Uncaught JsonException: Malformed UTF-8 characters, possibly incorrectly encoded

[konradstrek]

Hi! I'm using PHP 7.4.3 and trying to verify identity token. The response I get: Uncaught JsonException: Malformed UTF-8 characters, possibly incorrectly encoded in /home/x/domains/domain.com/public_html/apple/lcobucci/jwt/src/Parsing/Decoder.php:50. Changing to older PHP version helps, but is there any solution to make it working on >7.4.3? Thanks

Hey @konradstrek.

Thank you for opening this issue.

To be honest I haven't tested it on version 7.4.3. I will take a look at the issue you posted and prepare a fix in the soon.

Thanks.

@konradstrek which version of the library did you use?

I tried to reproduce that issue on php 7.4.14 using the newest version of the library (1.2.0) and there was no error. When I used the older lib version (1.1.0) then I got an error but not JSON encoding one.

I suggest using the newest lib version. Ideally, clone clean repo or make sure that vendor dir and composer.lock file are removed before installing composer dependencies.
