This PR fixes two issues we faced with YubiKeys.
First issue:
kty
andcrv
can either beint
ortstr
according to the RFC, where the string version should be one of the constants (likeOKP
orEd25519
). However, this library parses only the int version. This PR adds support for the string constants related to elliptic curves. There are likely more places where string constants are applicable, but the provided fixes are at least enough to get YubiKey working. Example input of such a key:{1: 'OKP', 3: -8, -1: 'Ed25519'}
.Second issue: some keys generate broken keys during registration (two errors: map length is wrong, and public key component
x
is bytearray instead of bytestring). See this issue for a more in-depth discussion. While this is technically not a fault in this library, this PR adds a workaround that detects and fixes those broken keys. Other webauthn libraries use such workarounds as well.
