My 2 cents:

There is an openSSL example to verify a jwt:

https://gist.github.com/rolandyoung/176dd310a6948e094be6

 

By using jose4j

        // be sure you do not have any EOL at the end of the token

String accesToken = …;

accesToken = accesToken.replaceAll("\r\n", "");

accesToken = accesToken.replaceAll("\n", "");

 

JsonWebSignature jws = new JsonWebSignature();

jws.setCompactSerialization(accesToken);

jws.setKey(publicKey);

boolean signatureVerified = jws.verifySignature();

To get a PublicKey : if you put the content of the realm public you get from keycloak admin

         public PublicKey getPublicKey(String fileName) {

File f = new File(fileName);

try (FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(f);

DataInputStream dis = new DataInputStream(fis);) {

               byte[] keyBytes = new byte[(int) f.length()];

               dis.readFully(keyBytes);

               dis.close();

               // convert to der format

               String pem = new String(keyBytes);

               pem = pem.replaceAll("-----BEGIN (.*)-----", "");

               pem = pem.replaceAll("-----END (.*)----", "");

               pem = pem.replaceAll("\r\n", "");

               pem = pem.replaceAll("\n", "");

                byte[] der = Base64.getDecoder().decode(pem); // java 8

               X509EncodedKeySpec spec = new X509EncodedKeySpec(der);

               KeyFactory kf = KeyFactory.getInstance(RSA);

               return kf.generatePublic(spec);

 

        } catch (IOException | InvalidKeySpecException | NoSuchAlgorithmException e) {

                throw new RuntimeException("Failed to load public key from file '" + fileName + "'", e);

        }

        }

 

With Java 8, it is quite simple too

               String[]  tokenParts  = accessToken.split("\\.");

// detect algo from tokenParts[0] or put "SHA256withRSA” (for “RS256”)

                    String jwtSignAlgo = "SHA256withRSA";

         String jwtInputString = tokenParts[0] + “.” + tokenParts[1];

         String jwtDecodedSign = new String(Base64.getUrlDecoder().decode(tokenParts[2]);

         Signature verifier = Signature.getInstance(jwtSignAlgo);

         verifier.initVerify(publicKey);

         verifier.update(jwtInputString.getBytes("UTF-8"));

         boolean signatureVerified = verifier.verify(jwtDecodedSign);

Figured it out, kinda. I have to use the Realm public key, and at least
in jwt.io it has to begin with "-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----" and end with
"-----END PUBLIC KEY-----" -- these can't be omitted.

If I try using the Realm certificate, it won't work, however, whether or
not I use "-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----"/"-----END CERTIFICATE-----".

If I use the validator at http://kjur.github.io/jsjws/tool_jwt.html and
select "default X509 Certificate (RSA z4) it tells me "Error: malformed
X.509 certificate PEM (code:003)"

I can use the Realm public key for validating the JWT, but shouldn't the
certificate work as well?

 

The certificate is only used by SAML, so no you can't verify the JWT with the certificate only the public key.
