Overview

This is a library offering a DSL (domain-specific language) for defining how a set of claims should be made selectively disclosable.

Library implements SD-JWT draft 12 is implemented in Swift.

Use cases supported

Issuance

To issue a SD-JWT, an Issuer should have:

  • Decided on how the issued claims will be selectively disclosed (check DSL examples)
  • Whether to use decoy digests or not
  • An appropriate signing key pair
  • optionally, decided if and how will include holder's public key to the SD-JWT

In the example bellow, Issuer decides to issue an SD-JWT as follows:

  • Includes in plain standard JWT claims (sub,iss, iat, exp)
  • Makes selectively disclosable a claim named address using structured disclosure. This allows to individually disclose every subclaim of address
  • Uses his key pair to sign the SD-JWT
let issuersKeyPair: KeyPair!

let signedSDJWT = try SDJWTIssuer.issue(issuersPrivateKey: issuersKeyPair.private,
                                        decoys: 0, // Can be omitted
                                        header: .init(algorithm: .ES256)) {
  ConstantClaims.sub(subject: "6c5c0a49-b589-431d-bae7-219122a9ec2c")
  ConstantClaims.iss(domain: "https://example.com/issuer")
  ConstantClaims.iat(time: 1516239022)
  ConstantClaims.exp(time: 1516239022)
  ObjectClaim("address") {
    FlatDisclosedClaim("street_address", "Schulstr. 12")
    FlatDisclosedClaim("locality", "Schulpforta")
    FlatDisclosedClaim("region", "Sachsen-Anhalt")
    FlatDisclosedClaim("country", "DE")
  }
}

Holder Verification

In this case, the SD-JWT is expected to be in serialized form.

Holder must know:

the public key of the Issuer and the algorithm used by the Issuer to sign the SD-JWT

let unverifiedSdJwtString = "..."
let issuersKeyPair: KeyPair!

SDJWTVerifier(parser: CompactParser(serialisedString: unverifiedSdJwtString))
  .verifyIssuance { jws in
    SignatureVerifier(signedJWT: jws, publicKey: issuersKeyPair.public)
}

Presentation Verification

In simple (not enveloped) format

In this case, the SD-JWT is expected to be in Combined Presentation format. Verifier should know the public key of the Issuer and the algorithm used by the Issuer to sign the SD-JWT. Also, if verification includes Key Binding, the Verifier must also know a how the public key of the Holder was included in the SD-JWT and which algorithm the Holder used to sign the Key Binding JWT

// Issue a SDJWT to passed to a holder from an issuer
// Including Holders Public key
let issuerSignedSDJWT = try SDJWTIssuer
    .issue(issuersPrivateKey: issuersKeyPair.private,
           header: .init(algorithm: .ES256)) {
  // Claims disclosed or plain
  ...
  // add holders public key in the payload
  ObjectClaim("cnf") {
    ObjectClaim("jwk") {
      PlainClaim("kty", "EC")
      PlainClaim("x", "EOid5YEjFXpCzaqyEqckcA5TBGxWEVYCiKz05qO5r_c")
      PlainClaim("y", "7TTgK6fW5oxaN8m22f_HPVJ9Ny3KBKIvLcBIpUpk-7A")
      PlainClaim("crv", "P-256")
    }
  }
}

// Issue a SDJWT for presentation to a verifier
// Expect a verifier Challenge in json format to sign
// And prove identity
// Chose the subset of disclosures to present if needed
let holderSDJWTRepresentation = try SDJWTIssuer
  .presentation(holdersPrivateKey: holdersKeyPair.private,
                signedSDJWT: issuerSignedSDJWT,
                disclosuresToPresent: issuerSignedSDJWT.disclosures.filter({ _ in true }),
                keyBindingJWT: KBJWT(header: .init(algorithm: .ES256),
                                     kbJwtPayload: VerifiersChallenge.json)

SDJWTVerifier(sdJwt: holderSDJWTRepresentation)
.verifyPresentation { jws in
    try SignatureVerifier(signedJWT: jws, publicKey: issuersKeyPair.public)
  } keyBindingVerifier: { jws, holdersPublicKey in
    try KeyBindingVerifier(challenge: jws, extractedKey: holdersPublicKey)
}                                                           

In enveloped format

In this case, the SD-JWT is expected to be in envelope format. Verifier should know:

  • the public key of the Issuer and the algorithm used by the Issuer to sign the SD-JWT.
  • the public key and the signing algorithm used by the Holder to sign the envelope JWT, since the envelope acts like a proof of possession (replacing the key binding JWT)
let sdjwtOnPayload = "...."

try SDJWTVerifier(parser: CompactParser(serialisedString: sdjwtOnPayload))
  .verifyEnvelope(envelope: envelopedJws) { jws in
    // to verify the enveloped sdjwt
    try SignatureVerifier(signedJWT: jws, publicKey: issuersKeyPair.public)
  } holdersSignatureVerifier: {
    // to verify the container jwt
    try SignatureVerifier(signedJWT: envelopedJws, publicKey: holdersKeyPair.public)
  } claimVerifier: { audClaim, iat in
    ClaimsVerifier(iat: iat,
                   iatValidWindow: .init(startTime: Date(),
                                         endTime: Date()),
                   audClaim: audClaim,
                   expectedAud: "clientId")
  }

Recreate original claims

Given a complex structure as per Example 3: Complex Structured SD-JWT and a subset of claims we can recreate the initial JSON of the SD-JWT.

let example3SDJWTSerialisedFormat = "..."
let sdjwt = CompactParser(serialisedString: example3SDJWTSerialisedFormat).getSignedSdJwt()

// array of digests of disclosures found on payload for collision 
sdjwt.recreateClaims().digestsFoundOnPayload checking
// the recreated JSON
sdjwt.recreateClaims().recreatedClaims

DSL Examples

All examples assume that we have the following claim set

{
  "sub": "6c5c0a49-b589-431d-bae7-219122a9ec2c",
  "address": {
    "street_address": "Schulstr. 12",
    "locality": "Schulpforta",
    "region": "Sachsen-Anhalt",
    "country": "DE"
  }
}

SD-JWT VC support

The library supports verifying SD-JWT-based Verifiable Credentials. More specifically, Issuer-signed JWT Verification Key Validation support is provided by SDJWTVerifier.

Please check PresentationTest for code examples on creating a holder presentation.

Please check VcVerifierTest for code examples on verifying an Issuance SD-JWT VC and a Presentation SD-JWT VC (including verification of the Key Binding JWT).
