I am using RijndaelManaged to make a simple encryption/decryption utility. This is working fine, but I am trying to get it integrated with another program which is created in Unix (Oracle). My problem is, for all smaller input string, i am getting the exact same encrypted hex as the Unix code is generation, but for longer strings, half of my encrypted hex is same, but the other half is different:
Unix Output:
012345678901234 - 00984BBED076541E051A239C02D97117
0123456789012345678 - A0ACE158AD8CF70CEAE8F76AA27F62A30EA409ECE2F7FF84F1A9AF50817FC0C4
Windows Output (my code):
012345678901234 - 00984BBED076541E051A239C02D97117 (same as above)
0123456789012345678 - A0ACE158AD8CF70CEAE8F76AA27F62A3D9A1B396A614DA2C1281AA1F48BC3EBB (half exactly same as above)
My Windows code is:
public string Encrypt(byte[] PlainTextBytes, byte[] KeyBytes, string InitialVector)
{
byte[] InitialVectorBytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(InitialVector);
RijndaelManaged SymmetricKey = new RijndaelManaged();
SymmetricKey.Mode = CipherMode.ECB;
SymmetricKey.Padding = PaddingMode.PKCS7;
ICryptoTransform Encryptor = SymmetricKey.CreateEncryptor(KeyBytes, InitialVectorBytes);
MemoryStream MemStream = new MemoryStream();
CryptoStream CryptoStream = new CryptoStream(MemStream, Encryptor, CryptoStreamMode.Write);
CryptoStream.Write(PlainTextBytes, 0, PlainTextBytes.Length);
CryptoStream.FlushFinalBlock();
byte[] CipherTextBytes = MemStream.ToArray();
MemStream.Close();
CryptoStream.Close();
return ByteToHexConversion(CipherTextBytes);
}
Unix (PL/SQL) code:
FUNCTION Encrypt_Card (plain_card_id VARCHAR2)
RETURN RAW AS
num_key_bytes NUMBER := 256/8; -- key length 256 bits (32 bytes)
encrypted_raw RAW (2000); -- stores encrypted binary text

);
RETURN encrypted_raw;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
dbms_output.put_line (plain_card_id || ' - ' || SUBSTR(SQLERRM,1,100) );
RETURN HEXTORAW ('EEEEEE');
The only difference i see is use of PKCS5 and PCKS7. But, .NET doesn't have PCKS5.
What abc said and also you don't seem to have any IV (Initialization Vector) in you PL/SQL code at all.
The fact that the first part are the same has to do with the different modes (ECB and CBC). ECB encrypts each block separately while CBC uses the previous block when encrypting the next one.
What happens here is that since you use CBC and do not set an IV the IV is all zeroes.
That means that the first block of ECB encryption and CBC encryption will be the same.
(Since A XOR 0 = A).
You need to make sure you use the same encryption mode in both systems and if you decide on CBC make sure you use the same IV.
You use ECB in one case and CBC in the other case.

I try to convert this code to php, but i can't and always i get different result in C# and PHP
Here is my C# code for encrypt and decrypt :
private static readonly byte[] initVectorBytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("1234567812345678");
private const int keysize = 256;
private string pass = "sample";
public static string Encrypt(string plainText, string passPhrase)
{
byte[] plainTextBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(plainText);
PasswordDeriveBytes password = new PasswordDeriveBytes(passPhrase, null);
byte[] keyBytes = password.GetBytes(keysize / 8);
RijndaelManaged symmetricKey = new RijndaelManaged();
symmetricKey.Mode = CipherMode.CBC;
ICryptoTransform encryptor = symmetricKey.CreateEncryptor(keyBytes, initVectorBytes);
MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream();
CryptoStream cryptoStream = new CryptoStream(memoryStream, encryptor, CryptoStreamMode.Write);
cryptoStream.Write(plainTextBytes, 0, plainTextBytes.Length);
cryptoStream.FlushFinalBlock();
byte[] cipherTextBytes = memoryStream.ToArray();
return Convert.ToBase64String(cipherTextBytes);
}
public static string Decrypt(string cipherText, string passPhrase)
{
byte[] cipherTextBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(cipherText);
PasswordDeriveBytes password = new PasswordDeriveBytes(passPhrase, null);
byte[] keyBytes = password.GetBytes(keysize / 8);
RijndaelManaged symmetricKey = new RijndaelManaged();
symmetricKey.Mode = CipherMode.CBC;
ICryptoTransform decryptor = symmetricKey.CreateDecryptor(keyBytes, initVectorBytes);
MemoryStream memoryStream = new MemoryStream(cipherTextBytes);
CryptoStream cryptoStream = new CryptoStream(memoryStream, decryptor, CryptoStreamMode.Read);
byte[] plainTextBytes = new byte[cipherTextBytes.Length];
int decryptedByteCount = cryptoStream.Read(plainTextBytes, 0, plainTextBytes.Length);
return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(plainTextBytes, 0, decryptedByteCount);
}
and this is my php code :
$iv = "1234567812345678";
$out = null;
$key = "sample";
foreach ($iv as $i) { $out .= chr(ord(substr($i,0,1))); }
$res = mcrypt_decrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, $key, $string, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, implode($out));
The keys are not the same. C# is extending the key with PasswordDeriveBytes which is a good method. PHP mcrypt is extending they key with nulls. You need the extended (256-bit) keys to be the same.
The padding is not the same. Unencrypted data needs to be a multiple of the block size (128-bits for AES) and if it isn't always that padding must to be added. C# is not specifying any padding and will expect the data to be a multiple of the block size (128-bits). PHP will by default add null padding which is non-standard and will not work for binary data. You need to add common padding, the standard is PKCS#7 (aka PKCS#5), See PKCS#7 padding. C# supports PKCS#5 but for mcrypt you will have to do it in your code (the mcrypt developers were Bozos and did not provide standard padding).
Rijndael supports multiple bock sizes, it is not clear what the C# default block size is. If what you want is AES (it should be) the block size needs to be 128-bits.
Given that the MSDN documentation does not specify defaults it is best to explicitly set the block size, key size, mode and padding.
Your PHP code will not run on PHP 5.6 as the key size is wrong, it must be 32 bytes.
Said that, on previous versions PHP was padding the key with \0's to reach the correct key length, but in C# you're creating derived bytes (what indeed is correct) to get enough bytes for your key, which ends in different keys used on C# and PHP.
As a proof, create a key with 32 bytes (32 chars) and use directly those 32 bytes as key, both in PHP and C#, in that way it should work.
But at the end you will need a common way to derive the bytes both on PHP and C# to finally have a consistent keying code, an example can be to use a SHA-256 hash to generate the key.
I'm trying to encrypt and decrypt the string using objective c and C#. both are working fine in native code, but when I was try to decrypt string in c# was encrypted in iOS. I get some error.
This was the code I used in the objective c
- (NSData *)AES256EncryptWithKey:(NSString *)key Data: (NSData *) data
{
char keyPtr[kCCKeySizeAES256+1]; // room for terminator (unused)
bzero(keyPtr, sizeof(keyPtr)); // fill with zeroes (for padding)
[key getCString:keyPtr maxLength:sizeof(keyPtr) encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSUInteger dataLength = [data length];
NSData *iv = [#"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz123456" dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
size_t bufferSize = dataLength + kCCBlockSizeAES128;
void *buffer = malloc(bufferSize);
size_t numBytesEncrypted = 0;
CCCryptorStatus cryptStatus = CCCrypt(kCCEncrypt, kCCAlgorithmAES128, kCCOptionPKCS7Padding,
keyPtr, kCCKeySizeAES256,
[iv bytes] /* initialization vector (optional) */,
[data bytes], dataLength, /* input */
buffer, bufferSize, /* output */
&numBytesEncrypted);
if (cryptStatus == kCCSuccess)
{
return [NSData dataWithBytesNoCopy:buffer length:numBytesEncrypted];
}
free(buffer); //free the buffer;
return nil;
}
In want to know how to decrypt in C#, I give blocksize is 256, ivsize to 32 and used "RijndaelManaged()". I'm not using salt & password.
Error: something like "Padding is invalid and cannot be removed."
I tried to set padding too like PKCS7, none, zero but nothing help to decrypt.
can any one help this?
Edit:
My C# code here
public string DecryptString(string encrypted)
{
string result = null;
_encoder = new UTF8Encoding();
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(encrypted) && (encrypted.Length >= 32))
{
var messageBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(encrypted);
using (var rm = new RijndaelManaged())
{
rm.BlockSize = _blockSize;
rm.Key = _encoder.GetBytes("mykey_here");
rm.IV = _encoder.GetBytes("abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz123456"); ;
rm.Padding = PaddingMode.Zeros;
var decryptor = rm.CreateDecryptor(rm.Key, messageBytes.Take(_ivSize).ToArray());
result = _encoder.GetString(Transform(messageBytes.Skip(_ivSize).ToArray(), decryptor));
}
}
return result;
}
protected byte[] Transform(byte[] buffer, ICryptoTransform transform)
{
byte[] result;
using (var stream = new MemoryStream())
using (var cs = new CryptoStream(stream, transform, CryptoStreamMode.Write))
{
cs.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
cs.FlushFinalBlock();
result = stream.ToArray();
}
return result;
}
iOS (Common Crypto) explicitly specifies all encryption parameters, the C# code implicitly determines many parameters. These implicit parameters while simplifying usage are problematic when trying to achieve interoperability.
The C# class RijndaelManaged allows explicitly specifying parameter, change your code to use these, in particular BlockSize (128), KeySize (128), Mode (CipherMode.CBC) and Padding (PaddingMode.PKCS7). The defaults for mode and Padding are OK. See RijndaelManaged Documentation
AES and Rijndael are not the same, in particular AES uses only a block size of 128 bits (16 bytes) and Rijndael allows several block sizes. So one needs to specify a block size of 128 bits for Rijndael. Thus the iv is also 128 bits (16 bytes).
Both support encryption keys of 128, 192 and 256 bytes.
You would probably be better off using the AESManaged class than the RijndaelManaged class. See AesManaged Documentation
The C# side expects the data to be Base64 encoded, the iOS side does not show that encoding operation, make sure that is being done on the iOS side.
Since you are using an iv make sure you are using CBC mode on both sides. In Common Crypto CBC mode is the default, make sure CBC mode is being used on the C# side.
Make sure the C# side is using PKCS#7 or PKCS#5 padding, they are equivalent. It appears that PKCS#7 is the default on the C# side so this should be OK.
It is best to use a key of exactly the size specified and not rely on default padding. In Common Crypto the key size is explicitly specified and null padded if the supplied key is to short. The C# looks like it is determining the key size by the supplied key, in this case the key is 10 bytes so the decryption key probably defaults to 128 bits and the key is being internally padded with nulls. On iOS you are explicitly specifying a key size of 256 bits. This is a mis-match that needs to be fixed. Supply a key that is the exact size specified on the iOS side.
Finally there is the iv, the C# code expects the iv to be prepended to the encrypted data but the iOS code is not providing that. The solution is to change the iOS code to prepend the iv to the encrypted code. Change the iv to be 16 bytes, the AES block size.
Finally provide hex dumps of the test data in, data out, iv and key just prior to and after the encryption call if you need more help.
I have searched online but have not been able to find any solutions to my problem.
I am using previously written methods to encrypt and ecrypt text using the Rijndael class.
I use these functions to encrypt and decrypt usernames and emails for a web application I have been working on.
The encryption/decryption works perfectly, but every once in a while I get this error:
System.Security.Cryptography.CryptographicException: Length of the data to decrypt is invalid.
Currently, I am getting this error with a specific email address and I can't reproduce the error even if I replace some of the letters in the email.
Here are the encryption/decrytpion functions. The IV and Key are defined as read only strings.
static public string Encrypting(string Source)
{
byte[] bytIn = System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(Source);
// create a MemoryStream so that the process can be done without I/O files
System.IO.MemoryStream ms = new System.IO.MemoryStream();
byte[] IVBytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(IV);
byte[] KEYBytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(KEY);
Rijndael rijndael = Rijndael.Create();
rijndael.IV = IVBytes;
rijndael.Key = KEYBytes;
// create Crypto Stream that transforms a stream using the encryption
CryptoStream cs = new CryptoStream(ms, rijndael.CreateEncryptor(), CryptoStreamMode.Write);
// write out encrypted content into MemoryStream
cs.Write(bytIn, 0, bytIn.Length);
cs.FlushFinalBlock();
// get the output and trim the '\0' bytes
byte[] bytOut = ms.GetBuffer();
int i = 0;
for (i = 0; i < bytOut.Length; i++)
if (bytOut[i] == 0)
break;
// convert into Base64 so that the result can be used in xml
return System.Convert.ToBase64String(bytOut, 0, i);
}
static public string Decrypting(string Source)
{
// convert from Base64 to binary
byte[] bytIn = System.Convert.FromBase64String(Source);
// create a MemoryStream with the input
System.IO.MemoryStream ms = new System.IO.MemoryStream(bytIn, 0, bytIn.Length);
byte[] IVBytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(IV);
byte[] KEYBytes = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(KEY);
Rijndael rijndael = Rijndael.Create();
rijndael.IV = IVBytes;
rijndael.Key = KEYBytes;
// create Crypto Stream that transforms a stream using the decryption
CryptoStream cs = new CryptoStream(ms, rijndael.CreateDecryptor(), CryptoStreamMode.Read);
// read out the result from the Crypto Stream
System.IO.StreamReader sr = new System.IO.StreamReader(cs);
return sr.ReadToEnd();
}
FYI - I am very new to cryptography and security.
Can these functions be fixed to avoid special cases that cause the error, or should I scrap these and use the RijndaelManaged class?
Sites I found that use RijndaelManaged:
SeeSharp
TekEye
The issue is almost certainly nothing to do with Rijndael vs. RijndaelManaged (or any other such implementation), but instead because the encrypted data contains a 0x00, and you are incorrectly assuming that the the ciphertext ends at the first 0x00 byte. Since the ciphertext can legitimately contain any byte value you should instead use the stream's Length property to determine the length of the ciphertext.
Eliminate the section you've commented: "get the output and trim the '\0' bytes" and replace the return ... statement with:
return System.Convert.ToBase64String(ms.GetBuffer(), 0, ms.Length);
It should be noted that there are many other issues with your use of cryptography here, e.g. the use of a key generated directly from the ASCII encoding of a string, and the fact you're using a fixed IV both negatively impact security.
The norm for the error is a padding issue. What version of .NET are you using? It is more common to use the AES classes (AES, or Advanced Encryption Standard, which is Rijndael). There are plenty of AES implementations you can find as samples.
If you need some proof AES is Rijndael: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Encryption_Standard
I'm using this function to Encrypt/Decrypt data using AES because it looked simple and clean (googl'ed code)

I'm trying to encrypt the data "test garbage" and thats what i receive back:
YfhyS3GE/liPCaXR0cMHfQ==
However, I tried the same key/phrase on a lot of online-aes encrypt/decrypt and all of them are returning
U2FsdGVkX184u0/vPgA/B0rxofp5Iuqm7hfn4+QZAhg=
Can anyone actually tell me whats wrong?
"3a8114db34d5623d4fd1ee0fb0ga7a73" is hex encoded 128 bit key not a utf8 encoded 256 bit key.
That said simple and clean doesn't necessarily mean correct. For example, the code your using does use a random IV, but doesn't include it in the wire format, you'll never be able to decrypt what you encrypt.
I have a cut and paste style simple code sample that I try to keep up to date and reviewed that uses authenticated encryption using AES:
Modern Examples of Symmetric Authenticated Encryption of a string. C#
First a few issues with your code. Apparently Google doesn't always return the best code on top.
You are getting a key through the UTF8 encoding, which is silly. This produces a very weak key:
// 256-AES key
byte[] keyArray = UTF8Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes("3a8114db34d5623d4fd1ee0fb0ga7a73");
You are using CBC mode but the IV is not (explicitly) set.
Then you compare to some online-aes encrypt/decrypt services and you see a difference. That's because they probably (hopefully) work different.
The main thing here is that your 2 methods are a match and you can round-trip your data. But a good encryption would use a different way to get Key and IV.
I'm not exactly sure why you see a different (smaller) length encrypted data but that's up to a whole list of settings : Key length, Padding mode etc.
Mysql :
SELECT AES_ENCRYPT('Test','pass')
AES_ENCRYPT() and AES_DECRYPT() enable encryption and decryption of data using the official AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) algorithm, previously known as “Rijndael.” Encoding with a 128-bit key length is used, but you can extend it up to 256 bits by modifying the source. We chose 128 bits because it is much faster and it is secure enough for most purposes.

Review the code and comment Idk where made a mistake
What you are doing is following a road of pain. Either decrypt/encrypt on MySQL and use an encrypted connection to the database (if that matters) or encrypt/decrypt on your .NET application, storing the encrypted data in a suitable column.
Mixing AES implementations is prone to mistakes and things can break more easily if you change versions of .NET or MySQL.
Now, to know what exactly is wrong we need to know if the IV is compatible between MySQL and .NET, or else find out what is MySQL's implementation IV and supply that.
And the other potential source of problems is how you have generated the byte arrays (we are not seeing that in your example). You have to consider character encoding issues in generating the arrays if the key is textual.
In the comments of this MySQL docs link there is information about the missing parameters.
After a long hours, I found a solution to this issue.
Couple of FYI's:
MySQL as a default for AES_Encrypt uses 128 bit, with ECB mode, which does not require an IV.
What padding mode they use is not specified, but they do say they pad it. For padding I use PaddingMode.Zeros.
In C#, use AesManaged, not RijndaelManaged since that is not recommended anymore.
If your Key is longer than 128 bits (16 bytes), then use a function below to create the correct key size, since the default MySQL AES algorithm uses 128 bit keys.
Make sure you play around with the correct Encoding and know exactly what type of character encoding you will receive back when translating the bytes to characters.

EDIT:
Since the above is relying on officially non-documented information (though it is working) I would recommend to avoid it and use one of the options described in the answer from Vinko Vrsalovic .
If you run SELECT AES_ENCRYPT('Test','pass')
your are sending the pass over the network unencrypted so any one can unencrypted the data.
The AES_ENCRYPT is used to store data so if the database gets hacked your data is safe, not to transmit data.
if you want data encryption over the net work connect to your mysql server using the ssl socket
