Overview ▾

Package jose aims to provide an implementation of the Javascript Object Signing and Encryption set of standards. It implements encryption and signing based on the JSON Web Encryption and JSON Web Signature standards, with optional JSON Web Token support available in a sub-package. The library supports both the compact and full serialization formats, and has optional support for multiple recipients.

Example (JWE)

Code:

// Generate a public/private key pair to use for this example.
privateKey, err := rsa.GenerateKey(rand.Reader, 2048)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

// Instantiate an encrypter using RSA-OAEP with AES128-GCM. An error would
// indicate that the selected algorithm(s) are not currently supported.
publicKey := &privateKey.PublicKey
encrypter, err := NewEncrypter(A128GCM, Recipient{Algorithm: RSA_OAEP, Key: publicKey}, nil)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

// Encrypt a sample plaintext. Calling the encrypter returns an encrypted
// JWE object, which can then be serialized for output afterwards. An error
// would indicate a problem in an underlying cryptographic primitive.
var plaintext = []byte("Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet")
object, err := encrypter.Encrypt(plaintext)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

// Serialize the encrypted object using the full serialization format.
// Alternatively you can also use the compact format here by calling
// object.CompactSerialize() instead.
serialized := object.FullSerialize()

// Parse the serialized, encrypted JWE object. An error would indicate that
// the given input did not represent a valid message.
object, err = ParseEncrypted(serialized)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

// Now we can decrypt and get back our original plaintext. An error here
// would indicate that the message failed to decrypt, e.g. because the auth
// tag was broken or the message was tampered with.
decrypted, err := object.Decrypt(privateKey)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

fmt.Printf(string(decrypted))

Output:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet

Example (JWS)

Code:

// Generate a public/private key pair to use for this example.
privateKey, err := rsa.GenerateKey(rand.Reader, 2048)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

// Instantiate a signer using RSASSA-PSS (SHA512) with the given private key.
signer, err := NewSigner(SigningKey{Algorithm: PS512, Key: privateKey}, nil)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

// Sign a sample payload. Calling the signer returns a protected JWS object,
// which can then be serialized for output afterwards. An error would
// indicate a problem in an underlying cryptographic primitive.
var payload = []byte("Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet")
object, err := signer.Sign(payload)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

// Serialize the encrypted object using the full serialization format.
// Alternatively you can also use the compact format here by calling
// object.CompactSerialize() instead.
serialized := object.FullSerialize()

// Parse the serialized, protected JWS object. An error would indicate that
// the given input did not represent a valid message.
object, err = ParseSigned(serialized)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

// Now we can verify the signature on the payload. An error here would
// indicate that the message failed to verify, e.g. because the signature was
// broken or the message was tampered with.
output, err := object.Verify(&privateKey.PublicKey)
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

fmt.Printf(string(output))

Output:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet

func (JSONWebSignature) Verify

func (obj JSONWebSignature) Verify(verificationKey interface{}) ([]byte, error)

Verify validates the signature on the object and returns the payload. This function does not support multi-signature, if you desire multi-sig verification use VerifyMulti instead.

Be careful when verifying signatures based on embedded JWKs inside the payload header. You cannot assume that the key received in a payload is trusted.

func (JSONWebSignature) VerifyMulti

func (obj JSONWebSignature) VerifyMulti(verificationKey interface{}) (int, Signature, []byte, error)

    Algs() []KeyAlgorithm
    // contains filtered or unexported methods
}

type OpaqueSigner

OpaqueSigner is an interface that supports signing payloads with opaque private key(s). Private key operations performed by implementers may, for example, occur in a hardware module. An OpaqueSigner may rotate signing keys transparently to the user of this interface.

type OpaqueSigner interface {
    // Public returns the public key of the current signing key.
    Public() *JSONWebKey
    // Algs returns a list of supported signing algorithms.

    // algorithm.
    SignPayload(payload []byte, alg SignatureAlgorithm) ([]byte, error)
}

type OpaqueVerifier

OpaqueVerifier is an interface that supports verifying payloads with opaque public key(s). An OpaqueSigner may rotate signing keys transparently to the user of this interface.

type OpaqueVerifier interface {
    VerifyPayload(payload []byte, signature []byte, alg SignatureAlgorithm) error

If they are not provided a safe default of 100000 will be used for the count and a 128-bit random salt will be generated.

type Recipient struct {
    Algorithm  KeyAlgorithm
    Key        interface{}
    KeyID      string
    PBES2Count int
    PBES2Salt  []byte

    // values. Prefer using Protected and Unprotected fields instead of this.
    // Values in this header may or may not have been signed and in general
    // should not be trusted.
    Header Header

    // Protected header. Values in this header were signed and
    // will be verified as part of the signature verification process.
    Protected Header

    // Unprotected header. Values in this header were not signed
    // and in general should not be trusted.
    Unprotected Header

    // The actual signature value
    Signature []byte
    // contains filtered or unexported fields
}

type SignatureAlgorithm

SignatureAlgorithm represents a signature (or MAC) algorithm.

type SignatureAlgorithm string

type Signer

Signer represents a signer which takes a payload and produces a signed JWS object.

type Signer interface {
    Sign(payload []byte) (*JSONWebSignature, error)
    Options() SignerOptions
}

func NewMultiSigner

func NewMultiSigner(sigs []SigningKey, opts *SignerOptions) (Signer, error)

NewMultiSigner creates a signer for multiple recipients

Example

Code:

var privateKey *rsa.PrivateKey
var sharedKey []byte

// Instantiate a signer for multiple recipients.
NewMultiSigner([]SigningKey{
    {Algorithm: HS256, Key: sharedKey},
    {Algorithm: PS384, Key: privateKey},
}, nil)

func NewSigner

func NewSigner(sig SigningKey, opts *SignerOptions) (Signer, error)

NewSigner creates an appropriate signer based on the key type

Example (PublicKey)

Code:

var rsaPrivateKey *rsa.PrivateKey
var ecdsaPrivateKey *ecdsa.PrivateKey

// Instantiate a signer using RSA-PKCS#1v1.5 with SHA-256.
NewSigner(SigningKey{Algorithm: RS256, Key: rsaPrivateKey}, nil)

// Instantiate a signer using ECDSA with SHA-384.
NewSigner(SigningKey{Algorithm: ES384, Key: ecdsaPrivateKey}, nil)

Example (Symmetric)

Code:

var sharedKey []byte

// Instantiate an signer using HMAC-SHA256.
NewSigner(SigningKey{Algorithm: HS256, Key: sharedKey}, nil)

// Instantiate an signer using HMAC-SHA512.
NewSigner(SigningKey{Algorithm: HS512, Key: sharedKey}, nil)

type SignerOptions

SignerOptions represents options that can be set when creating signers.

type SignerOptions struct {
    NonceSource NonceSource
    EmbedJWK    bool

    // Optional map of additional keys to be inserted into the protected header
    // of a JWS object. Some specifications which make use of JWS like to insert
    // additional values here. All values must be JSON-serializable.
    ExtraHeaders map[HeaderKey]interface{}
}

func (*SignerOptions) WithBase64

func (so *SignerOptions) WithBase64(b64 bool) *SignerOptions

WithBase64 adds a base64url-encode payload ("b64") header and returns the updated SignerOptions. When the "b64" value is "false", the payload is not base64 encoded.

func (*SignerOptions) WithContentType

func (so *SignerOptions) WithContentType(contentType ContentType) *SignerOptions

WithContentType adds a content type ("cty") header and returns the updated SignerOptions.

func (*SignerOptions) WithCritical

func (so *SignerOptions) WithCritical(names ...string) *SignerOptions

WithCritical adds the given names to the critical ("crit") header and returns the updated SignerOptions.

func (*SignerOptions) WithHeader

func (so *SignerOptions) WithHeader(k HeaderKey, v interface{}) *SignerOptions

WithHeader adds an arbitrary value to the ExtraHeaders map, initializing it if necessary. It returns itself and so can be used in a fluent style.

func (*SignerOptions) WithType

func (so *SignerOptions) WithType(typ ContentType) *SignerOptions

WithType adds a type ("typ") header and returns the updated SignerOptions.

type SigningKey

SigningKey represents an algorithm/key used to sign a message.

type SigningKey struct {
    Algorithm SignatureAlgorithm
    Key       interface{}
}
