<section title="Introduction" anchor="Introduction">
<t>
A JSON Web Key (JWK) is a
JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) <xref target="I-D.ietf-json-rfc4627bis"/>
data structure that represents a cryptographic key.
This specification also defines a JSON Web Key Set (JWK Set)
JSON data structure for representing a set of JWKs.
Cryptographic algorithms and identifiers for use with this
specification are described in the separate
JSON Web Algorithms (JWA) <xref target="JWA" /> specification
and IANA registries defined by that specification.
</t>
<t>
Goals for this specification do not include representing
certificate chains, representing certified keys, and replacing
X.509 certificates.
</t>
<t>
JWKs and JWK Sets are used in the
JSON Web Signature (JWS) <xref target="JWS" />
and
JSON Web Encryption (JWE) <xref target="JWE" />
specifications.
</t>
<t>
Names defined by this specification are short because a core goal is
for the resulting representations to be compact.
</t>
<section title="Notational Conventions" anchor="NotationalConventions">
<t>
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL",
"SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY",
and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as
described in
Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels <xref target='RFC2119' />.
If these words are used without being spelled in uppercase then
they are to be interpreted with their normal natural language meanings.
</t>

<section title="Terminology" anchor="Terminology">
<t>
These terms defined by the
JSON Web Signature (JWS) <xref target="JWS"/>
specification are incorporated into this specification:
"Base64url Encoding" and
"Collision-Resistant Name".
</t>

<list style="hanging">
<t hangText="JSON Web Key (JWK)">
A JSON object that represents a cryptographic key.
</t>
<t hangText="JSON Web Key Set (JWK Set)">
A JSON object that contains an array of JWKs as
the value of its <spanx style="verb">keys</spanx> member.
</t>
</list>
</t>
</section>
<section title="JSON Web Key (JWK) Format" anchor="JWKFormat">
<t>
A JSON Web Key (JWK) is a JSON object.
The members of the object represent properties of the key, including its value.
This document defines the key parameters that are not algorithm specific,
and thus common to many keys.
</t>
<t>
In addition to the common parameters, each JWK will have
members that are specific to the kind of key being represented.
These members represent the parameters of the key.
Section 6 of the JSON Web Algorithms (JWA) <xref target="JWA"/> specification
defines multiple kinds of cryptographic keys and their associated members.
</t>
<t>
The member names within a JWK MUST be unique;
recipients MUST either reject JWKs with duplicate member names
or use a JSON parser that returns only the lexically last duplicate member name,
as specified in Section 15.12 (The JSON Object) of
ECMAScript 5.1 <xref target="ECMAScript"/>.
</t>
<t>
Additional members can be present in the JWK;
if not understood by implementations encountering them, they MUST be ignored.
Member names used for representing key parameters
for different keys types need not be distinct.
Any new member name
should either be registered in the IANA JSON Web Key Parameters registry
defined in
<xref target="JWKParamReg" /> or be
a value that contains a Collision-Resistant Name.
</t>
<section title='"kty" (Key Type) Parameter' anchor="ktyDef">
<t>
The <spanx style="verb">kty</spanx> (key type) member
identifies the cryptographic algorithm family used with the key.
<spanx style="verb">kty</spanx> values should either be
registered in the IANA JSON Web Key Types registry
defined in
<xref target="JWA" /> or be
a value that contains a Collision-Resistant Name.
The <spanx style="verb">kty</spanx> value is a case-sensitive string.
This member MUST be present in a JWK.
</t>
<t>
A list of defined <spanx style="verb">kty</spanx> values can be found
in the IANA JSON Web Key Types registry
defined in
<xref target="JWA"/>;
the initial contents of this registry are the values defined in
Section 6.1 of the
JSON Web Algorithms (JWA) <xref target="JWA" /> specification.
</t>
<t>
The key type definitions include specification of the
members to be used for those key types.
Additional members used with <spanx style="verb">kty</spanx> values can
also be found
in the IANA JSON Web Key Parameters registry
defined in
<xref target="JWKParamReg"/>.
</t>
</section>
<section title='"use" (Public Key Use) Parameter' anchor="useDef">
<t>
The <spanx style="verb">use</spanx> (public key use) member identifies the
intended use of the public key.
The <spanx style="verb">use</spanx> parameter is intended for use cases
in which it is useful to distinguish between public signing keys
and public encryption keys. It is not intended for use cases
in which private or symmetric keys may also be present.
</t>
<t>
Values defined by this specification are:
<list style='symbols'>
<t><spanx style="verb">sig</spanx> (signature)</t>
<t><spanx style="verb">enc</spanx> (encryption)</t>
</list>
Other values MAY be used.
Public Key Use values can be registered in the IANA
JSON Web Key Use registry
defined in
<xref target="UseReg"/>.
The <spanx style="verb">use</spanx> value is a case-sensitive string.
Use of the <spanx style="verb">use</spanx> member is OPTIONAL,
unless the application requires its presence.
</t>
<t>
When a key is used to wrap another key and a key use designation
for the first key is desired, the <spanx style="verb">enc</spanx> (encryption)
key use value SHOULD be used, since key wrapping is a kind of encryption.
The <spanx style="verb">enc</spanx> value SHOULD also be used for
public keys used for key agreement operations.
(The <spanx style="verb">alg</spanx> member can be used to specify the
particular cryptographic operation to be performed, when desired.)
</t>
</section>
<section title='"key_ops" (Key Operations) Parameter' anchor="key_opsDef">
<t>
The <spanx style="verb">key_ops</spanx> (key operations) member
identifies the operations(s) that the key is intended to be used for.
The <spanx style="verb">key_ops</spanx> parameter is intended for use cases
in which public, private, or symmetric keys may be present.
</t>
<t>
Its value is an array of key operation values.
Values defined by this specification are:
<list style='symbols'>
<t><spanx style="verb">sign</spanx> (compute signature or MAC)</t>
<t><spanx style="verb">verify</spanx> (verify signature or MAC)</t>
<t><spanx style="verb">encrypt</spanx> (encrypt content)</t>
<t><spanx style="verb">decrypt</spanx> (decrypt content and validate decryption, if applicable)</t>
<t><spanx style="verb">wrap</spanx> (encrypt key)</t>
<t><spanx style="verb">unwrap</spanx> (decrypt key and validate decryption, if applicable)</t>
<t><spanx style="verb">deriveKey</spanx> (derive key)</t>
<t><spanx style="verb">deriveBits</spanx> (derive bits not to be used as a key)</t>
</list>
(Note that the <spanx style="verb">key_ops</spanx> values
intentionally match the <spanx style="verb">KeyUsage</spanx> values defined in
the <xref target="WebCrypto">Web Cryptography API</xref> specification.)
</t>
<t>
Other values MAY be used.
Key operation values can be registered in the IANA
JSON Web Key Operations registry defined in <xref target="KeyOpsReg"/>.
The key operation values are case-sensitive strings.
Duplicate key operation values MUST NOT be present in the array.
</t>
<t>
Use of the <spanx style="verb">key_ops</spanx> member is OPTIONAL,
unless the application requires its presence.
</t>
<t>
Multiple unrelated key operations SHOULD NOT be specified for a key
because of the potential vulnerabilities associated with
using the same key with multiple algorithms.
Thus, the combinations
<spanx style="verb">sign</spanx> with <spanx style="verb">verify</spanx>,
<spanx style="verb">encrypt</spanx> with <spanx style="verb">decrypt</spanx>, and
<spanx style="verb">wrap</spanx> with <spanx style="verb">unwrap</spanx>
are permitted, but other combinations SHOULD NOT be used.
</t>
<t>
The <spanx style="verb">use</spanx> and
<spanx style="verb">key_ops</spanx> JWK members SHOULD NOT be used together.
Applications should specify which of these members they use,
if either are to be used by the application.
</t>
</section>
<section title='"alg" (Algorithm) Parameter' anchor="algDef">
<t>
The <spanx style="verb">alg</spanx> (algorithm) member identifies the
algorithm intended for use with the key.
The values used should either be registered in the
IANA JSON Web Signature and Encryption Algorithms registry
defined in
<xref target="JWA" /> or be
a value that contains a Collision-Resistant Name.
Use of this member is OPTIONAL.
</t>
</section>
<section title='"kid" (Key ID) Parameter' anchor="kidDef">
<t>
The <spanx style="verb">kid</spanx> (key ID) member can
be used to match a specific key. This can be used, for
instance, to choose among a set of keys within a JWK Set
during key rollover.
The structure of the <spanx style="verb">kid</spanx> value is unspecified.
When <spanx style="verb">kid</spanx> values are used
within a JWK Set, different keys within the JWK Set SHOULD use distinct
<spanx style="verb">kid</spanx> values.
(One example in which different keys might use the same
<spanx style="verb">kid</spanx> value is if they have different
<spanx style="verb">kty</spanx> (key type) values but are considered
to be equivalent alternatives by the application using them.)
The <spanx style="verb">kid</spanx> value is a case-sensitive string.
Use of this member is OPTIONAL.
</t>
<t>
When used with JWS or JWE, the <spanx style="verb">kid</spanx>
value is used to match a JWS or JWE <spanx style="verb">kid</spanx>
Header Parameter value.
</t>
</section>
<section title='"x5u" (X.509 URL) Parameter' anchor="x5uDef">
<t>
The <spanx style="verb">x5u</spanx> (X.509 URL) member
is a URI <xref target="RFC3986"/> that refers to a resource for
an X.509 public key certificate or certificate chain <xref target="RFC5280"/>.
The identified resource MUST provide a representation of
the certificate or certificate chain that conforms to
<xref target="RFC5280">RFC 5280</xref> in PEM encoded form
<xref target="RFC1421"/>.
The key in the first certificate MUST match the public key
represented by other members of the JWK.
The protocol used to acquire the resource MUST provide
integrity protection; an HTTP GET request to retrieve the
certificate MUST use TLS <xref target="RFC2818"/> <xref target="RFC5246"/>;
the identity of the server MUST be validated, as per
Section 3.1 of HTTP Over TLS <xref target='RFC2818'/>.
Use of this member is OPTIONAL.
</t>
<t>
While there is no requirement that members other than those representing
the public key be populated when an <spanx style="verb">x5u</spanx>
member is present, doing so may improve interoperability for
applications that do not handle PKIX certificates.
If other members are present, the contents of those members MUST be
semantically consistent with the related fields in the first certificate.
For instance, if the <spanx style="verb">use</spanx> member is present,
then it needs to allow for only a subset of the usages that are permitted
by the certificate.
Similarly, if the <spanx style="verb">alg</spanx> member is present,
it should represent an algorithm that the certificate allows.
</t>
</section>
<section title='"x5c" (X.509 Certificate Chain) Parameter' anchor="x5cDef">
<t>
The <spanx style="verb">x5c</spanx> (X.509 Certificate Chain) member
contains a chain of one or more PKIX certificates <xref target="RFC5280"/>.
The certificate chain is represented as
a JSON array of certificate value strings.
Each string in the array is a base64 encoded
(<xref target="RFC4648"/> Section 4 -- not base64url encoded)
DER <xref target="ITU.X690.1994"/> PKIX certificate value.
The PKIX certificate containing the key value
MUST be the first certificate.
This MAY be followed by additional certificates, with each
subsequent certificate being the one used to certify the
previous one.
The key in the first certificate MUST match the public key
represented by other members of the JWK.
Use of this member is OPTIONAL.
</t>
<t>
As with the <spanx style="verb">x5u</spanx> member,
members other than those representing the public key may also be populated
when an <spanx style="verb">x5c</spanx> member is present.
If other members are present, the contents of those members MUST be
semantically consistent with the related fields in the first certificate.
See the last paragraph of <xref target="x5uDef"/>
for additional guidance on this.
</t>
</section>
<section title='"x5t" (X.509 Certificate SHA-1 Thumbprint) Parameter'
anchor="x5tDef">
<t>
The <spanx style="verb">x5t</spanx> (X.509 Certificate SHA-1 Thumbprint)
member is a base64url encoded
SHA-1 thumbprint (a.k.a. digest) of the DER encoding of
an X.509 certificate <xref target="RFC5280"/>.
The key in the certificate MUST match the public key
represented by other members of the JWK.
Use of this member is OPTIONAL.
</t>
<t>
If, in the future, certificate thumbprints need to be
computed using hash functions other than SHA-1, it is
suggested that additional related JWK parameters be
defined for that purpose. For example, it is suggested
that a new <spanx style="verb">x5t#S256</spanx>
(X.509 Certificate Thumbprint using SHA-256) JWK parameter
could be defined by registering it in the IANA
JSON Web Key Parameters registry
defined in
<xref target="JWKParamReg" />.
</t>
<t>
As with the <spanx style="verb">x5u</spanx> member,
members other than those representing the public key may also be populated
when an <spanx style="verb">x5t</spanx> member is present.
If other members are present, the contents of those members MUST be
semantically consistent with the related fields in the referenced certificate.
See the last paragraph of <xref target="x5uDef"/>
for additional guidance on this.
</t>
</section>
</section>
<section title="JSON Web Key Set (JWK Set) Format" anchor="JWKSet">
<t>
A JSON Web Key Set (JWK Set) is a JSON object representing a set of JWKs.
The JSON object MUST have a <spanx style="verb">keys</spanx> member,
which is an array of JWK objects.
</t>
<t>
The member names within a JWK Set MUST be unique;
recipients MUST either reject JWK Sets with duplicate member names
or use a JSON parser that returns only the lexically last duplicate member name,
as specified in Section 15.12 (The JSON Object) of
ECMAScript 5.1 <xref target="ECMAScript"/>.
</t>
<t>
Additional members can be present in the JWK Set;
if not understood by implementations encountering them, they MUST be ignored.
Parameters for representing additional properties of JWK Sets
should either be registered in the IANA JSON Web Key Set Parameters registry
defined in
<xref target="JWKSetParamReg" /> or be
a value that contains a Collision-Resistant Name.
</t>
<t>
Implementations SHOULD ignore JWKs within a JWK Set that use
<spanx style="verb">kty</spanx> (key type) values that
are not understood by them,
are missing required members,
or for which values are out of the supported ranges.
</t>
<section title='"keys" Parameter' anchor="keysDef">
<t>
The value of the <spanx style="verb">keys</spanx>
member is an array of JWK values.
By default, the order of the JWK values within the array does not imply
an order of preference among them, although applications of JWK Sets
can choose to assign a meaning to the order for their purposes, if desired.
This member MUST be present in a JWK Set.
</t>
</section>
</section>
<section title="String Comparison Rules" anchor="StringComparison">
<t>
The string comparison rules for this specification are the same as
those defined in
Section 5.3 of <xref target="JWS" />.
</t>
</section>
<section title="Encrypted JWK and Encrypted JWK Set Formats" anchor="EncryptedJWK">
<t>
JWKs containing non-public key material will need to be encrypted
in some contexts to prevent the disclosure of private or symmetric
key values to unintended parties.
The use of an Encrypted JWK, which is a JWE with the UTF-8 encoding of a JWK
as its plaintext value, is recommended for this purpose.
The processing of Encrypted JWKs is identical to
the processing of other JWEs.
A <spanx style="verb">cty</spanx> (content type) Header Parameter
value of <spanx style="verb">jwk+json</spanx> MUST be used to indicate
that the content of the JWE is a JWK,
unless the application knows that the encrypted content is
a JWK by another means or convention.
</t>
<t>
JWK Sets containing non-public key material will similarly need to be encrypted.
The use of an Encrypted JWK Set, which is a JWE with the UTF-8 encoding of a JWK Set
as its plaintext value, is recommended for this purpose.
The processing of Encrypted JWK Sets is identical to
the processing of other JWEs.
A <spanx style="verb">cty</spanx> (content type) Header Parameter
value of <spanx style="verb">jwk-set+json</spanx> MUST be used to indicate
that the content of the JWE is a JWK Set,
unless the application knows that the encrypted content is
a JWK Set by another means or convention.
</t>
<t>
See <xref target="example-encrypted-jwk"/> for an example encrypted JWK.
</t>
</section>
<section title="IANA Considerations" anchor="IANA">
<t>
The following registration procedure is used for all the
registries established by this specification.
</t>
<t>
Values are registered with a Specification Required
<xref target="RFC5226"/> after a two-week review period on the [TBD]@ietf.org mailing
list, on the advice of one or more Designated Experts. However, to allow for the
allocation of values prior to publication, the Designated Expert(s) may approve
registration once they are satisfied that such a specification will be published.
</t>
<t>
Registration requests must be sent to the [TBD]@ietf.org mailing list for review and
comment, with an appropriate subject (e.g., "Request for access token type: example").
[[ Note to the RFC Editor:
The name of the mailing list should be determined in consultation
with the IESG and IANA. Suggested name: jose-reg-review. ]]
</t>
<t>
Within the review period, the Designated Expert(s) will either approve or
deny the registration request, communicating this decision to the review list and IANA.
Denials should include an explanation and, if applicable, suggestions as to how to make
the request successful.
Registration requests that are undetermined for
a period longer than 21 days can be brought to the IESG's attention
(using the iesg@iesg.org mailing list) for resolution.
</t>
<t>
Criteria that should be applied by the Designated Expert(s) includes
determining whether the proposed registration duplicates existing functionality,
determining whether it is likely to be of general applicability
or whether it is useful only for a single application,
and whether the registration makes sense.
</t>
<t>
IANA must only accept registry updates from the Designated Expert(s) and should direct
all requests for registration to the review mailing list.
</t>
<t>
It is suggested that multiple Designated Experts be appointed who are able to
represent the perspectives of different applications using this specification,
in order to enable broadly-informed review of registration decisions.
In cases where a registration decision could be perceived as
creating a conflict of interest for a particular Expert,
that Expert should defer to the judgment of the other Expert(s).
</t>
<section title="JSON Web Key Parameters Registry" anchor="JWKParamReg">
<t>
This specification establishes the
IANA JSON Web Key Parameters registry
for JWK parameter names.
The registry records the parameter name,
the key type(s) that the parameter is used with,
and a reference to the specification that defines it.
It also records whether the parameter conveys public or private information.
This specification registers the parameter names defined in
<xref target="JWKFormat"/>.
The same JWK parameter name may be registered multiple times,
provided that duplicate parameter registrations are only for
key type specific JWK parameters; in this case, the meaning
of the duplicate parameter name is disambiguated by the
<spanx style="verb">kty</spanx> value of the JWK containing it.

The name requested (e.g., "example").
Because a core goal of this specification is for the resulting
representations to be compact, it is RECOMMENDED that the name be short

This name is case-sensitive.
Names may not match other registered names in a case-insensitive manner
unless the Designated Expert(s) state that there is a compelling reason
to allow an exception in this particular case.
However, matching names may be registered, provided that the
accompanying sets of <spanx style="verb">kty</spanx> values that
the Parameter Name is used with are disjoint;
for the purposes of matching <spanx style="verb">kty</spanx> values,
"*" matches all values.

<section title="Security Considerations" anchor="Security">
<t>
All of the security issues faced by any cryptographic application
must be faced by a JWS/JWE/JWK agent. Among these issues are protecting
the user's private and symmetric keys, preventing various attacks, and helping the
user avoid mistakes such as inadvertently encrypting a message for
the wrong recipient. The entire list of security considerations is
beyond the scope of this document, but some significant considerations are
listed here.
</t>
<t>
One should place no more trust in the data associated with a key
than in than the method by which it was obtained and
in the trustworthiness of the entity asserting an association with the key.
Any data associated with a key that is obtained in an untrusted manner
should be treated with skepticism.
</t>
<t>
Private and symmetric keys MUST be protected from disclosure
to unintended parties. One recommended means of doing so is
to encrypt JWKs or JWK Sets containing them by using the JWK
or JWK Set value as the plaintext of a JWE.
</t>
<t>
The security considerations in
<xref target="RFC3447">RFC 3447</xref> and <xref target="RFC6030">RFC 6030</xref>
about protecting private and symmetric keys, key usage, and information leakage
also apply to this specification.
</t>
<t>
The security considerations in
<xref target="W3C.CR-xmldsig-core2-20120124">XML DSIG 2.0</xref>,
about key representations also apply to this specification,
other than those that are XML specific.
</t>
<t>
The TLS Requirements in <xref target="JWS" />
also apply to this specification.

<spanx style="verb">key_ops</spanx> (key operations).
</t>
<t>
Clarified that <spanx style="verb">use</spanx> is meant for public key
use cases, <spanx style="verb">key_ops</spanx> is meant for use cases
in which public, private, or symmetric keys may be present,
and that <spanx style="verb">use</spanx> and
<spanx style="verb">key_ops</spanx> should not be used together.
</t>
<t>
Replaced references to RFC 4627 with draft-ietf-json-rfc4627bis,
addressing issue #90.

<list style='symbols'>
<t>
Refined the <spanx style="verb">typ</spanx> and
<spanx style="verb">cty</spanx> definitions to always be
MIME Media Types, with the omission of "application/"
prefixes recommended for brevity,

<t>
Added an example encrypting an RSA private key with
<spanx style="verb">PBES2-HS256+A128KW</spanx> and
<spanx style="verb">A128CBC-HS256</spanx>.
Thanks to Matt Miller for producing this!
</t>
<t>
Processing rules occurring in both
JWS and JWK are now referenced in JWS by JWK, rather than duplicated,
addressing issue #57.
</t>
<t>
Terms used in multiple documents are now defined in
one place and incorporated by reference.
Some lightly used or obvious terms were also removed.
This addresses issue #58.

<t>
Stated that recipients MUST either reject JWKs and JWK Sets with
duplicate member names
or use a JSON parser that returns only
the lexically last duplicate member name.
</t>
</list>
</t>
<t>
-11
<list style='symbols'>
<t>
Stated that when <spanx style="verb">kid</spanx> values are used
within a JWK Set, different keys within the JWK Set SHOULD use distinct
<spanx style="verb">kid</spanx> values.
</t>
<t>
Added optional <spanx style="verb">x5u</spanx> (X.509 URL),
<spanx style="verb">x5t</spanx> (X.509 Certificate Thumbprint), and

the parameter conveys public or private information.
</t>
<t>
Registered <spanx style="verb">application/jwk+json</spanx> and
<spanx style="verb">application/jwk-set+json</spanx> MIME types

</t>
<t>
Defined that members that are not understood must be ignored.
</t>
</list>
</t>
<t>
-08
<list style='symbols'>
<t>
Changed the name of the JWK key type parameter from
<spanx style="verb">alg</spanx> to <spanx style="verb">kty</spanx>
to enable use of <spanx style="verb">alg</spanx> to indicate
the particular algorithm that the key is intended to be used with.
</t>
<t>
Clarified statements of the form "This member is OPTIONAL"
to "Use of this member is OPTIONAL".

-07
<list style='symbols'>
<t>
Changed the name of the JWK RSA modulus parameter from
<spanx style="verb">mod</spanx> to <spanx style="verb">n</spanx>
and the name of the JWK RSA exponent parameter from
<spanx style="verb">xpo</spanx> to <spanx style="verb">e</spanx>,
so that the identifiers are the same as those used in RFC 3447.
</t>
</list>
</t>
<t>
-06
<list style='symbols'>
<t>
Changed the name of the JWK RSA exponent parameter from
<spanx style="verb">exp</spanx> to <spanx style="verb">xpo</spanx>
so as to allow the potential use of the name <spanx style="verb">exp</spanx>
for a future extension that might define an expiration parameter for keys.
(The <spanx style="verb">exp</spanx> name is already used for this
purpose in the JWT specification.)
</t>
<t>
Clarify that the <spanx style="verb">alg</spanx> (algorithm family)
member is REQUIRED.
</t>
<t>
Correct an instance of "JWK" that should have been "JWK Set".
</t>

in a case insensitive manner SHOULD NOT be accepted."
</t>
<t>
Described additional open issues.
</t>
<t>
Applied editorial suggestions.
</t>
</list>
</t>

<t>
Added "Collision Resistant Namespace" to the terminology section.
</t>
<t>
Changed registration requirements from RFC Required to
Specification Required with Expert Review.
</t>

<list style='symbols'>
<t>
Simplified JWK terminology to get replace the "JWK Key Object" and
"JWK Container Object" terms with simply "JSON Web Key (JWK)"
and "JSON Web Key Set (JWK Set)" and to eliminate potential
confusion between single keys and sets of keys.
As part of this change, the top-level member name for a
set of keys was changed from <spanx style="verb">jwk</spanx>
to <spanx style="verb">keys</spanx>.
</t>
<t>
Clarified that values with duplicate member names MUST be rejected.
</t>
<t>
Established JSON Web Key Set Parameters registry.
</t>
<t>
Explicitly listed non-goals in the introduction.
</t>
<t>
