JWT Analyzer
alg:none, expired, sensitive data. Part of AuditCore's automated security audit pipeline — runs on every scan in the Pro tier and above, with findings normalized into a single severity-rated table.
What is JWT Analyzer?
JWT Analyzer runs in the Authentication Tests phase of every AuditCore scan that includes it. Replay captured traffic across roles to find broken object-level / function-level authorization, and audit JWT, OAuth, session, cookie and SSL/TLS posture.
Out of the box it covers: alg:none, expired, sensitive data. Findings are normalized into AuditCore's vulnerability model so they appear next to results from every other scanner — no separate tabs, no tool-specific jargon, one CVSS-rated table.
If you've ever wondered which scanners actually run when you click "Start scan" on AuditCore, this is one of them. The full pipeline is documented per phase, and you can see exactly which tools fired on any given scan from the live terminal feed.
What it tests
- alg:none, expired, sensitive data
- Runs automatically as part of any Pro-tier scan and above
- Findings appear in the standard AuditCore severity table (Critical / High / Medium / Low / Info)
- Results are bundled into the PDF report and exposed via the API

FAQ
What does JWT Analyzer test for?
alg:none, expired, sensitive data
Which AuditCore plan includes JWT Analyzer?
Available from the Pro plan ($299) and up. Higher tiers also include this scanner — license once, rescan unlimited.
Is JWT Analyzer safe to run on production?
Yes — JWT Analyzer runs in the Authentication Tests phase, which is non-intrusive. It only reads data the target already exposes (DNS, HTTP responses, public files, headers).
Where does JWT Analyzer run in the AuditCore scan pipeline?
Phase 3/5 — Authentication Tests. Replay captured traffic across roles to find broken object-level / function-level authorization, and audit JWT, OAuth, session, cookie and SSL/TLS posture.
Can I rerun JWT Analyzer without paying again?
Yes. AuditCore uses a per-domain license model — once you've purchased a tier for a domain, every rescan (manual or scheduled) is included. No metered usage.
