.
.SH "NAME"
\fBjose\-jwe\-dec\fR \- Decrypts a JWE using the supplied JWKs
.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
\fBjose jwe dec\fR \-i JWE [\-I CT] \-k JWK [\-p] [\-O PT]
.
.SH "OVERVIEW"
The \fBjose jwe dec\fR command decrypts a JWE using one or more JWK (\fB\-k\fR) or password (\fB\-p\fR)\. Decryption succeeds if any key is able to perform decryption\.
.
.P
If the JWE is a detached JWE, meaning that the ciphertext is stored in binary form external to the JWE itself, the ciphertext can be loaded using the \fB\-I\fR parameter\.
.
.P
Please note that, when specifying the \fB\-O\fR option to output the plaintext, plaintext output begins before ciphertext validation\. Therefore, you must check the return value of the command before using the data\.
