Security improvements have been implemented and verified across four main areas:

JWT Token Security:
Protected against algorithm switching attacks by validating and whitelisting algorithms (RS256, RS384, RS512, PS256, PS384, PS512, ES256, ES384, ES512)
Added 2-minute clock skew tolerance for time-based validations
Added "not before" (nbf) claim validation with clock skew tolerance
Required JWT ID (jti) claim to prevent replay attacks
Added strict algorithm validation to prevent downgrade attacks
Session Management Security:
Implemented cryptographically secure random cookie names to prevent targeting
Added automatic session ID rotation after successful login to prevent session fixation
Enforced 24-hour absolute session timeout
Added strict encryption key length validation (minimum 32 bytes)
Added comprehensive session validation including timeout checks
Implemented session pooling for secure resource management
Added secure session cleanup on expiration
Configuration and URL Security:
Enforced HTTPS for all provider URLs and external endpoints
Added minimum rate limit (10 req/sec) to prevent DOS attacks
Added strict validation for excluded URLs:
Must start with "/"
No path traversal (..)
No wildcards (*)
Made ForceHTTPS true by default for secure cookies
Added validation for secure redirect URIs
Added validation for all OIDC endpoints (must be HTTPS)
Added secure defaults in configuration
Test Coverage:
Added comprehensive test cases verifying all security validations
Added test cases for HTTPS enforcement on all endpoints
Added test cases for minimum rate limits
Added test cases for secure session management
Added test cases for token validation with clock skew
Added test cases for secure configuration defaults
All security improvements have been verified through passing test cases, protecting against:

Session fixation attacks
Token replay attacks
Algorithm switching attacks
Path traversal attacks
Session hijacking
Timing attacks
DOS attacks
Man-in-the-middle attacks through enforced HTTPS
