+> [!WARNING] JWK in key confirmation is NOT supported
+
+This package depends on [`veraison/go-cose`](https://github.com/veraison/go-cose) for marshaling and unmarshaling the `cnf` claim. Since `go-cose` supports only COSE/CBOR serialization ([COSE Key](https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc9052#section-7)), using `FromJSON` and `ToJSON` with JWK key confirmation may produce unexpected results.
