CVE-2026-102269

PyJWT: Non-canonical signature segments enable raw-token revocation bypass

Published Sep 28, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 4.8 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
PyJWT is a Python implementation of JSON Web Token standards. Prior to 2.14.0, PyJWT signature segment is affected because signature segment decoding accepts characters outside the canonical Base64URL representation. This occurs when non-Base64URL characters are appended to a valid compact JWS signature segment. As a result, base64url_decode produces the same signature bytes for different serialized segments. Consequently, raw-token revocation checks can fail to recognize an equivalent modified token. This issue is fixed in version 2.14.0.
