Estructura de tres partes

Un JWT es encabezado.payload.firma, cada uno codificado en base64url. Esta herramienta separa y decodifica los tres.

Claims de tiempo

Los claims estándar exp, iat y nbf se muestran como fechas legibles con su estado de validez.

Solo decodificación

Esta herramienta decodifica y muestra el token — no verifica la firma. Nunca confíes en los claims sin verificar primero.

¿Qué es Decodificador de JWT?

JSON Web Token (JWT), defined by RFC 7519, is a compact, URL-safe token format for securely transmitting claims between parties. A JWT consists of three Base64URL-encoded parts separated by dots: Header.Payload.Signature. It is widely used for API authentication, OAuth 2.0, and SSO.

¿Cómo funciona Decodificador de JWT?

The Header specifies the signing algorithm (e.g., HS256, RS256). The Payload contains claims (registered, public, private) — statements about an entity. The Signature is computed over the encoded Header and Payload using the algorithm and a secret/private key. To verify, recompute the signature and compare.

Casos de uso habituales

  • API authentication — bearer tokens in Authorization headers
  • OAuth 2.0 — access tokens and ID tokens
  • SSO — share identity across multiple services
  • Stateless sessions — store user info without server-side sessions

JWT vs Session Cookies

Sessions store state server-side; JWTs are stateless and self-contained. JWTs scale better (no session store) but are harder to revoke before expiry. Sessions are more secure for sensitive apps (can revoke instantly); JWTs suit distributed/microservice architectures. Always use HTTPS for both.

Seguridad y privacidad

This tool decodes JWTs locally in your browser — your token never leaves your device. IMPORTANT: Decoding a JWT only reads its contents; it does NOT verify the signature. Never trust JWT claims without server-side signature verification. JWTs are visible to anyone who intercepts them — use HTTPS.

Detalles técnicos

Standard: RFC 7519. Structure: Base64URL(Header).Base64URL(Payload).Base64URL(Signature). Header: alg (HS256/RS256/ES256/none), typ. Registered claims: iss (issuer), sub (subject), aud (audience), exp (expiry), nbf (not before), iat (issued at), jti (JWT ID). Signature: HMAC(SHA-256) for HS256, RSA for RS256. 'alg: none' tokens must always be rejected.

Preguntas frecuentes

Is decoding a JWT the same as verifying it?

No. Decoding reads the payload; verification checks the signature cryptographically. Anyone can decode a JWT; only the server with the secret can verify it. Never trust unverified JWT claims.

What is the 'alg: none' vulnerability?

If a server accepts 'alg: none' tokens, attackers can forge tokens without a signature. Always reject 'none' algorithm and use a hardcoded allowed-algorithms list.

How long should a JWT live?

Access tokens: 15-60 minutes. Refresh tokens: days to weeks. Short-lived access tokens limit damage if leaked. Use refresh tokens to maintain sessions.
