CVE-2026-102272— PyJWT BOM Bypass

Quick assessment

Affected
jpadilla pyjwt
Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

PyJWT 是一个 JSON Web Token (JWT) 标准的 Python 实现。在版本 2.13.0 至 2.14.0 之间， 中的 方法存在缺陷，原因在于：在对 JSON 进行解析检查之前，原始 JSON Web Key (JWK) 检测器未对接受的 Unicode 字节顺序标记（BOM）进行规范化处理。 当公共 JWK 以 UTF-8 BOM 开头，并在混合算法验证路径中被使用时，就会触发此问题。结果导致公共 JWK 绕过非对称密钥检测，并被错误地用作 HMAC 密钥。因此，攻击者如果已知该公钥，便可

Vulnerability Title
PyJWT BOM Bypass
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
PyJWT is a Python implementation of JSON Web Token standards. From 2.13.0 until 2.14.0, HMACAlgorithm.prepare_key in jwt/algorithms.py is affected because raw-JWK detector does not normalize accepted Unicode byte-order marks before checking for JSON. This occurs when a public JWK is prefixed with a UTF-8 BOM and used in a mixed-algorithm verification path. As a result, public JWK bypasses asymmetric-key detection and becomes the HMAC secret. Consequently, an attacker who knows the public key can forge authenticated tokens. This issue is fixed in version 2.14.0.
