Threats tagged 'brew-rapid-mlx-cve-2026-102270'

CVE-2026-102270 is a Regular Expression Denial of Service (ReDoS) vulnerability in the pyjwt library's is_pem_format function. The vulnerability arises from a regex pattern that exhibits quadratic time complexity when processing malformed PEM-like inputs consisting of repeated '-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----' lines without a corresponding '---- END' line. This can cause excessive CPU usage, potentially leading to resource exhaustion and denial of service. The issue affects pyjwt versions prior to 2.14.0. A fix replacing the vulnerable regex with a bounded marker scan was released in pyjwt 2.14.0 on 2026-09-11.
