Hi everyone,

 

RFC 8725 is the JWT Best Practices document that was published 5 years ago. Since then, several new vulnerabilities and implementation issues were found, and this is a “bis” document to inform the community of these issues and recommend mitigations.

 

This is a relatively small change to the existing BCP. We have (almost) exhausted the issues we are aware of and we’re requesting adoption by the working group. Once adopted, we believe we can quickly move to WGLC.

 

Thanks,

 

                Yaron, Mike and Dick

Name:     draft-sheffer-oauth-rfc8725bis

Revision: 01

Title:    JSON Web Token Best Current Practices

Date:     2025-05-23

Group:    Individual Submission

Pages:    18

 

Abstract:

 

   JSON Web Tokens, also known as JWTs, are URL-safe JSON-based security

   tokens that contain a set of claims that can be signed and/or

   encrypted.  JWTs are being widely used and deployed as a simple

   security token format in numerous protocols and applications, both in

   the area of digital identity and in other application areas.  This

   Best Current Practices document updates RFC 7519 to provide

   actionable guidance leading to secure implementation and deployment

   of JWTs.
