+
+**BREAKING CHANGE** JWT Middleware Removed from Core use [labstack/echo-jwt](https://github.com/labstack/echo-jwt) instead
+
+The JWT middleware has been **removed from Echo core** due to another security vulnerability, [CVE-2024-51744](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-51744). For more details, refer to issue [#2699](https://github.com/labstack/echo/issues/2699). A drop-in replacement is available in the [labstack/echo-jwt](https://github.com/labstack/echo-jwt) repository.
+
+**Important**: Direct assignments like `token := c.Get("user").(*jwt.Token)` will now cause a panic due to an invalid cast. Update your code accordingly. Replace the current imports from `"github.com/golang-jwt/jwt"` in your handlers to the new middleware version using `"github.com/golang-jwt/jwt/v5"`.
+
+
+Background: 
+
+The version of `golang-jwt/jwt` (v3.2.2) previously used in Echo core has been in an unmaintained state for some time. This is not the first vulnerability affecting this library; earlier issues were addressed in [PR #1946](https://github.com/labstack/echo/pull/1946).
+JWT middleware was marked as deprecated in Echo core as of [v4.10.0](https://github.com/labstack/echo/releases/tag/v4.10.0) on 2022-12-27. If you did not notice that, consider leveraging tools like [Staticcheck](https://staticcheck.dev/) to catch such deprecations earlier in you dev/CI flow.  For bonus points - check out [gosec](https://github.com/securego/gosec).
+
+We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by this change. While we strive to maintain backward compatibility within Echo core, recurring security issues with third-party dependencies have forced this decision.
