When I run in primary OS (Windows), no issue. But running in VM shows this error

I am also facing this issue, that too with the portswigger lab. I am on Kali Linux

I think it's because of the proxy. I was running burpsuite in my primary os and not in kali. May be that is the reason and it also shown in the error "ProxyError".

Do I need to run burp in background? How is that related to this tool?

[z3dc0ps]

I run it without burp and get errors in windows too. So, I think it need burpsuite.

jwt_tool is intended to be used with a proxy tool like Burp as it cannot show everything relating to the requests and responses, so findings often need to be reviewed by inspecting the HTTP traffic (e.g. in Burp). If you don't want to use a proxy tool you can specify the "no proxy" option in the tool.

Does jwt_tool assume that it will find a proxy (Burp / ZAP) on 127.0.0.1:8080 by default?
