See branch for full criticality justification and fuzz targets.

golang-jwt (7K+ stars) is the primary JWT library for Go. It handles cryptographic token parsing, signature verification, and claim validation. A parsing bug is a direct authentication bypass across the Go ecosystem.

4 fuzz targets with Dockerfile, build.sh, fuzz_test.go, and project.yaml.
Sanitizers: address, memory. Engine: libfuzzer (Go native fuzz).
All targets verified with go test -fuzz=. -fuzztime=30s.

@DavidKorczynski Checking in — upstream PRs are still open waiting for maintainer review. Is there anything else we can do to move these forward?

I am closing your PRs. We do not have time to review them considering:

I consider this AI slop.

We are happy to accept new projects. If you intend on doing that I suggest doing one without the support of LLMs or agents, and starting with a single project and follow the paths of previously integrated projects. Please avoid spamming upstream projects with random integrations without taking into consideration their processes.
