AES encrypt file, decrypt file

Post by gerry »

This library has aes_encrypt, aes_decrypt.
Please add : aes_encrypt_file, aes_decrypt_file.
Thank you in advance.

I need exactly this library

Don't give me the others

Example : aes_encrypt_file(input, output, key), aes_decrypt_file(input, output, key)

Code: Select all

' AES Encryption Implementation by: Chris Brown(2007) aka Zamaster
'
' -Takes plain text and converts it to encrypted ASCII
' -Keys must be 128 bits in size, or 32 hex places/16 char places
' -Set ed in RIJNDAEL_Encrypt to 2 for decryption, 1 for encryption
'
declare function aes_encrypt (Text as string, Key as string) as string
declare function aes_decrypt (Text as string, Key as string) as string

Re: AES encrypt file, decrypt file

Post by deltarho[1859] »

Correct me if I am wrong, but it seems to me that the code uses AES-ECB mode, which should not be used any more. AES-CBC is much better.

With AES-CBC "each block of plaintext is XORed with the previous ciphertext block before being encrypted".

Of course, with the first block we don't have a previous ciphertext block, so we use an Initialization Vector (IV). If not provided, Microsoft uses a null vector. It is better to use a random IV and include that in the header of the output. This means that for each encryption, we use a different IV.

I cannot see an IV being used and why I reckon AES-ECB is being used.

For IV I would use FB's FB_RND_Real (5).

The opening post can be converted from ECB to CBC fairly easily.

Added: I found Zamaster's code, and it uses ECB, mentioned here by tinram. Read Zamaster's post two posts on.

Hi deltarho
What exactly is
FB_RND_Real (5) as in your suggestion: "For IV I would use FB's FB_RND_Real (5)."

Hi dodicat

Check out Randomize, Description section, in the manual. CoderJeff changed the names when he made other generators available a little while back.

BTW folks the padding used in the opening post just adds null bytes to the message. This is OK for ASCII messages, as indicated in the code's header, but not for anything else.

Re: AES encrypt file, decrypt file

I came back to this intending to change from ECB to CBC.

I also wanted to try out a padding scheme called 'Ciphertext stealing' which does not pad the message to a multiple of the block size, so the ciphertext is the same size as the plaintext.

However, before doing that, I wanted to see the code working on a 100MiB file using dodicat's savefile/loadfile add ons.

The surprise was it took over 41 seconds to load the file, from a HDD, encrypt it and save.

I then dropped the file onto my Encrypternet application in home encryption mode; where the receiver is the sender. For those of you not familiar with Encrypternet, it encrypts a file using Windows AES128 in CBC mode, hashes the ciphertext with SHA256 and then signs the hash with EDSA256. We have then authenticated encryption. It also generates its key and that is encrypted using RSA3072. A lot more work is done compared with just encryption.

Encrypternet did the same job in 710ms.

I am on Windows 10 and my CPU has AES-NI (hardware encryption) but pushing 60 times faster than the opening code put me off doing any work on it.

Of course, the opening post is not OS-dependent, but I make no apologies for being only a Windows hobbyist. Image
