Decode Java encoded Base64 string in C#

base64

I have a base64 encoded string that was encoded in Java:

string s = "x8QeoAdVOAwpKHAeXIxEticayZLMx7RP_baVdSpDSLLea5TZMxRT-IX93lA05MEUzmwtOvd6WLRBluLchZz2EJSHsFfxxtPQF1VEFv4rA5w="

I'm trying to decode it in C# using the following statement.

string s = "x8QeoAdVOAwpKHAeXIxEticayZLMx7RP_baVdSpDSLLea5TZMxRT-IX93lA05MEUzmwtOvd6WLRBluLchZz2EJSHsFfxxtPQF1VEFv4rA5w="

var decodedBytes = System.Convert.FromBase64String(s);

But I get the error:

The input is not a valid Base-64 string as it contains a non-base 64 character, more than two padding characters, or an illegal character among the padding characters.

What am I doing wrong? I can clearly see there are no illegal characters. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Update : Here is the java code that generated that string.

 private static String encrypt(byte[] iv, String salt, String password, String clearText) throws Exception {
byte[] encryptedBytes = encryptDecrypt(true, iv, salt, password, clearText.getBytes("UTF-8"));
return Base64.encodeBytes(encryptedBytes, 16);

}

  private static byte[] encryptDecrypt(boolean encrypt, byte[] iv, String salt, String password, byte[] bytesToEncryptDecrypt) throws Exception {
SecretKeySpec secretKeySpec = null;
MessageDigest digester = MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA-1");
digester.update((salt + password).getBytes("UTF-8"));
byte[] key = digester.digest();
secretKeySpec = new SecretKeySpec(key, 2, 16, "AES");
IvParameterSpec ivps = new IvParameterSpec(iv);
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding");
cipher.init(encrypt ? 1 : 2, secretKeySpec, ivps);
return cipher.doFinal(bytesToEncryptDecrypt, 0, bytesToEncryptDecrypt.length);

}

Here is the Base64.class file (decompiled). It has both encode and decode methods from Java.

It should be as simple as replacing the - and _ that Java uses with the + and / that C# uses:

string s = "Vv7JKbNHOvHxC4L89be4vNw-J0KKPkMlq4iZb_T-35u-kjYhilF_ECJAPVufv2-2_ynUORVkIPPqd1H7MC-mrWW7Fu4ZcmsHG2Q1gJOU=";
string corrected = s.Replace('-', '+').Replace('_', '/');
var decodedBytes = System.Convert.FromBase64String(corrected);

However, your example string also seems to be incorrect; it's 105 characters long but (as it's padded) the length should be a multiple of 4. If you remove the trailing = from your input then this code works, but I'd be worried about how it got there. If it's meant to be there, you'll need to programatically trim/pad your input and then double-check that the results you get are what you're expecting.
