6.4 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:H/A:L

Summary
In versions `<=8.5.1` of `jsonwebtoken` library, lack of algorithm definition in the `jwt.verify()` function can lead to signature validation bypass due to defaulting to the `none` algorithm for signature verification. Users are affected if you do not specify algorithms in the `jwt.verify()` function. This issue has been fixed, please update to version 9.0.0 which removes the default support for the none algorithm in the `jwt.verify()` method. There will be no impact, if you update to version 9.0.0 and you don’t need to allow for the `none` algorithm. If you need 'none' algorithm, you have to explicitly specify that in `jwt.verify()` options.

Los usuarios se ven afectados si no especifica algoritmos en la funci\u00f3n `jwt.verify()`.

No habr\u00e1 ning\u00fan impacto si actualiza a la versi\u00f3n 9.0.0 y no necesita permitir el algoritmo \"none\". Si necesita el algoritmo \u0027none\u0027, debe especificarlo expl\u00edcitamente en las opciones `jwt.verify()`."
