Repro

I'm trying to take an X509 certificate and expose it in an endpoint as a JWK.

var pemCertificate = new X509Certificate2("./cert/fullchain.pem");
var x509Key = new X509SecurityKey(pemCertificate);

var jwk = JsonWebKeyConverter.ConvertFromX509SecurityKey(x509Key);

Assuming an X509 certificate using ECDSA for encryption located at ./cert/fullchain.pem, example contents:

Expected behavior
jwk.Kty should be "EC".

Actual behavior
jwt.Kty is "RSA".

Possible solution
Seems like ConvertFromX509SecurityKey just sets "RSA" as a constant:

It should investigate the X509SecurityKey to find that out. Investigating x509Key.Certificate.PublicKey.Oid yields an ECC oid, so it's not an issue with the X509SecurityKey object.

I might be off base here, but I can't find a different path to convert an X509 cert with an ECDSA key to JWK.

[brentschmaltz]

@V0ldek you are correct, some of our code assumes the certificate in a X509SecurityKey is RSA, but that is not always true.
