NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rhonabwy package and not the rhonabwy package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

Rhonabwy 0.9.99 through 1.1.x before 1.1.7 doesn't check the RSA private key length before RSA-OAEP decryption. This allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service via a crafted JWE (JSON Web Encryption) token.
