Workarounds and Mitigations

This vulnerability exists only in IBM DataPower Gateways functions configured
with a JWE decrypt action, or using the GatewayScript decryption API.

Requiring the ciphertext to be signed by the sender, and verifying that 
signature as a prerequisite to performing decryption will address the 
vulnerability.
