I am trying to encode in nodejs and decryption for the same in nodejs works well. But when I try to do the decryption in Java using the same IV and secret, it doesn't behave as expected.
Here is the code snippet:
Encryption in nodeJs:
var crypto = require('crypto'),
algorithm = 'aes-256-ctr',
_ = require('lodash'),
secret = 'd6F3231q7d1942874322a#123nab#392';
function encrypt(text, secret) {
var iv = crypto.randomBytes(16);
console.log(iv);
var cipher = crypto.createCipheriv(algorithm, new Buffer(secret),
iv);
var encrypted = cipher.update(text);
encrypted = Buffer.concat([encrypted, cipher.final()]);
return iv.toString('hex') + ':' + encrypted.toString('hex');
}
var encrypted = encrypt("8123497494", secret);
console.log(encrypted);
And the output is:
<Buffer 94 fa a4 f4 a1 3c bf f6 d7 90 18 3f 3b db 3f b9>
94faa4f4a13cbff6d790183f3bdb3fb9:fae8b07a135e084eb91e
Code Snippet for decryption in JAVA:
public class Test {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
String s =
"94faa4f4a13cbff6d790183f3bdb3fb9:fae8b07a135e084eb91e";
String seed = "d6F3231q7d1942874322a#123nab#392";
decrypt(s, seed);
}
private static void decrypt(String s, String seed)
throws NoSuchAlgorithmException, NoSuchPaddingException, UnsupportedEncodingException, InvalidKeyException,
InvalidAlgorithmParameterException, IllegalBlockSizeException, BadPaddingException {
String parts[] = s.split(":");
String ivString = parts[0];
String encodedString = parts[1];
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES/CTR/NoPadding");
byte[] secretBytes = seed.getBytes("UTF-8");
IvParameterSpec ivSpec = new IvParameterSpec(hexStringToByteArray(ivString));
/*Removed after the accepted answer
MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
byte[] thedigest = md.digest(secretBytes);*/
SecretKeySpec skey = new SecretKeySpec(thedigest, "AES");
cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, skey, ivSpec);
byte[] output = cipher.doFinal(hexStringToByteArray(encodedString));
System.out.println(new String(output));
}
}
Output: �s˸8ƍ�
I am getting some junk value in the response. Tried a lot of options, but none of them seem to be working. Any lead/help is appreciated.
In your JS code, you're using the 32-character string d6F3231q7d19428743234#123nab#234 directly as the AES key, with each ASCII character directly mapped to a single key byte.
In the Java code, you're instead first hashing the same string with MD5, and then using the MD5 output as the AES key. It's no wonder that they won't match.
What you probably should be doing, in both cases, is either:
randomly generating a string of 32 bytes (most of which won't be printable ASCII characters) and using it as the key; or
using a key derivation function (KDF) to take an arbitrary input string and turn it into a pseudorandom AES key.
In the latter case, if the input string is likely to have less than 256 bits of entropy (e.g. if it's a user-chosen password, most of which only have a few dozen bits of entropy at best), then you should make sure to use a KDF that implements key stretching to slow down brute force guessing attacks.
Ps. To address the comments below, MD5 outputs a 16-byte digest, which will yield an AES-128 key when used as an AES SecretKeySpec. To use AES-256 in Java, you will need to provide a 32-byte key. If trying to use a 32-byte AES key in Java throws an InvalidKeyException, you are probably using an old version of Java with a limited crypto policy that does not allow encryption keys longer than 128 bits. As described this answer to the linked question, you will either need to upgrade to Java 8 update 161 or later, or obtain and install an unlimited crypto policy file for your Java version.
In the Java code you are taking the MD5 hash of secret before using it as a key:
MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
byte[] thedigest = md.digest(secretBytes);
SecretKeySpec skey = new SecretKeySpec(thedigest, "AES");
Whereas, in your NodeJS code, you don't do this anywhere. So you're using two different keys when encrypting and decrypting.
Don't copy and paste code without understanding it. Especially crypto code.
Faced with the same task (but with 128, it easy to adapt for 256), here is working Java/NodeJs code with comments.
It's additionally wrapped to Base64 to readability, but it's easy to remove if you would like.

//encrypt
byte[] cipherText = encryptionCipher.doFinal(valueToEncrypt.getBytes());
ByteBuffer byteBuffer = ByteBuffer.allocate(ivLength + cipherText.length);
//storing IV in first part of whole message

//concat it to result message
byte[] cipherMessage = byteBuffer.array();
//and encrypt to base64 to get readable value
encrypted = new String(Base64.getEncoder().encode(cipherMessage));
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new IllegalStateException(e);
}
//END OF ENCODE CODE
log("encrypted and saved as Base64 : "+encrypted);
///DECRYPT CODE :
try {
//decoding from base64

//decrypt
byte[] finalCipherText = decryptionCipher.doFinal(cipherText);
//converting to string
String finalDecryptedValue = new String(finalCipherText);
decrypted = finalDecryptedValue;
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new IllegalStateException(e);
}
log("decrypted from Base64->aes128 : "+decrypted);
//END OF DECRYPT CODE
}
}
It could be easy be tested by online java compilers (this example prepared on https://www.jdoodle.com/online-java-compiler).
NodeJs decrypt side :
const crypto = require('crypto');
const ivLength = 16;
const algorithm = 'aes-128-ctr';
const encrypt = (value, key) => {
//not implemented, but it could be done easy if you will see to decrypt
return value;
};
function decrypt(value, key) {
//from base64 to byteArray
let decodedAsBase64Value = Buffer.from(value, 'base64');
let decodedAsBase64Key = Buffer.from(key);
//get IV from message
let ivArr = decodedAsBase64Value.slice(0, ivLength);
//get crypted message from second part of message
let cipherTextArr = decodedAsBase64Value.slice(ivLength, decodedAsBase64Value.length);
let cipher = crypto.createDecipheriv(algorithm, decodedAsBase64Key, ivArr);
//decrypted value
let decrypted = cipher.update(cipherTextArr, 'binary', 'utf8');
decrypted += cipher.final('utf8');
return decrypted;
}

I'm making a program which works with messages cryptography by Socket. But, when in my messages has a "o", or "b", or "c" and another letters, i receives that Exception in the decrypto moment.
Exception in thread "main" javax.crypto.BadPaddingException: Given final block not properly padded. Such issues can arise if a bad key is used during decryption.

Yep, my message arrives completed with all the characters, so i don't think in some character was lost in the trasmission. So i don't really know what's the problem, because i've tried to changes a lot of things, but i continued recieving this Exception.
Decrypt class:
package teste1;
import javax.crypto.Cipher;
import javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec;
import javax.crypto.spec.IvParameterSpec;
public class Decrypt{
String IV = "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA";
public String decrypt(String str, String keys) throws Exception{
Cipher decrypt = Cipher.getInstance("AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding", "SunJCE");
SecretKeySpec key = new SecretKeySpec(keys.getBytes("UTF-8"), "AES");
decrypt.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, key, new IvParameterSpec(IV.getBytes("UTF-8")));
return new String(decrypt.doFinal(str.getBytes()),"UTF-8");
}
}
If wants the encrypt class too:
package teste1;
import javax.crypto.Cipher;
import javax.crypto.spec.IvParameterSpec;
import javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec;
public class Encrypt {
String IV = "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA";
public byte[] encrypt(String menE, String keys) throws Exception {
Cipher encrypt = Cipher.getInstance("AES/EBC/PKCS5Padding", "SunJCE");
SecretKeySpec key = new SecretKeySpec(keys.getBytes("UTF-8"), "AES");
encrypt.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, key, new IvParameterSpec(IV.getBytes("UTF-8")));
return encrypt.doFinal(menE.getBytes());
}
}
That happens because Strings change your bytes, you should really use Base64
if strings are a must.
If you want to test that run this code:
byte[] aByte = {-45};
System.out.println(Arrays.toString(new String(aByte, StandardCharsets.UTF_8).getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8)));
It will output: [-17, -65, -67] (which is not -45).
Anyways so a few tips for you:
You cannot encrypt with "ECB" and decrypt with "CBC".
An IV should not be a constant. you should generate a new IV for every message and send it along with the message.
Don't specify "UTF-8" use StandardCharsets.UTF_8 (note if using android: StandardCharsets.UTF-8 is API 19+ so you should have a constant for Charset.forName("UTF-8"))
Here is some example code for how to do it with Base64:
public byte[] encrypt(String message, String key, String iv) throws Exception {
Cipher encrypt = Cipher.getInstance("AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding", "SunJCE");
SecretKeySpec secretKey = new SecretKeySpec(Base64.getDecoder().decode(key), "AES");
encrypt.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, secretKey, new IvParameterSpec(Base64.getDecoder().decode(iv)));
return encrypt.doFinal(/*Get bytes from your message*/message.getBytes(StandardCharsets.UTF_8));
}
public String decrypt(String encryptedMessage, String key, String iv) throws Exception{
Cipher decrypt = Cipher.getInstance("AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding", "SunJCE");
SecretKeySpec secretKey = new SecretKeySpec(Base64.getDecoder().decode(key), "AES");
decrypt.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, secretKey, new IvParameterSpec(Base64.getDecoder().decode(iv)));
return new String(decrypt.doFinal(Base64.getDecoder().decode(encryptedMessage)), StandardCharsets.UTF_8);
}
And run it with
//your message
String message = "Hello World!";
//generate a new AES key. (an AES key is just a random sequence 16 bytes)
SecureRandom random = new SecureRandom();
byte[] aesKey = new byte[16];
random.nextBytes(aesKey);
//generate a new initialization vector (iv) which is also a random sequence of 16 bytes.
byte[] iv = new byte[16];
random.nextBytes(iv);
String aesKeyAsString = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(aesKey);
String ivAsString = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(iv);
//encrypt
byte[] encrypted = encrypt(message, aesKeyAsString, ivAsString);
//enocde your encrypted byte[] to String
String encryptedString = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(encrypted);
//decrypt
String decrypted = decrypt(encryptedString, aesKeyAsString, ivAsString);
//print your results
System.out.println("Encrypted: " + encryptedString + " Decrypted: " + decrypted);
Outputs:
Encrypted: |encrypted string depended on the generated key and iv| Decrypted: Hello World!
You can also use the more efficient way and use byte[] instead of Strings but it's your choice.
In my Java code, I'm trying to encrypt a String using RSA, with a public key. The String is a Base64 encoded String that represents an Image (Image was converted to String). It will be decrypted using a private key.
During the Encryption, I first got an exception "javax.crypto.IllegalBlockSizeException: Data must not be longer than 190 bytes". So, I processed the String (plaintext) in blocks of 189 which then resolved it.
During the Decryption, I got another exception "javax.crypto.IllegalBlockSizeException: Data must not be longer than 256 bytes". So, I processed the byte[] (ciphertext), by converting it to a String first, in blocks of 256 which then resolved it as well.
Again, during my decryption process, I end up getting a "javax.crypto.BadPaddingException: Decryption error" Exception, which I have been unable to resolve.
Upon the recommendation of experts on this site, I used "OAEPWithSHA-256AndMGF1Padding". I even tried using No Padding, after other padding methods, to see if the Exception would go away, but it did not work. What have I done wrong?
I was able to identify that the Exception was thrown at the line - decryptedImagePartial = t.rsaDecrypt(cipherTextTrimmed.getBytes(), privateKey);
- which is in the decryption portion of the main method.
Please bear with me if my coding practices are poor. I'd really prefer to just find out the error behind the exception for now.

Also, I noticed a few other examples where KeyFactory was used to generate the keys. Could anyone also tell me the difference between using KeyFactory and what I have used?
You can not cut the ciphertext into arbitrary chunks!
Since you specifically asked for plain RSA without symmetric algorithms involved (which I strongly recommend against!), this is what you need to do:
Find out the maximum payload size for your RSA configuration.
Split your plaintext into chunks of this size
Encrypt each chunk individually and do not simply concatenate them and discard chunk boundaries!
During decryption:
Pass each ciphertext chunk to the decrypt function using the original size it has after encryption. Do not append any data and do not create "substrings".
Concatenate the resulting plaintexts.
Ideally you should use a hybrid encryption scheme:
generate an encryption key (encKey)
encrypt your image using a symmetric algorithm with encKey
encrypt encKey using pubKey with RSA
Symmetric ciphers can be used in different modes of operation, that avoid such length limitations.
First of all, it makes absolutely no sense to first encode the image to base 64. The input of modern ciphers consist of bytes, and images are already bytes. You may want to base 64 encode the ciphertext if you want to store that a string.
The input block size is indeed 190 bytes. You can see a table for RSA / OAEP here (don't forget to upvote!). I'm not sure why you would want to use 189 in that case; my code is however generalized. The output block size is simply the key size for RSA as it is explicitly converted to the key size in bytes (even if it could be smaller).
During decryption you convert the ciphertext to a string. However, string decoding in Java is lossy; if the decoder finds a byte that doesn't represent a character then it is dropped silently. So this won't (always work), resulting for instance in a BadPaddingException. That's OK though, we can keep to binary ciphertext.
So without further ado, some code for you to look at. Note the expansion of the ciphertext with the 66 bytes per block and the poor performance of - mainly - the decryption. Using AES with RSA in a hybrid cryptosystem is highly recommended (and not for the first time for this question).

I found a link in stackoverflow here use-3des-encryption-decryption-in-java,but in fact the method uses only two parameter:HG58YZ3CR9" and the "IvParameterSpec iv = new IvParameterSpec(new byte[8]);"
But the most strong option of triple des could use three different key to encrypt the message.So how to do that? I find a mehond in Cipher, which use "SecureRandom" as another parameter.So is this the right way?
The first method code is below:
import java.security.MessageDigest;
import java.util.Arrays;
import javax.crypto.Cipher;
import javax.crypto.SecretKey;
import javax.crypto.spec.IvParameterSpec;
import javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec;
public class TripleDESTest {

byte[] codedtext = new TripleDESTest().encrypt(text);
String decodedtext = new TripleDESTest().decrypt(codedtext);
System.out.println(codedtext); // this is a byte array, you'll just see a reference to an array
System.out.println(decodedtext); // This correctly shows "kyle boon"
}
public byte[] encrypt(String message) throws Exception {
final MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA-1");
final byte[] digestOfPassword = md.digest("HG58YZ3CR9"
.getBytes("utf-8"));
final byte[] keyBytes = Arrays.copyOf(digestOfPassword, 24);
for (int j = 0, k = 16; j < 8;) {
keyBytes[k++] = keyBytes[j++];
}
final SecretKey key = new SecretKeySpec(keyBytes, "DESede");
final IvParameterSpec iv = new IvParameterSpec(new byte[8]);
final Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("DESede/CBC/PKCS5Padding");
cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, key, iv);
final byte[] plainTextBytes = message.getBytes("utf-8");
final byte[] cipherText = cipher.doFinal(plainTextBytes);
// final String encodedCipherText = new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder()
// .encode(cipherText);
return cipherText;
}
public String decrypt(byte[] message) throws Exception {
final MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA-1");
final byte[] digestOfPassword = md.digest("HG58YZ3CR9"
.getBytes("utf-8"));
final byte[] keyBytes = Arrays.copyOf(digestOfPassword, 24);
for (int j = 0, k = 16; j < 8;) {
keyBytes[k++] = keyBytes[j++];
}
final SecretKey key = new SecretKeySpec(keyBytes, "DESede");
final IvParameterSpec iv = new IvParameterSpec(new byte[8]);
final Cipher decipher = Cipher.getInstance("DESede/CBC/PKCS5Padding");
decipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, key, iv);
// final byte[] encData = new
// sun.misc.BASE64Decoder().decodeBuffer(message);
final byte[] plainText = decipher.doFinal(message);
return new String(plainText, "UTF-8");
}
}
As per this document, simply pass the cipher a key that is 168 bits long.
Keysize must be equal to 112 or 168.
A keysize of 112 will generate a Triple DES key with 2 intermediate keys, and a keysize of 168 will generate a Triple DES key with 3 intermediate keys.
Your code seems to do something questionable to make up for the fact that the output of MD5 is only 128 bits long.
Copy-pasting cryptographic code off the internet will not produce secure applications. Using a static IV compromises several reasons why CBC mode is better than ECB. If you are using a static key, you should probably consider generating random bytes using a secure random number generator instead of deriving the key from a short ASCII string. Also, there is absolutely no reason to use Triple DES instead of AES in new applications.
In principle, the for-next loop to generate the DES ABA key does seem correct. Note that you can provide DESede with a 16 byte key from Java 7 onwards, which amounts to the same thing.
That said, the code you've shown leaves a lot to be desired:
I is not secure:
the key is not generated by a Password Based Key Derivation Function (PBKDF) using the (password?) string
the key is composed of two keys instead of three (using a triple DES or TDEA with an ABA key)
the IV is set to all zero's instead of being randomized
the "password" string is too short
Furthermore the following code mistakes can be seen:
using new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder() which is in the Sun proprietary packages (which can be removed or changed during any upgrade of the runtime)
throwing Exception for platform exceptions and runtime exceptions (not being able to decrypt is handled the same way as not being able to instantiate the Cipher)
requesting 24 bytes instead of 16 within the Arrays.copyOf() call (which seems to return 24 SHA-1 output while there are only 20 bytes)
To generate a 3DES 24 byte (168 bits used) DES ABC key from a password (like) String you should use PBKDF-2. Adding an authentication tag is also very important if man-in-the-middle attacks or padding oracle apply. It would be much secure and much more practical to upgrade to AES if you can control the algorithms being used as well.
First of all I wanna say thank you...
I wrote a program which one is doing encryption and decryption with Enum.
Enum has AES,BlowFish,DESede. My program will support these 3 encryption algorithm.
Then I wanted to Generate a SecretKey with SecretKeyFactory.But I think,I made a mistake to generate a key. (Obviously I loose myself in code.I have no idea about what can I do...)
My Code is below. This program's purpose is;
Users will write encryption and decryption method parameters. (Text,Encryption Algorithm)
Algorithm type will choose in Enum type. (Enum has 3 algorithm format)
According to the entered Encryption Type,program will encrypt entered text.
I know my code is really terrible. It has lots of unnecessary declaration and logical mistakes.
Code is working fine sometimes,sometimes will crash.
EDIT = Question is my code doesnt work always. Sometimes gives error. Error is = javax.crypto.BadPaddingException: Given final block not properly padded
Thank you for answering.

The theme of the problem is misunderstanding of the relationship between Strings and bytes. At the end of the encrypt method, what do you think these two lines do:
byte[] ciphertext = cipher.doFinal(...
return new String(ciphertext);
The last line takes the encrypted bytes, which could be almost anything, and attempts to interpret those bytes as encoding some characters of a string. Using what encoding? String constructor with no character encoding argument uses system default encoding, which depends on JVM/OS/Locale. Lets say it is UTF-8. Are you guaranteed that there will actually be some character for the encrypted bytes? Answer: NO. Will you get the same bytes back, when you take the resulting string and call .getBytes("UTF-8"). Answer: No, there are mutliple byte sequences encoding the same characters, thus new String(bytes, "UTF-8").getBytes("UTF-8") is not guaranteed to return the bytes you started with.
In summary, don't attempt to interpret arbitrary bytes as a string. Make your encrypt method return byte[], and your decryp method take an array of bytes to decode-- then it will work.
It is not necessary to make your program work, but if you must represent the encrypted bytes as a string, consider base64 encoding, or hexadecimal encoding -- these encodings uniquely map every possible byte (or sequence of bytes) to a string.
UPDATE: here is a more concise generateKey() method. It allows you to pass the password in as an argument.
public static SecretKey generateKey(String password) {
try {
SecureRandom secureRandom = SecureRandom.getInstance("SHA1PRNG");
byte saltBytes[] = new byte[20];
secureRandom.nextBytes(saltBytes);
KeySpec spec = new PBEKeySpec(password.toCharArray(), saltBytes, 65536, 128);
SecretKeyFactory factory = SecretKeyFactory.getInstance("PBKDF2WithHmacSHA1");
SecretKey secretKey = factory.generateSecret(spec);
return new SecretKeySpec(secretKey.getEncoded(), "AES");
} catch (Exception e) {
throw new IllegalStateException("Key cant be generated !");
}
}
PHP Function:
$privateKey = "1234567812345678";
$iv = "1234567812345678";
$data = "Test string";
$encrypted = mcrypt_encrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, $privateKey, $data, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, $iv);
echo(base64_encode($encrypted));
Result: iz1qFlQJfs6Ycp+gcc2z4w==
Java Function
public static String encrypt() throws Exception{
try{
String data = "Test string";
String key = "1234567812345678";
String iv = "1234567812345678";
javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec keyspec = new javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec(key.getBytes(), "AES");
javax.crypto.spec.IvParameterSpec ivspec = new javax.crypto.spec.IvParameterSpec(iv.getBytes());
javax.crypto.Cipher cipher = javax.crypto.Cipher.getInstance("AES/CBC/NoPadding");
cipher.init(javax.crypto.Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, keyspec, ivspec);
byte[] encrypted = cipher.doFinal(data.getBytes());
return new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder().encode(encrypted);
}catch(Exception e){
return null;
}
}
returns null.
Please note that we are not allowed to change the PHP code. Could somebody please help us get the same results in Java? Many thanks.
You'd have had a better idea of what was going on if you didn't simply swallow up possible Exceptions inside your encrypt() routine. If your function is returning null then clearly an exception happened and you need to know what it was.
In fact, the exception is:
javax.crypto.IllegalBlockSizeException: Input length not multiple of 16 bytes
at com.sun.crypto.provider.CipherCore.finalNoPadding(CipherCore.java:854)
at com.sun.crypto.provider.CipherCore.doFinal(CipherCore.java:828)
at com.sun.crypto.provider.CipherCore.doFinal(CipherCore.java:676)
at com.sun.crypto.provider.AESCipher.engineDoFinal(AESCipher.java:313)
at javax.crypto.Cipher.doFinal(Cipher.java:2087)
at Encryption.encrypt(Encryption.java:20)
at Encryption.main(Encryption.java:6)
And sure enough, your plaintext is only 11 Java characters long which, in your default encoding, will be 11 bytes.
You need to check what the PHP mcrypt_encrypt function actually does. Since it works, it is clearly using some padding scheme. You need to find out which one it is and use it in your Java code.
Ok -- I looked up the man page for mcrypt_encrypt. It says:
The data that will be encrypted with the given cipher and mode. If the size of the data is not n * blocksize, the data will be padded with \0.
So you need to replicate that in Java. Here's one way:
import javax.crypto.Cipher;
import javax.crypto.spec.IvParameterSpec;
import javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec;
public class Encryption
{
public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception {
System.out.println(encrypt());
}
public static String encrypt() throws Exception {
try {
String data = "Test string";
String key = "1234567812345678";
String iv = "1234567812345678";
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES/CBC/NoPadding");
int blockSize = cipher.getBlockSize();
// We need to pad with zeros to a multiple of the cipher block size,
// so first figure out what the size of the plaintext needs to be.
byte[] dataBytes = data.getBytes();
int plaintextLength = dataBytes.length;
int remainder = plaintextLength % blockSize;
if (remainder != 0) {
plaintextLength += (blockSize - remainder);
}
// In java, primitive arrays of integer types have all elements
// initialized to zero, so no need to explicitly zero any part of
// the array.
byte[] plaintext = new byte[plaintextLength];
// Copy our actual data into the beginning of the array. The
// rest of the array is implicitly zero-filled, as desired.
System.arraycopy(dataBytes, 0, plaintext, 0, dataBytes.length);
SecretKeySpec keyspec = new SecretKeySpec(key.getBytes(), "AES");
IvParameterSpec ivspec = new IvParameterSpec(iv.getBytes());
cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, keyspec, ivspec);
byte[] encrypted = cipher.doFinal(plaintext);
return new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder().encode(encrypted);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
return null;
}
}
}
And when I run that I get:
iz1qFlQJfs6Ycp+gcc2z4w==
which is what your PHP program got.
Update (12 June 2016):
As of Java 8, JavaSE finally ships with a documented base64 codec. So instead of
return new sun.misc.BASE64Encoder().encode(encrypted);
you should do something like
return Base64.Encoder.encodeToString(encrypted);
Alternatively, use a 3rd-party library (such as commons-codec) for base64 encoding/decoding rather than using an undocumented internal method.
