Basic JWK functionality: (de)serialization and creating thumbprints.

See RFC 7518 for the details about the fields for various key types.

Self::thumbprint() and the Display implementation allow to get the overall presentation of the key. The latter returns JSON serialization of the key with fields ordered alphabetically. That is, this output for verifying keys can be used to compute key thumbprints.

Serialization

For human-readable formats (e.g., JSON, TOML, YAML), byte fields in JsonWebKey and embedded types (SecretBytes, RsaPrivateParts, RsaPrimeFactor) will be serialized in base64-url encoding with no padding, as per the JWK spec. For other formats (e.g., CBOR), byte fields will be serialized as byte sequences.

Because of the limitations of the CBOR support in serde, a JsonWebKey serialized in CBOR is not compliant with the CBOR Object Signing and Encryption spec (COSE). It can still be a good way to decrease the serialized key size.

Conversions

A JWK can be obtained from signing and verifying keys defined in the alg module via From / Into traits. Conversion from a JWK to a specific key is fallible and can be performed via TryFrom with JwkError as an error type.

As a part of conversion for asymmetric signing keys, it is checked whether the signing and verifying parts of the JWK match; JwkError::MismatchedKeys is returned otherwise. This check is not performed for verifying keys even if the necessary data is present in the provided JWK.

⚠ Warning. Conversions for private RSA keys are not fully compliant with RFC 7518. See the docs for the relevant impls for more details.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

Rsa

Fields

modulus: Cow<'a, [u8]>

Key modulus (n).

public_exponent: Cow<'a, [u8]>

Public exponent (e).

private_parts: Option<RsaPrivateParts<'a>>

Private RSA parameters. Only present for private keys.

Public or private RSA key. Has kty field set to RSA.

EllipticCurve

Fields

curve: Cow<'a, str>

Curve name (crv), such as secp256k1.

x: Cow<'a, [u8]>

x coordinate of the curve point.

y: Cow<'a, [u8]>

y coordinate of the curve point.

secret: Option<SecretBytes<'a>>

Secret scalar (d); not present for public keys.

Public or private key in an ECDSA crypto system. Has kty field set to EC.

Symmetric

Fields

secret: SecretBytes<'a>

Bytes representing this key.

Generic symmetric key, e.g. for HS256 algorithm. Has kty field set to oct.

KeyPair

Fields

curve: Cow<'a, str>

Curve name (crv), such as Ed25519.

x: Cow<'a, [u8]>

Public key. For Ed25519, this is the standard 32-byte public key presentation (x coordinate of a point on the curve + sign).

secret: Option<SecretBytes<'a>>

Secret key (d). For Ed25519, this is the seed.

Generic asymmetric keypair. This key type is used e.g. for Ed25519 keys.
