Hi,

Which version of the JOSE+JWT lib are you referring to?

Looking at the current v5.2 the connection is actually closed:

https://bitbucket.org/connect2id/nimbus-jose-jwt/src/0c9bd531358cd04fdd075550ee89e90a1af4e7ab/src/main/java/com/nimbusds/jose/util/DefaultResourceRetriever.java?at=master&fileviewer=file-view-default#DefaultResourceRetriever.java-107

If you try reading from inputStream past inputStream.close() you will get an IOException that the connection has already been closed:

java.io.IOException: stream is closed
