Hard DevTools Tamper the request

Forged role token (Base64)

40 pts (G) ID: tamper-jwt-role
The token cookie is Base64-encoded JSON holding a role (looks like a JWT payload, but has no signature - which is exactly why it is forgeable). Decode it, change the role to 'admin' and re-encode.

The target opens in a new tab. That is where you work - in DevTools (F12).

Open target

The flag looks like JSA{...}. Paste the whole thing.

Note: a hint halves the points, and revealing the solution means 0 points for this challenge (it still counts as solved).
