Line 98 in 7da6cfc

return json.loads(json.dumps(data))

There is a bug in the code. The json.dumps returns a TypeError: Object of type bytes is not JSON serializable while data instead needs to be decoded data.decode('utf-8') before converting to dictionary.

The correct approach is being used in the id_token.py method.
