({ err: "O email enviado é inválido" })
}

})
