jwks-client: A Rust repository from Surve Mobility

JWKS-Client is a library written in Rust to decode and validate JWT tokens using a JSON Web Key Store.

Breaking Change

Now at version 2.0. Support for async/await thanks to Genna Wingert. Requires Rust Stable 1.39 or higher

Another breaking change

Changed to use the crate jsonwebtoken instead of performing validation inside this crate.

IMPORTANT

JWKS-Client was designed to work with a project that uses Rocket. Unfortunately, the version of Rocket in crates.io is not compatible with the version of Ring required for JWKS-Client. Until the next version of Rocket is published, consider using the following in your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
jwks-client = "0.1.4"
rocket = { git = "https://github.com/jfbilodeau/Rocket", version = "0.5.0-dev"}
# Other dependencies...

[dependencies.rocket_contrib]
version = "0.5.0-dev"
git = "https://github.com/jfbilodeau/Rocket"
# Other options...

Features

Library wide:

No panic!
Build with Rust stable (1.40)
Designed for a production system (not an academic project)
Concise results (see error::Type for example)

JWKS key store

Download key set from HTTP address
Decode JWT tokens into header, payload and signature
Verify token signature, expiry and not-before
Determine when keys should be refreshed

JWT:

Uses the crate jsonwebtoken and provides the decoding features that allows with an RSA key type.

JWKS-Client was create specifically to decode GCP/Firebase JWT but should be useable with little to no modification. Contact me to propose support for different JWKS key store. Feedback, suggestions, complaints and criticism is appreciated.

Basic Usage

The following demonstrates how to load a set of keys from an HTTP address and verify a JWT token using those keys:

use jwks_client::Error;
use jwks_client::KeyStore;
use serde::Deserialize;

#[tokio::main]
async fn main() {
    let jkws_url = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jfbilodeau/jwks-client/0.1.8/test/test-jwks.json";

    let key_set = KeyStore::new_from(jkws_url.to_owned()).await.unwrap();

    // ...

    let token = "eyJhbGciOiJSUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCIsImtpZCI6IjEifQ.eyJuYW1lIjoiQWRhIExvdmVsYWNlIiwiaXNzIjoiaHR0cHM6Ly9jaHJvbm9nZWFycy5jb20vdGVzdCIsImF1ZCI6InRlc3QiLCJhdXRoX3RpbWUiOjEwMCwidXNlcl9pZCI6InVpZDEyMyIsInN1YiI6InNidTEyMyIsImlhdCI6MjAwLCJleHAiOjUwMCwibmJmIjozMDAsImVtYWlsIjoiYWxvdmVsYWNlQGNocm9ub2dlYXJzLmNvbSJ9.eTQnwXrri_uY55fS4IygseBzzbosDM1hP153EZXzNlLH5s29kdlGt2mL_KIjYmQa8hmptt9RwKJHBtw6l4KFHvIcuif86Ix-iI2fCpqNnKyGZfgERV51NXk1THkgWj0GQB6X5cvOoFIdHa9XvgPl_rVmzXSUYDgkhd2t01FOjQeeT6OL2d9KdlQHJqAsvvKVc3wnaYYoSqv2z0IluvK93Tk1dUBU2yWXH34nX3GAVGvIoFoNRiiFfZwFlnz78G0b2fQV7B5g5F8XlNRdD1xmVZXU8X2-xh9LqRpnEakdhecciFHg0u6AyC4c00rlo_HBb69wlXajQ3R4y26Kpxn7HA";

    #[derive(Deserialize)]
    struct Claims {
        iss: String,
        name: String,
    }

    let validation = jsonwebtoken::Validation {
        validate_nbf: true,
        validate_exp: true,
        algorithms: vec![jsonwebtoken::Algorithm::RS256], // only the RSA keytype is currently supported
        leeway: 0,
        sub: None,
        aud: None,
        iss: Some("https://chronogears.com/test".to_owned()),
    };

    match key_set.verify(token, &validation) {
        Ok(jsonwebtoken::TokenData { header: _, claims: Claims { iss, name } }) => {
            println!("iss={}", iss);
            println!("name={}", name);
        }
        Err(Error { msg, kind }) => {
            eprintln!("Could not verify token. Reason: {} {:?}", msg, kind);
        }
    }
}
