Signed and crypted JWT about jose-jwt

[dvsekhvalnov]

If you have example (even in psedo-code) of what do you want to achieve it can be helpful :)

Regardless are you looking for something like this?

string signedObject = Jose.JWT.Encode(token, clientPrivateKey, JwsAlgorithm.RS256);

string encrypted = Jose.JWT.Encode(signedObject, serverPublicKey, JweAlgorithm.RSA1_5, JweEncryption.A128CBC_HS256);

Hi @biancini ,

can you refine what do you mean by signed and encrypted together?

Usually you are using:

1. signatures to protect against payload from being altered. Signatures provide way to proof integrity of your content (token).
2. encryption when you want to hide content from unintended parties. encryption for sure providing you same integrity level that signatures do, so you really don't need separate signing step if you are using encrypted tokens.

Or may be i didn't get your question correctly?

I am usibg JWT library to implement an Open ID connect client.
On the official certification test suite, I read the test "Can use request_uri request parameter with signed and encrypted request" that says:

Pass a Request Object by Reference, using the request_uri parameter.Sign the Request Object using the 'RS256' algorithm, then Encrypt the Request Object using the 'RSA1_5' and 'A128CBC-HS256' algorithms.

Link here: https://rp.certification.openid.net:8080/test_list

And it makes sense because the client had to sign the message with its private key and encrypt it with the public key of the server.
The server then decrypts the message with it private key and then verifies the signature with the public key of the client.

How can I do that?
Thanks,
A.

Yes, this would completely satisfy my need!

Okay, glad it working :)

Feel free to close if you don't have other questions.

I will give it a try and if it is working I will close the issue.
Not sure of the encrypted parte should be the whole message string or only the payload.
Thanks for now!

It works smooth and easy.
Thanks
