How Spring does JWT verification based on RS256
The article explains how Spring Security performs JWT verification using the RS256 algorithm. It details the configuration and code necessary for validating JWTs in a microservices architecture. Key components include the SecurityFilterChain and BearerTokenAuthenticationFilter, which manage authentication and authorization processes.
- ▪Spring Security validates JWTs by configuring the filter chain and specifying where to fetch the public key.
- ▪The BearerTokenAuthenticationFilter extracts the token from the Authorization header and checks its validity.
- ▪If authentication succeeds, the SecurityContext is populated with the authenticated token, allowing access to protected resources.
