After upgrading the code base from ASP 5 beta 7 to RC1-final, I started getting this exception from JwtBearer middleware
Unable to cast object of type 'Newtonsoft.Json.Linq.JArray' to type 'System.IConvertible'.
The determining factor that I see so far is the settings. Machine. Authentication If he is true, then I get an exception, otherwise I do not.
What is AutomaticAuthenticate and why do I need to enable it?
app.UseJwtBearerAuthentication(options =>
{
options.AutomaticAuthenticate = true;
}

Root update
Our code base created recurring claims for nbf, exp and iat. This explains why get_Nbf is in the stack trace and complains about "JArray", since each of these values was an array instead of a value.
