Exploiting JWT Vulnerabilities in WebGoat

Cookies Cookies are key-value pairs stored by the browser on the client side. When a server sends a Set-Cookie header in an HTTP response, the browser saves it locally and includes it in subsequent requests to the same domain.

Because the signature guarantees integrity, any party in possession of the token can trust its contents without contacting the issuer. Typical use cases include single-sign-on flows, micro-service authentication, and stateless session manag ...

JWT-Based Stateless Authentication in Spring Boot REST Services

Why choose JWT over classic session cookies? Cross-origin ready – the token travels in the Authorization header, so CORS is trivial compared to cookie restrictions. Stateless – the server keeps no session store; every request is self-contained. Protocol agnostic – works the same for browsers, mobile apps, or third-party gateways. CSRF safe – n ...

However, real-world applications require maintaining user state across multiple requests. Imagine a user logging into a social platform: they expect their feed, comments, and follows to all occur within their authentica ...
