# Change Log

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
|

|
|
## [3.0.0]
|
|
### Changed
|
|
- **BREAKING**: `jwt.verify` now requires an `algorithm` parameter, and
|
|
`jws.createVerify` requires an `algorithm` option. The `"alg"` field
|
|
signature headers is ignored. This mitigates a critical security flaw
|
|
in the library which would allow an attacker to generate signatures with
|
|
arbitrary contents that would be accepted by `jwt.verify`. See
|
|
https://auth0.com/blog/2015/03/31/critical-vulnerabilities-in-json-web-token-libraries/
|
|
for details.

## [2.0.0] - 2015-01-30
|
|
### Changed
|
|
- **BREAKING**: Default payload encoding changed from `binary` to
|
|
`utf8`. `utf8` is a is a more sensible default than `binary` because
|
|
many payloads, as far as I can tell, will contain user-facing
|
|
strings that could be in any language. (<code>[6b6de48]</code>)
|
|
|
|
- Code reorganization, thanks [@fearphage]! (<code>[7880050]</code>)
|
|
|
|
### Added
|
|
- Option in all relevant methods for `encoding`. For those few users
|
|
that might be depending on a `binary` encoding of the messages, this
|
|
is for them. (<code>[6b6de48]</code>)
