To validate a JWT, your application needs to: Check that the JWT is well formed. Check the signature. Check the standard claims.

the login process seems secure . But you didn’t check the potential existing user in the signup form, or existing email address. Unless this is managed by the underlying User schema. And you should require a minimal password complexity.
Read moreHow does JWT authentication work?
In short, JWTs are used as a secure way to authenticate users and share information. Typically, a private key, or secret, is used by the issuer to sign the JWT. The receiver of the JWT will verify the signature to ensure that the token hasn’t been altered after it was signed by the issuer.
Read moreWhat is JWT token and how it works?
JWT, or JSON Web Token, is an open standard used to share security information between two parties — a client and a server . Each JWT contains encoded JSON objects, including a set of claims. JWTs are signed using a cryptographic algorithm to ensure that the claims cannot be altered after the token is issued.
Read moreWhy is JWT token not good?
Although JWT does eliminate the database lookup, it introduces security issues and other complexities while doing so . Security is binary—either it’s secure or it’s not. Thus making it dangerous to use JWT for user sessions.
