How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:unstable pyjwt to version 2.11.0-2 or higher.

NVD Description

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

pyjwt v2.10.1 was discovered to contain weak encryption. NOTE: this is disputed by the Supplier because the key length is chosen by the application that uses the library (admittedly, library users may benefit from a minimum value and a mechanism for opting in to strict enforcement).
