The Resource Server Role
In OAuth2, a resource server is the API that holds protected data. It does not log users in or issue tokens. Its only job at request time is to validate the access token that an authorization server already issued, then authorize the call.
- Tokens are usually JWTs (JSON Web Tokens) signed by the authorization server.
- Validation is stateless: the resource server verifies the signature and claims without calling a database.
- Spring Security ships a dedicated
oauth2ResourceServerDSL for exactly this.
In this lesson you will validate JWTs, verify the iss and aud claims, and turn claims into Spring authorities.
Anatomy of a JWT
A JWT has three Base64URL parts separated by dots: header.payload.signature. The payload carries claims the resource server inspects:
iss— issuer, the URL of the authorization server.sub— subject, the user or client id.aud— audience, who the token is meant for.exp/nbf/iat— expiry, not-before, issued-at timestamps.scopeorscp— granted OAuth2 scopes.
The example below shows how a decoded payload looks as plain JSON. Validating means: signature is genuine AND these claims are acceptable.
// A decoded JWT payload (claims) as JSON
{
"iss": "https://issuer.example.com",
"sub": "user-1234",
"aud": ["orders-api"],
"scope": "orders.read orders.write",
"roles": ["ADMIN", "USER"],
"iat": 1735689600,
"nbf": 1735689600,
"exp": 1735693200
}Minimal Resource Server Config
With spring-boot-starter-oauth2-resource-server on the classpath, you enable JWT validation through the security DSL. The jwt() configurer wires up signature verification and standard timestamp checks automatically.
Point Spring at the authorization server's metadata via the issuer URI and it will discover the JWK Set endpoint (the public keys) on its own.
@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
public class SecurityConfig {
@Bean
SecurityFilterChain filterChain(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
http
.authorizeHttpRequests(auth -> auth
.requestMatchers("/actuator/health").permitAll()
.anyRequest().authenticated())
.oauth2ResourceServer(oauth2 -> oauth2
.jwt(Customizer.withDefaults()));
return http.build();
}
}Configuring the Issuer URI
The cleanest way to set things up is the issuer-uri property. On startup Spring fetches {issuer}/.well-known/openid-configuration (or the OAuth2 equivalent), reads the jwks_uri, and builds a JwtDecoder that caches and rotates signing keys.
It also installs an issuer validator: every token's iss claim must equal this value, or the token is rejected.
# application.yml
spring:
security:
oauth2:
resourceserver:
jwt:
issuer-uri: https://issuer.example.com
# Optional: pin the audience(s) accepted by this API
audiences:
- orders-apiHow the JwtDecoder Validates
When issuer-uri is set, Spring builds a NimbusJwtDecoder backed by the discovered JWK Set. Each incoming token goes through:
- Signature check — the token's
kidselects a public key from the JWK Set; the signature must verify. - Timestamp check —
expmust be in the future,nbfin the past (with small clock skew). - Issuer check —
issmust match the configured issuer.
You can build the same decoder manually when you need to attach extra validators.
@Bean
JwtDecoder jwtDecoder() {
String issuer = "https://issuer.example.com";
NimbusJwtDecoder decoder =
JwtDecoders.fromIssuerLocation(issuer);
OAuth2TokenValidator<Jwt> withIssuer =
JwtValidators.createDefaultWithIssuer(issuer);
decoder.setJwtValidator(withIssuer);
return decoder;
}Verifying the Audience Claim
The default validators check timestamps and issuer, but not the audience. Skipping the aud check is a real risk: a token minted for another API on the same issuer would otherwise be accepted here. This is the classic token confusion attack.
Write a custom OAuth2TokenValidator<Jwt> that asserts your API's identifier is present in the aud list, and chain it with the defaults.
public class AudienceValidator
implements OAuth2TokenValidator<Jwt> {
private final String audience;
public AudienceValidator(String audience) {
this.audience = audience;
}
@Override
public OAuth2TokenValidatorResult validate(Jwt jwt) {
if (jwt.getAudience().contains(audience)) {
return OAuth2TokenValidatorResult.success();
}
OAuth2Error error = new OAuth2Error(
OAuth2ErrorCodes.INVALID_TOKEN,
"Required audience is missing", null);
return OAuth2TokenValidatorResult.failure(error);
}
}Chaining Validators in the Decoder
Combine the audience validator with the default-with-issuer chain using DelegatingOAuth2TokenValidator. Order does not matter for correctness — all validators must pass — but keep signature and timestamp checks (handled internally) plus issuer and audience together.
This decoder bean overrides the auto-configured one while still reusing the discovered JWK keys.
@Bean
JwtDecoder jwtDecoder(
@Value("${spring.security.oauth2.resourceserver.jwt.issuer-uri}") String issuer,
@Value("${api.audience}") String audience) {
NimbusJwtDecoder decoder =
JwtDecoders.fromIssuerLocation(issuer);
OAuth2TokenValidator<Jwt> validator =
new DelegatingOAuth2TokenValidator<>(
JwtValidators.createDefaultWithIssuer(issuer),
new AudienceValidator(audience));
decoder.setJwtValidator(validator);
return decoder;
}From Scopes to Authorities
By default Spring maps the scope (or scp) claim to authorities, prefixing each with SCOPE_. So scope: "orders.read" becomes the authority SCOPE_orders.read, which you can require in the DSL or with method security.
hasAuthority("SCOPE_orders.read")inauthorizeHttpRequests.@PreAuthorize("hasAuthority('SCOPE_orders.write')")on a method.
This default works out of the box, no converter needed.
http.authorizeHttpRequests(auth -> auth
.requestMatchers(HttpMethod.GET, "/orders/**")
.hasAuthority("SCOPE_orders.read")
.requestMatchers(HttpMethod.POST, "/orders/**")
.hasAuthority("SCOPE_orders.write")
.anyRequest().authenticated());Extracting Roles from a Custom Claim
Many identity providers (Keycloak, Auth0, Entra ID) put roles in a non-standard claim such as roles or realm_access.roles, not in scope. To map these, supply a JwtAuthenticationConverter with a custom JwtGrantedAuthoritiesConverter-like function.
Here we read a top-level roles array and emit ROLE_-prefixed authorities so hasRole(...) works.
@Bean
JwtAuthenticationConverter jwtAuthConverter() {
JwtAuthenticationConverter converter =
new JwtAuthenticationConverter();
converter.setJwtGrantedAuthoritiesConverter(jwt -> {
List<String> roles =
jwt.getClaimAsStringList("roles");
if (roles == null) return List.of();
return roles.stream()
.map(r -> new SimpleGrantedAuthority("ROLE_" + r))
.collect(Collectors.toList());
});
return converter;
}Wiring the Converter and Reading Claims
Register the converter on the resource server DSL so it is used to build the Authentication. Once wired, your controllers can inject the validated Jwt and read any claim directly — it is already verified by the time the handler runs.
@Configuration
@EnableWebSecurity
public class SecurityConfig {
@Bean
SecurityFilterChain chain(HttpSecurity http,
JwtAuthenticationConverter converter) throws Exception {
http.oauth2ResourceServer(oauth2 -> oauth2
.jwt(jwt -> jwt.jwtAuthenticationConverter(converter)));
return http.build();
}
}
@RestController
class MeController {
@GetMapping("/me")
Map<String, Object> me(@AuthenticationPrincipal Jwt jwt) {
return Map.of(
"sub", jwt.getSubject(),
"issuer", jwt.getIssuer().toString(),
"roles", jwt.getClaimAsStringList("roles"));
}
}Building Authorities in Plain Java
The role-mapping logic is just data transformation — the same logic the converter runs, minus the framework. The snippet below is a standalone program that demonstrates turning a claim value into ROLE_-prefixed and SCOPE_-prefixed authorities, exactly mirroring Spring's defaults.
import java.util.*;
import java.util.stream.*;
public class AuthorityMapping {
static List<String> fromRoles(List<String> roles) {
return roles.stream()
.map(r -> "ROLE_" + r)
.collect(Collectors.toList());
}
static List<String> fromScope(String scope) {
return Arrays.stream(scope.split(" "))
.filter(s -> !s.isBlank())
.map(s -> "SCOPE_" + s)
.collect(Collectors.toList());
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
List<String> authorities = new ArrayList<>();
authorities.addAll(fromRoles(List.of("ADMIN", "USER")));
authorities.addAll(fromScope("orders.read orders.write"));
System.out.println(authorities);
}
}Quick Check
Your resource server uses issuer-uri, so signature, expiry, and issuer are validated automatically. A pentester sends a valid, unexpired token that was issued by the same authorization server but minted for a different API. Your endpoint accepts it. What is the fix?
Recap
You configured a Spring Boot 4 resource server to validate JWT access tokens end to end:
- Issuer URI auto-discovers the JWK Set and installs signature, timestamp, and issuer validation.
- Audience must be checked explicitly with a custom
OAuth2TokenValidator<Jwt>to block token confusion — defaults do not do this. - Validators chain via
DelegatingOAuth2TokenValidatorso issuer + audience + defaults all apply. - Authorities come from the
scopeclaim asSCOPE_*by default; aJwtAuthenticationConvertermaps custom claims likerolestoROLE_*. - Controllers read verified claims via
@AuthenticationPrincipal Jwt.
Validate the signature, then never trust a claim you have not explicitly verified.
