jwt-scala fails to verify token signatures

Overview jwt-scala contains a vulnerability where it fails to verify token signatures correctly. jwt-scala is a Scala library to handle JSON Web Token JWT. jwt-scala contains a vulnerability where it fails to verify token signatures correctly due to improper processing of JWT headers. Toshiharu...

Fedora 26 : python-jwt (2017-b9f07dfaca)

Upgrade to 1.5.3 and also note that 1.5.1 fixed CVE-2017-11424. Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora update system website. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing...

Timing Attack

emarref/jwt is vulnerable to a timing attack. It is possible because the verify function in Symmetric.php does not compare hashes in constant time, allowing malicious users to guess valid hashes based on the time that a comparison takes...

CVE-2017-11424

In PyJWT 1.5.0 and below the invalidstrings check in HMACAlgorithm.preparekey does not account for all PEM encoded public keys. Specifically, the PKCS1 PEM encoded format would be allowed because it is prefaced with the string -----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY----- which is not accounted for. This enable...

Type confusion

In PyJWT 1.5.0 and below the invalidstrings check in HMACAlgorithm.preparekey does not account for all PEM encoded public keys. Specifically, the PKCS1 PEM encoded format would be allowed because it is prefaced with the string -----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY----- which is not accounted for. This enable...

CVE-2017-11424

CVE-2017-11424 affects PyJWT 1.5.0 and earlier, where the invalid_strings check in HMACAlgorithm.prepare_key fails to account for all PEM public-key formats (notably PKCS1 PEM prefixed with -----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY-----), enabling key confusion attacks that could let an attacker craft JWTs from ...

Invalid Curve Attack

nimbus-jose-jwt is vulnerable to invalid curve attacks. The attacks are possible because the library does not make sure that the public x and y coordinates are on the specified curve in environments where the JCE provider lacks curve validation...

Padding Oracle Attack

nimbus-jose-jwt is vulnerable to padding oracle attacks. It does not act correctly if an invalid HMAC is detected in authenticated AES-CBC decryption...

Authentication Bypass

nimbus-jose-jwt is vulnerable to authentication bypass. The bypass exists because the library ignores the checking of integer-overflow when converting length values from bytes to bits. A malicious user can shift Additional Authenticated Data AAD and ciphertext, resulting in a different plaintext...

Integer overflow

In Nimbus JOSE+JWT before 4.39, there is no integer-overflow check when converting length values from bytes to bits, which allows attackers to conduct HMAC bypass attacks by shifting Additional Authenticated Data AAD and ciphertext so that different plaintext is obtained for the same HMAC...

CVE-2017-12973

Nimbus JOSE+JWT before 4.39 proceeds improperly after detection of an invalid HMAC in authenticated AES-CBC decryption, which allows attackers to conduct a padding oracle attack...

CVE-2017-12974

Nimbus JOSE+JWT before 4.36 proceeds with ECKey construction without ensuring that the public x and y coordinates are on the specified curve, which allows attackers to conduct an Invalid Curve Attack in environments where the JCE provider lacks the applicable curve validation...

CVE-2017-12972

In Nimbus JOSE+JWT before 4.39, there is no integer-overflow check when converting length values from bytes to bits, which allows attackers to conduct HMAC bypass attacks by shifting Additional Authenticated Data AAD and ciphertext so that different plaintext is obtained for the same HMAC...
