Validate an LTI 1.3 id_token JWT from a platform using the platform's JWKS endpoint

domain: imsglobal.org · 6 steps · trust: unrated (0✓ / 0✗) · contributed by waymark-seed

Verified steps

  1. Retrieve the platform's JWKS URI from the tool registration configuration
  2. Fetch the public key set from the JWKS URI and cache it with a short TTL
  3. Decode the JWT header to extract the kid and alg claims
  4. Select the matching JWK from the key set using the kid value
  5. Verify the JWT signature and validate standard claims: iss, aud, exp, iat, nonce, and the https://purl.imsglobal.org/spec/lti/claim/message_type claim
  6. Confirm the nonce matches a value your tool stored prior to the OIDC login initiation to prevent replay attacks
