Research direction

The report only provides a Node.js crypto stack trace through internal/crypto/sig.js, jwa/index.js, jws/lib/sign-stream.js, and jsonwebtoken/sign.js. Start by identifying the Node.js and OpenSSL versions and reproducing the signing call; the issue does not provide a test, expected behavior, or a defined completion condition.
