I have a token in String format such as:
eyJhbGciOiJSU0EtT0FFUCIsImVuYyI6IkExMjhHQ00ifQ.K52jFwAQJH-DxMhtaq7sg5tMuot_mT5dm1DR_01wj6ZUQQhJFO02vPI44W5nDjC5C_v4pW1UiJa3cwb5y2Rd9kSvb0ZxAqGX9c4Z4zouRU57729ML3V05UArUhck9ZvssfkDW1VclingL8LfagRUs2z95UkwhiZyaKpmrgqpKX8azQFGNLBvEjXnxxoDFZIYwHOno290HOpig3aUsDxhsioweiXbeLXxLeRsivaLwUWRUZfHRC_HGAo8KSF4gQZmeJtRgai5mz6qgbVkg7jPQyZFtM5_ul0UKHE2y0AtWm8IzDE_rbAV14OCRZJ6n38X5urVFFE5sdphdGsNlA.gjI_RIFWZXJwaO9R.oaE5a-z0N1MW9FBkhKeKeFa5e7hxVXOuANZsNmBYYT8G_xlXkMD0nz4fIaGtuWd3t9Xp-kufvvfD-xOnAs2SBX_Y1kYGPto4mibBjIrXQEjDsKyKwndxzrutN9csmFwqWhx1sLHMpJkgsnfLTi9yWBPKH5Krx23IhoDGoSfqOquuhxn0y0WkuqH1R3z-fluUs6sxx9qx6NFVS1NRQ-LVn9sWT5yx8m9AQ_ng8MBWz2BfBTV0tjliV74ogNDikNXTAkD9rsWFV0IX4IpA.sOLijuVySaKI-FYUaBywpg
Now I want to decrypt this String through some java library and ultimately want to access the payload. Anyone done this so far ?
The assertion you shared with us is a JWE serialized in its compact representation. It has 5 parts separated by a dot (.
) which are:

)The header indicates at least the
Key Encryption Algorithm
(alg
) used to encrypt the content encryption key (CEK)Content Encryption Algorithm
(enc
) used in conjunction with the CEK to encrypt the content.In your case, The alg
is RSA-OAEP
and the enc
is A128GCM
.
According to these algorithm, you should have a RSA private key to decrypt the CEK and then use it to decrypt the cyphertext.
https://jwt.io mentioned in the accepted answer will not be useful as it does not support JWE, but JWS. The result shown with a JWE input will not give you the decrypted payload. However, the https://connect2id.com/products/nimbus-jose-jwt resource will help you as it seems that the algorithms used for your token are supported.
