public class RefreshingHttpsJwksVerificationKeyResolver extends Object implements CloseableVerificationKeyResolver
RefreshingHttpsJwksVerificationKeyResolver
is a
VerificationKeyResolver
implementation that will periodically refresh the
JWKS using its HttpsJwks
instance.
A JWKS (JSON Web Key Set)
is a JSON document provided by the OAuth/OIDC provider that lists the keys used to sign the JWTs
it issues.
Here is a sample JWKS JSON document:
{ "keys": [ { "kty": "RSA", "alg": "RS256", "kid": "abc123", "use": "sig", "e": "AQAB", "n": "..." }, { "kty": "RSA", "alg": "RS256", "kid": "def456", "use": "sig", "e": "AQAB", "n": "..." } ] }Without going into too much detail, the array of keys enumerates the key data that the provider is using to sign the JWT. The key ID (
kid
) is referenced by the JWT's header in
order to match up the JWT's signing key with the key in the JWKS. During the validation step of
the broker, the jose4j OAuth library will use the contents of the appropriate key in the JWKS
to validate the signature.
Given that the JWKS is referenced by the JWT, the JWKS must be made available by the
OAuth/OIDC provider so that a JWT can be validated.CloseableVerificationKeyResolver
