I am trying to make a Json web token authentication system with Go however I cant seem to get the parsing of the web token working. The error occurs in the following function.
func RequireTokenAuthentication(rw http.ResponseWriter, req *http.Request, next http.HandlerFunc) {
authBackend := InitJWTAuthenticationBackend()
jwtString := req.Header.Get("Authorization")
token, err := jwt.Parse(jwtString, func(token *jwt.Token) (interface{}, error) {
if _, ok := token.Method.(*jwt.SigningMethodRSA); !ok {
log.Println("Unexpected signing method")
return nil, fmt.Errorf("Unexpected signing method: %v", token.Header["alg"])
} else {
log.Println("The token has been successfully returned")
return authBackend.PublicKey, nil
}
})
log.Println(token)
log.Println(token.Valid)
if err == nil && token.Valid && !authBackend.IsInBlacklist(req.Header.Get("Authorization")) {
next(rw, req)
} else {
rw.WriteHeader(http.StatusUnauthorized)
log.P
rintln("Status unauthorized RequireTokenAuthentication")
}
}
returns the following log

and here is the cURL that I am using to initiate it

I have also tried curl without Bearer

The error is occurring because the token is invalid token.Valid = false I have generated it using the following process.
Here is the router
router.HandleFunc("/token-auth", controllers.Login).Methods("POST")
Here is the login controller
func Login(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
requestUser := new(models.User)
decoder := json.NewDecoder(r.Body)
decoder.Decode(&requestUser)
responseStatus, token := utils.Login(requestUser) //here the util file seen below is used
w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
w.WriteHeader(responseStatus)
w.Write(token)
}
This is the util file
func Login(requestUser *models.User) (int, []byte) {
authBackend := authentication.InitJWTAuthenticationBackend()
if authBackend.Authenticate(requestUser) {
token, err := authBackend.GenerateToken(requestUser.UUID)
if err != nil {
return http.StatusInternalServerError, []byte("")
} else {
response, _ := json.Marshal(parameters.TokenAuthentication{token})
return http.StatusOK, response
}
}
return http.StatusUnauthorized, []byte("")
}
and here is the method used to generate the token
func (backend *JWTAuthenticationBackend) GenerateToken(userUUID string) (string, error) {
token := jwt.New(jwt.SigningMethodRS512)
claims := token.Claims.(jwt.MapClaims)
claims["exp"] = time.Now().Add(time.Hour * time.Duration(settings.Get().JWTExpirationDelta)).Unix()
claims["iat"] = time.Now().Unix()
claims["sub"] = userUUID
tokenString, err := token.SignedString(backend.privateKey)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
return "", err
}
return tokenString, nil
}
How do I fix the Token Parsing system so that the token is valid? If you need any additional information I would be more than happy to make an edit with the respective information. Thank
