Azure AD B2C - Token validation does not work

问题:

I would like to use Azure AD B2C but have several difficulties using it. One problem I have is to validate the signature of the token. First I wanted to validate the token "manually" using jwt.io.

According to the Microsoft Docs, validating the signature should work like this:

Your app can use the kid claim in the JWT header to select the public key in the JSON document that is used to sign a particular token. It can then perform signature validation by using the correct public key and the indicated algorithm.

My understandig: Grab the kid value out of the header, lookup the key in the metadata under the location of jwks_uri, (assumption) use the value of "n" to verify the signature.

But Jwt.io, jsonwebtoken.io, and jose-jwt all say, that the siganture is invalid.

What am I missing?

回答1:

Jwt.io seems to only support HS265 with a string secret and RS256 with a string secret or a certificate.

Azure AD B2C uses the more native form of RS256 which as per RFC 3447, section 3.1 defines that the public key consists of two components: n and e. The JWK contains both n and e which can be used to generate public key and validate the token signature.

In order to use Jwt.io, you'll need to convert Azure AD B2C's n + e format for the key to a cert format. See this example for a reference on how to do this: Go Language Convert Modulus exponent to X.509 certificate
