CVE-2016-5430
The RSA 1.5 algorithm implementation in the JOSE_JWE class in JWE.php in jose-php before 2.2.1 lacks the Random Filling protection mechanism, which makes it easier for remote attackers to obtain cleartext data via a Million Message Attack (MMA).

Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (1.74%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
