Show HN: Jwt.is – JSON Web Token Debugger

38 pointsby mhamannover 1 year ago
The team at Rownd is excited to announce <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jwt.is" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jwt.is</a>, an updated take on JSON Web Token debugging.<p>Like most developers, we&#x27;ve used jwt.io for years, but it lacks a number of useful features that would make it even more convenient. We&#x27;re building on the shoulders of those who&#x27;ve come before us. :-)<p>In addition to the basic JWT decoding and signature verification, we&#x27;ve added things like: - Verification using JWK endpoints - Locally stored history of tokens and keys - Verification for EdDSA signatures - Detection of common token providers (e.g., Google, Apple, etc) - Dark mode!<p>In the future, we plan to add features like offline mode and more granular token&#x2F;key storage management so you can precisely control what sticks around.<p>Additionally, we&#x27;ve made this completely open source (MIT-licensed), so it&#x27;s free to use and modify as you wish. And of course, contributions are always welcomed!<p>Let us know what you think!

I think it&#x27;s great, having known good, easy to use tools for common tech is great.<p>But the ChatGPT button seems highly unnecessary. It doesn&#x27;t seem to do anything a madlibs style fill in the blank template couldn&#x27;t do in milliseconds.

Looks a lot like <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jwt.io&#x2F;" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;jwt.io&#x2F;</a>

Might be worth having a clearer &quot;don&#x27;t put production credentials into random websites&quot; warning (previous discussion: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=24352360">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=24352360</a>)

I&#x27;m sorry.. but is this for real?<p>This is like an afternoon of work, and it&#x27;s more or less a carbon copy of the existing tools. No one will care about any of the features you are describing. How much time do you think people spend on debugging JWTs?<p>Then you also went and added AI integration of all things. This lets me wait 10 seconds to let GPT tell the definitions for each part of the JWT, which <i>don&#x27;t change</i>. You could have just replaced it with a map from the claims to their purpose as defined by the RFC(<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;datatracker.ietf.org&#x2F;doc&#x2F;html&#x2F;rfc7519#section-4.1.3" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;datatracker.ietf.org&#x2F;doc&#x2F;html&#x2F;rfc7519#section-4.1.3</a>). Not to mention how unfathomably silly it is to talk about security and whatnot and then just send people&#x27;s JWTs off to some third party.

Out of interest, could jwt.io not be amended to do the same things? Last I saw it was Open Source, too. Or was there something you thought&#x2F;were told wouldn&#x27;t be accepted?

Hm, I don&#x27;t think this is working. The JavaScript throws a &quot;Uncaught (in promise) be: Failed to base64url decode the signature&quot; error, but the website says the signature is verified.<p>Furthermore, if you enter the <i>wrong</i> key (just made a key on jwt.io, copied it into here, and entered the wrong key), it still says the signature is verified.

Looks nice, but pretty printing the output of the JSON is a must.<p>I do like how you can paste the JWK URL for validation, not seen that elsewhere.

Thanks for this. Bookmarked!
