Security-focused ESLint plugin for JWT operations. Detects algorithm confusion (CVE-2022-23540), weak secrets, missing validation, and library-specific vulnerabilities across jsonwebtoken, jose, express-jwt, @nestjs/jwt, jwks-rsa, and jwt-decode.
npm install eslint-plugin-jwt
Security validation for JSON Web Tokens (JWT) implementation (signing, verification).
This plugin provides Security validation for JSON Web Tokens (JWT) implementation (signing, verification).
By using this plugin, you can proactively identify and mitigate security risks across your entire codebase.
Interlace fosters strength through integration. Instead of stacking isolated rules, we interlace security directly into your workflow to create a resilient fabric of code. We believe tools should guide rather than gatekeep, providing educational feedback that strengthens the developer with every interaction.

๐ CWE-347 OWASP:A02-Crypto CVSS:9.8 | Using alg:"none" bypasses signature verification
Fix: Remove "none" and use RS256, ES256, or other secure algorithms

`By providing this structured context (CWE, OWASP, Fix), we enable AI tools to reason about the security flaw rather than hallucinating. This allows Copilot/Cursor to suggest the _exact_ correct fix immediately.
By structuring errors with specific CWE codes, OWASP categories, and direct fix suggestions, this format allows AI coding assistants to autonomously identify, explain, and resolve security vulnerabilities with high confidence.
