From #3465 (comment)

Not against using a replace if vndr can do that. Should we consider using the fork which the original repository now links to? https://github.com/golang-jwt/jwt

Looks like there's another fork as well (and that's the "official" replacement?)

Looks like the official repository does not have the security fix that the orm3tech-oss/jwt-go fork has; switching to github.com/golang-jwt/jwt removes these changes, which seem to be related to that security fix: form3tech-oss/jwt-go@v3.2.3...v3.2.4 (see form3tech-oss/jwt-go#14)

I believe golang-jwt/jwt v3.2.1 fixed CVE-2020-26160 with different code: golang-jwt/jwt@0f726ea

The equivalent to that one is in form3tech-oss/jwt-go@bb5e6d8 for the form3tech repository. Looks like v3.2.4 is fixing a different security issue?

In that case the fix for CVE-2020-26160 is in form3tech-oss/jwt.go v3.2.2 and both #3459 and #3465 do fix CVE-2020-26160.

Correct. I suspect no CVE has been requested for the security fix in form3tech-oss/jwt-go v3.2.4. If it's verified to be a security issue, a CVE should probably be requested (both for form3tech-oss/jwt-go, and for github.com/golang-jwt/jwt / dgrijalva/jwt-go)

Shall we merge those two PRs while we wait for the situation with this new vulerability to be resolved upstream or do you think the workaround in this PR is a better fix for right now?

My concern with #3465 is that it's pulling in 5.6k lines of code that's unrelated to the security fix (and which would have to be reviewed), with the goal to pull in a security fix that's < 50 lines. And (worse?) switching to a non-official fork (which, based on the go.mod addition, is at least somewhat "dubious" on quality).

From that perspective, I'd rather take the official fork (ideally with golang-jwt/jwt#40, if that's confirmed to be an issue), as is done in this PR.

For the main branch, I don't think there's an direct urgency to get it merged, unless a v3.0.0 release is pending.

Looks like https://github.com/golang-jwt/jwt is the best option, and golang-jwt/jwt#40 is currently being reviewed, so I squashed the commits, and went for that fork (as it's the official replacement).

Updated to v3.2.2, which was just released

Looks like we need to update Golang as well;

ok, works with Go 1.16, but should be moved to a separate PR

Rebased, because #3472 was merged

Thinking a bit more about this PR: does this project actually perform the validation of the JWT token? Because if not, then this patch may not be needed at all

@thaJeztah distribution has token auth package that does verification https://github.com/distribution/distribution/blob/release/2.7/registry/auth/token/token.go
