    <title>GHSA-mh63-6h87-95cp — jwt-go allows excessive memory allocation during header parsing</title>

    <content type="xhtml">
      <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p><strong>Affected:</strong> Go: github.com/golang-jwt/jwt/v5, Go: github.com/golang-jwt/jwt/v4, Go: github.com/golang-jwt/jwt</p>
<p>### Summary</p>
<p>Function [`parse.ParseUnverified`](https://github.com/golang-jwt/jwt/blob/c035977d9e11c351f4c05dfeae193923cbab49ee/parser.go#L138-L139) currently splits (via a call to [strings.Split](https://pkg.go.dev/strings#Split)) its argument (which is untrusted data) on periods.</p>
<p>As a result, in the face of a malicious request whose _Authorization_ header consists of `Bearer ` followed by many period characters, a call to that function incurs allocations to the tune of O(n) bytes (where n stands for the length of the function's argument), with a constant factor of about 16. Relevant weakness: [CWE-405: Asymmetric Resource Consumption (Amplification)](https://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/405.html)</p>
<p>### Details</p>
<p>See [`parse.ParseUnverified`](https://github.com/golang-jwt/jwt/blob/c035977d9e11c351f4c05dfeae193923cbab49ee/parser.go#L138-L139)</p>
<p>### Impact</p>
<p>Excessive memory allocation</p></div>
