Several tools were also previously developed. However, after assessing the quality of the public tools, I concluded that we need better tools to perform testing against JWT. I have developed a set of scripts I call it “jwt-pwn” that aims to test JWT authentication with stability, simplicity, and efficiency in mind. The scripts set are very simple, as it integrates directly with the JWT Python library.

For those who are unfamiliar, JSON Web Token (JWT) is a standard for creating tokens that assert some number of claims. For example, a server could generate a token that has the claim "logged in as admin" and provide that to a client. The client could then use that token to prove that they are logged in as admin. The tokens are signed by the server's key, so the server is able to verify that the token is legitimate.

Over the last few months, some implementations of JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) that have ultimately led to compromise of the web application. Some scenarios include, stealing admin tokens through XSS (detailed in this blog) and forging claims during account registration to create standard accounts with admin privileges.
