json-jwt 0.5.2
json-jwt improper input validation due to lack of element count when splitting string
high severity CVE-2019-18848>= 1.11.0
The json-jwt gem before 1.11.0 for Ruby lacks an element count during the splitting of a JWE string.
json-jwt allows bypass of identity checks via a sign/encryption confusion attack
medium severity CVE-2023-51774~> 1.15.3, >= 1.15.3.1, >= 1.16.6
The json-jwt (aka JSON::JWT) gem versions 1.16.5 and below sometimes allows bypass of identity checks via a sign/encryption confusion attack. For example, JWE can sometimes be used to bypass JSON::JWT.decode.
Auth tag forgery vulnerability with AES-GCM encrypted JWT
medium severity CVE-2018-1000539>= 1.9.4
< 0.5.1
Ruby's OpenSSL bindings do not check the length of the supplied authentication tag when decrypting an authenticated encryption mode such as AES-GCM, leaving this up to the authors of a gem/app to implement for properly validating the message.
json-jwt was not checking for the authentication tag length, meaning that with a one byte tag the JWT would be considered not tampered with. This means that with an average of 128 (max 256) attempts an attacker can forge a valid signature.
