    File reference keys leads to incorrect hashes on HMAC algorithms

    CVE-2021-41106 · GHSA-7322-jrq4-x5hf

    Affected
    • Packagist lcobucci/jwt >= 3.4.0, < 3.4.6; >= 4.0.0, < 4.0.4; >= 4.1.0, < 4.1.5
    Fixed in
    4.1.53.4.64.0.4· Vendor fix available
    Issue
    Impact Users of HMAC-based algorithms (HS256, HS384, and HS512) combined with Lcobucci\JWT\Signer\Key\LocalFileReference as key are having their tokens issued/validated using the file path as hashing key - instead of the contents. The HMAC hashing functions take any string as input and, since users can issue and validate tokens, people are lead to believe that everything works properly. Patches All versions have been patched to always load the file contents, deprecated the Lcobucci\JWT\Signer\Key\LocalFileReference, and suggest Lcobucci\JWT\Signer\Key\InMemory as the alternative. Workarounds Use Lcobucci\JWT\Signer\Key\InMemory instead of Lcobucci\JWT\Signer\Key\LocalFileReference to create the instances of your keys:

    Recommended action: Upgrade to 4.1.5, 4.0.4 or 3.4.6 by release line, then redeploy and verify.A vendor fix does not resolve your finding until you verify it in your own systems.
