go-jose v2.2.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2018-11-30 // over 5 years ago
  • Bug Fixes

    • Check that key size when matches cipher for DIRECT encryption mode (issue #204, fix in #205)
    • 🛠 Fix auth tag length for A192CBC-HS384, A256CBC-HS512 to match spec (issue #206, fix in #207)

    Note : We bumped the minor version in this release because the changes in #207 fixes a compatibility issue with the implementations of the A192CBC-HS384 and A256CBC-HS512 ciphers. The library didn't correctly follow the JOSE specification (RFC 7518) when encrypting and as a result ciphertexts produced with square/go-jose were incompatible with other JOSE implementations. Ciphertexts produced from other libraries with those ciphers would still decrypt correctly. If you were encrypting with A192CBC-HS384 and A256CBC-HS512 using old versions of this library there might be compatibility concerns when upgrading.
