[3.0.0]
Changed
- BREAKING:
jwt.verify
now requires analgorithm
parameter, andjws.createVerify
requires analgorithm
option. The"alg"
field signature headers is ignored. This mitigates a critical security flaw in the library which would allow an attacker to generate signatures with arbitrary contents that would be accepted byjwt.verify
. See https://auth0.com/blog/2015/03/31/critical-vulnerabilities-in-json-web-token-libraries/ for details.
