Improper calculations in ECC implementation can trigger a Denial-of-Service (DoS)

Description When using the non-default "fallback" crypto back-end, ECC operations in node-jose can trigger a Denial-of-Service DoS condition, due to a possible infinite loop in an internal calculation. For some ECC operations, this condition is triggered randomly; for others, it can be triggered ...
