Oracle Linux: CVE-2024-28102: ELSA-2024-2559: python-jwcrypto security update (MODERATE) (Multiple Advisories)

JWCrypto implements JWK, JWS, and JWE specifications using python-cryptography. Prior to version 1.5.6, an attacker can cause a denial of service attack by passing in a malicious JWE Token with a high compression ratio. When the server processes this token, it will consume a lot of memory and processing time. Version 1.5.6 fixes this vulnerability by limiting the maximum token length.
An uncontrolled resource consumption vulnerability was found in python-jwcrypto. If a malicious JWE token with a high compression ratio is passed to the server, the server will consume a lot of memory and processing time, leading to a denial of service.
