JWT Token Bypass
“JWT token bypass” refers to an issue in computer security where an attacker can access protected resources without providing a valid JSON Web Token (JWT) due to vulnerabilities in the implementation of the authentication mechanism.
In simpler terms, when you log in to some website or application, you sometimes use a special code called a “JWT token” to prove that you’re really you. This token acts like a secret password that only you and the website know.
However, if a website or application has bad security flaws, a hacker might be able to access your accounts or data without using your token. This is the “bypass” part, because they don’t have to jump through all the normal security hoops.
It’s important for developers and security experts to be aware of these types of vulnerabilities and work to fix them to ensure their users’ information stays safe.
