Hi,
The following vulnerability was published for python-jwcrypto.
CVE-2026-92091[0]:
| A flaw was found in jwcrypto. The JWK.import_key() function
| validates the key_ops JWK member for duplicate values using an
| algorithm with O(n^2) time complexity, and the length of key_ops is
| not bounded. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can supply a JWK
| with a large key_ops array to an application that passes attacker-
| controlled key material to a public key-import API (reachable via
| ECDH-ES key agreement, OIDC dynamic client registration, DPoP, or
| ACME account key registration, among others) to consume excessive
| CPU time, resulting in a denial of service.
