Property Value

Remarks

It is possible for tokens to contain the public key needed to check the signature. For example, X509Data can be hydrated into an X509Certificate, which can be used to validate the signature. In these cases it is important to validate the SigningKey that was used to validate the signature. This boolean only applies to default signing key validation. If IssuerSigningKeyValidator is set, it will be called regardless of whether this property is true or false. The default is false.
