notto-fusionauth-jwt: A Java repository from momokosa

FusionAuth JWT

FusionAuth JWT is intended to be fast and easy to use. FusionAuth JWT has a single external dependency on Jackson, no Bouncy Castle, Apache Commons or Guava.

Example Code:

JWT Signing and Verifying

Sign and encode a JWT using HMAC

// Build an HMAC signer using a SHA-256 hash
Signer signer = HMACSigner.newSHA256Signer("too many secrets");

// Build a new JWT with an issuer(iss), issued at(iat), subject(sub) and expiration(exp)
JWT jwt = new JWT().setIssuer("www.acme.com")
                   .setIssuedAt(ZonedDateTime.now(ZoneOffset.UTC))
                   .setSubject("f1e33ab3-027f-47c5-bb07-8dd8ab37a2d3")
                   .setExpiration(ZonedDateTime.now(ZoneOffset.UTC).plusMinutes(60));
                       
// Sign and encode the JWT to a JSON string representation
String encodedJWT = JWT.getEncoder().encode(jwt, signer);

A higher strength hash can be used by changing the signer. The encoding and decoding steps are not affected.

// Build an HMAC signer using a SHA-384 hash
Signer signer384 = HMACSigner.newSHA384Signer("too many secrets");

// Build an HMAC signer using a SHA-512 hash
Signer signer512 = HMACSigner.newSHA512Signer("too many secrets");

Verify and decode a JWT using HMAC

// Build an HMC verifier using the same secret that was used to sign the JWT
Verifier verifier = HMACVerifier.newVerifier("too many secrets");

// Verify and decode the encoded string JWT to a rich object
JWT jwt = JWT.getDecoder().decode(encodedJWT, verifier);

// Assert the subject of the JWT is as expected
assertEquals(jwt.subject, "f1e33ab3-027f-47c5-bb07-8dd8ab37a2d3");

Sign and encode a JWT using RSA

// Build an RSA signer using a SHA-256 hash
Signer signer = RSASigner.newSHA256Signer(new String(Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get("private_key.pem"))));

// Build a new JWT with an issuer(iss), issued at(iat), subject(sub) and expiration(exp)
JWT jwt = new JWT().setIssuer("www.acme.com")
                   .setIssuedAt(ZonedDateTime.now(ZoneOffset.UTC))
                   .setSubject("f1e33ab3-027f-47c5-bb07-8dd8ab37a2d3")
                   .setExpiration(ZonedDateTime.now(ZoneOffset.UTC).plusMinutes(60));
        
// Sign and encode the JWT to a JSON string representation
String encodedJWT = JWT.getEncoder().encode(jwt, signer);

A higher strength hash can be used by changing the signer. The encoding and decoding steps are not affected.

// Build an RSA signer using a SHA-384 hash
Signer signer = RSASigner.newSHA384Signer(new String(Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get("private_key.pem"))));

// Build an RSA signer using a SHA5124 hash
Signer signer = RSASigner.newSHA512Signer(new String(Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get("private_key.pem"))));

Verify and decode a JWT using RSA

// Build an RSA verifier using an RSA Public Key
Verifier verifier = RSAVerifier.newVerifier(Paths.get("public_key.pem"));

// Verify and decode the encoded string JWT to a rich object
JWT jwt = JWT.getDecoder().decode(encodedJWT, verifier);

// Assert the subject of the JWT is as expected
assertEquals(jwt.subject, "f1e33ab3-027f-47c5-bb07-8dd8ab37a2d3");

Sign and encode a JWT using EC

// Build an EC signer using a SHA-256 hash
Signer signer = ECSigner.newSHA256Signer(new String(Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get("private_key.pem"))));

// Build a new JWT with an issuer(iss), issued at(iat), subject(sub) and expiration(exp)
JWT jwt = new JWT().setIssuer("www.acme.com")
                   .setIssuedAt(ZonedDateTime.now(ZoneOffset.UTC))
                   .setSubject("f1e33ab3-027f-47c5-bb07-8dd8ab37a2d3")
                   .setExpiration(ZonedDateTime.now(ZoneOffset.UTC).plusMinutes(60));
        
// Sign and encode the JWT to a JSON string representation
String encodedJWT = JWT.getEncoder().encode(jwt, signer);

A higher strength hash can be used by changing the signer. The encoding and decoding steps are not affected.

// Build an EC signer using a SHA-384 hash
Signer signer = ECSigner.newSHA384Signer(new String(Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get("private_key.pem"))));

// Build an EC signer using a SHA-512 hash
Signer signer = ECSigner.newSHA512Signer(new String(Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get("private_key.pem"))));

Verify and decode a JWT using EC

// Build an EC verifier using an EC Public Key
Verifier verifier = ECVerifier.newVerifier(Paths.get("public_key.pem"));

// Verify and decode the encoded string JWT to a rich object
JWT jwt = JWT.getDecoder().decode(encodedJWT, verifier);

// Assert the subject of the JWT is as expected
assertEquals(jwt.subject, "f1e33ab3-027f-47c5-bb07-8dd8ab37a2d3");

Verify a JWT adjusting for Clock Skew

// Build an EC verifier using an EC Public Key
Verifier verifier = ECVerifier.newVerifier(Paths.get("public_key.pem"));

// Verify and decode the encoded string JWT to a rich object and allow up to 60 seconds
// of clock skew when asserting the 'exp' and 'nbf' claims if they exist.
JWT jwt = JWT.getDecoder().withClockSkew(60).decode(encodedJWT, verifier);

// Assert the subject of the JWT is as expected
assertEquals(jwt.subject, "f1e33ab3-027f-47c5-bb07-8dd8ab37a2d3");

Verify an expired JWT by going back in time

In a scenario where you may have a hard coded JWT in a test case that you wish to validate, you may use the time machine JWT decoder. Ideally you would not hard code JWTs in your tests and instead generate a new one each time so that the JWT would pass the expiration check. If this is not possible, this option is provided.

// Build an EC verifier using an EC Public Key
Verifier verifier = ECVerifier.newVerifier(Paths.get("public_key.pem"));

// Using the time machine decoder, you may adjust 'now' to any point in the past, or future.
// Note, this is only provided for testing, and should not be used in production.
ZonedDateTime thePast = ZonedDateTime.of(2019, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, ZoneOffset.UTC) 
JWT jwt = JWT.getTimeMachineDecoder(thePast).decode(encodedJWT, verifier);

// Assert the subject of the JWT is as expected
assertEquals(jwt.subject, "f1e33ab3-027f-47c5-bb07-8dd8ab37a2d3");

Build a Signer, or a Verifier using a provided CryptoProvider

This pattern is available on the HMAC, RSA and EC verifier and signers.

// Build and EC signer using a BC Fips ready Crypto Provider
Signer signer = ECSigner.newSHA256Signer(new String(Files.readAllBytes(Paths.get("private_key.pem"))), new BCFIPSCryptoProvider());

// Build an EC verifier using a BC Fips ready Crypto Provider
Verifier verifier = ECVerifier.newVerifier(Paths.get("public_key.pem"), new BCFIPSCryptoProvider());

JSON Web Keys

Retrieve JSON Web Keys from a JWKS endpoint

// Retrieve JSON Web Keys using a known JWKS endpoint
// - You may optionally provide a HttpURLConnection to this method instead of a string if you want to build your own connection.
List<JSONWebKey> keys = JSONWebKeySetHelper.retrieveKeysFromJWKS("https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v3/certs");

// Retrieve JSON Web Keys using a well known OpenID Connect configuration endpoint
// - You may optionally provide a HttpURLConnection to this method instead of a string if you want to build your own connection.
List<JSONWebKey> keys = JSONWebKeySetHelper.retrieveKeysFromWellKnownConfiguration("https://accounts.google.com/.well-known/openid-configuration");

// Retrieve JSON Web Keys using an OpenID Connect issuer endpoint
List<JSONWebKey> keys = JSONWebKeySetHelper.retrieveKeysFromIssuer("https://accounts.google.com");

Convert a Public Key to JWK

JSONWebKey jwk = JSONWebKey.build(publicKey);
String json = jwk.toJSON();
