jose is vulnerable to Denial Of Service (DoS). This vulnerability is due to a flaw in the support for decompressing plaintext post-decryption. An attacker can exploit a scenario with exceptionally high compression ratios, leading to JWE token lengths falling below application-defined limits. This could render existing application-level mechanisms ineffective against resource exhaustion.
