JWKS verify of Microsoft requires WithInferAlgorithmFromKey

[shyim]

Hey,

I am trying to validate JWT of Microsoft against: https://login.microsoftonline.com/common/discovery/keys

After debugging for a while I came up that the Algorithm could not be detected and turning infering does fix it.

the key looks like this:

Is it safe to turn this option on? and is it a missing feature that this does not work out of the box?

Thanks for this library! :)

ahh it's documented here

jwx/docs/01-jwt.md

Lines 453 to 455 in 5a2062d

	// Replace the above option with the following option if you know your key
	// does not have an "alg"/ field (which is apparently the case for Azure tokens)
	// jwt.WithKeySet(keyset, jws.WithInferAlgorithmFromKey(true)),
