Changelog

Sourced from jws's changelog.

[4.0.1]

Changed

Fix advisory GHSA-869p-cjfg-cm3x: createSign and createVerify now require that a non empty secret is provided (via opts.secret, opts.privateKey or opts.key) when using HMAC algorithms.

Upgrading JWA version to 2.0.1, adressing a compatibility issue for Node >= 25.

[3.2.3]

Changed

Fix advisory GHSA-869p-cjfg-cm3x: createSign and createVerify now require that a non empty secret is provided (via opts.secret, opts.privateKey or opts.key) when using HMAC algorithms.

Upgrading JWA version to 1.4.2, adressing a compatibility issue for Node >= 25.

[3.0.0]

Changed

BREAKING: jwt.verify now requires an algorithm parameter, and jws.createVerify requires an algorithm option. The "alg" field signature headers is ignored. This mitigates a critical security flaw in the library which would allow an attacker to generate signatures with arbitrary contents that would be accepted by jwt.verify. See https://auth0.com/blog/2015/03/31/critical-vulnerabilities-in-json-web-token-libraries/ for details.

2.0.0 - 2015-01-30

Changed

BREAKING: Default payload encoding changed from binary to utf8. utf8 is a is a more sensible default than binary because many payloads, as far as I can tell, will contain user-facing strings that could be in any language. ([6b6de48])

Code reorganization, thanks [@fearphage]! (7880050)

Added

Option in all relevant methods for encoding. For those few users that might be depending on a binary encoding of the messages, this is for them. ([6b6de48])
