Description
What is the proposed Cheat Sheet about?
Javascript Object Signing and Encryption. In particular JWE.
What security issues are commonly encountered related to this area?
- How to configure JWE implementations to be secure.
- Recommended encryption algorithms
- Traps e.g. using the same asymmetric keys between JWT and JWE. In what circumstances is this bad?
What is the objective of the Cheat Sheet?
To help people implement secure JWE implementations.
What other resources exist in this area?
Writing this because there seems to be very little guidance online, and some of it is contradictory.
The owasp cheatsheet has some guidance on best use of JWT (object signing) but no guidance on the usage of JWE.
