How to fix?

Upgrade Auth0-WCF-Service-JWT to version 1.0.4 or higher.

Overview

Auth0-WCF-Service-JWT is a ServiceAuthorizationManager from WCF that will extract the bearer JWT from Authorization header, validate it and then set the principal to a ClaimsPrincipal.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to JWT Token Exposure. The library leaked a token signature in an error message which would allow an attacker to forge an arbitrary JWT token.
