CVE-2022-29217
Discription
PyJWT is a Python implementation of RFC 7519. PyJWT supports multiple
different JWT signing algorithms. With JWT, an attacker submitting the JWT
token can choose the used signing algorithm. The PyJWT library requires
that the application chooses what algorithms are supported. The application
can specify `jwt.algorithms.get_default_algorithms()` to get support for
all algorithms, or specify a single algorithm. The issue is not that big as
`algorithms=jwt.algorithms.get_default_algorithms()` has to be used. Users
should upgrade to v2.4.0 to receive a patch for this issue. As a
workaround, always be explicit with the algorithms that are accepted and
expected when decoding.
