I have an encrypt/decrypt mechanism for downloaded files in my app.
This mechanism works in all android devices and versions prior to android 5.0-lollipop.
Here is decryption process:
cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, key);
fileInputStream = new FileInputStream(file);
cipherInputStream = new CipherInputStream(fileInputStream, cipher);
byte[] fileByte = new byte[(int) file.length()];
int j = cipherInputStream.read(fileByte);
return fileByte;
cipher and key were generated before and are used in whole app:
key = new SecretKeySpec(keyValue, "AES");
try {
cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
When I decrypt a file with about 200,000 bytes in android 5.0, j (variable before return) is about 8000 which is much lower than 200000, while in older android versions it is exactly equal to decrypted file length.
I found that the problem is in decryption. Because I can encrypt a file in android 5.0 and decrypt it in older android versions, but not vice versa. However I am posting encryption process:
cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, AESutil.key);
cipherOutputStream = new CipherOutputStream(output, cipher);
byte data[] = new byte[1024];
int count;
while ((count = input.read(data)) != -1) {
cipherOutputStream.write(data, 0, count);
}
Thanks in advance
My Cipher example (L) :
APPPATH is String to my aplication directory on sd card
static void encrypt(File file, String pass) throws IOException, NoSuchAlgorithmException, NoSuchPaddingException, InvalidKeyException {
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(APPPATH+"/E_"+file.getName());
SecretKeySpec sks = new SecretKeySpec(pass.getBytes(), "AES");
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");
cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, sks);
CipherOutputStream cos = new CipherOutputStream(fos, cipher);
int b;
byte[] d = new byte[8];
while((b = fis.read(d)) != -1) {
cos.write(d, 0, b);
}
cos.flush();
cos.close();
fis.close();
}
static void decrypt(File file, String pass) throws IOException, NoSuchAlgorithmException, NoSuchPaddingException, InvalidKeyException {
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(APPPATH+"/D_"+file.getName());
SecretKeySpec sks = new SecretKeySpec(pass.getBytes(), "AES");
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");
cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, sks);
CipherInputStream cis = new CipherInputStream(fis, cipher);
int b;
byte[] d = new byte[8];
while((b = cis.read(d)) != -1) {
fos.write(d, 0, b);
}
fos.flush();
fos.close();
cis.close();
}
