      <title>GHSA-869p-cjfg-cm3x — auth0/node-jws Improperly Verifies HMAC Signature</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/ghsa-869p-cjfg-cm3x</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; npm: jws&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Overview
An improper signature verification vulnerability exists when using auth0/node-jws with the HS256 algorithm under specific conditions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Am I Affected?
You are affected by this vulnerability if you meet all of the following preconditions:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1. Application uses the auth0/node-jws implementation of JSON Web Signatures, versions &amp;lt;=3.2.2 || 4.0.0
2. Application uses the jws.createVerify() function for HMAC algorithms
3. Application uses user-provided data from the JSON Web Signature Protected Header or Payload in the HMAC secret lookup routines&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You are NOT affected by this vulnerability if you meet any of the following preconditions:
1. Application uses the jws.verify() interface (note: `auth0/node-jsonwebtoken` users fall into this category and are therefore NOT affected by this vulnerability)
2. Application uses only asymmetric algorithms (e.g. RS256)
3. Application doesn’t use user-provided data from the JSON Web Signature Protected Header or Payload in the HMAC secret lookup routines&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Fix
Upgrade auth0/node-jws version to version 3.2.3 or 4.0.1&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;### Acknowledgement
Okta would like to thank Félix Charette for discovering this vulnerability.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
