CVE-2025-27144 is an uncontrolled resource consumption vulnerability in Go JOSE's compact JWS and JWE parsing. Versions on the 4.x branch before 4.0.5 use strings.Split to separate tokens on period characters, causing excessive memory allocation when processing maliciously crafted tokens containing large numbers of periods. Submitting numerous malformed tokens can exhaust memory and cause denial of service in applications using the library.
