Here is a PHP demo script that encrypts and decrypts data:
<?
$encryptionkey = 'h8y2p9d1';
$card_nbr = "1234";
echo "original card_nbr: $card_nbr <br>\n";
$card_nbr_encrypted=encrypt_data($card_nbr);
echo "card_nbr_encrypted: $card_nbr_encrypted <br>\n";
$card_nbr_decrypted=decrypt_data($card_nbr_encrypted);
echo "card_nbr_decrypted: $card_nbr_decrypted <br>\n";
$len=strlen($card_nbr_decrypted);
echo "length: $len <br>\n";
function encrypt_data($text){
global $encryptionkey;
$iv_size = mcrypt_get_iv_size(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB);
$iv = mcrypt_create_iv($iv_size, MCRYPT_RAND);
$encrypted_text = mcrypt_encrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, $encryptionkey, $text, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, $iv);
return $encrypted_text;
}
function decrypt_data($text){
global $encryptionkey;
$iv_size = mcrypt_get_iv_size(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB);
$iv = mcrypt_create_iv($iv_size, MCRYPT_RAND);
$decrypted_text = mcrypt_decrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_256, $encryptionkey, $text, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, $iv);
return $decrypted_text;
}
?>
The output is:
original card_nbr: 1234
card_nbr_encrypted: vY¨(Z$<§G3-žÃ-Éù3Ý2Ê×rz¨VÛ
card_nbr_decrypted: 1234 (and 28 binary characters)
length: 32
The output is successfully decrypted, but 28 binary characters are added to the end. This can most easily be seen in Firefox, when viewing HTML source.
The string length of 32 also demonstrates this. Any ideas?
The returned string is padded out to fill n * blocksize
bytes using the null character \0
so that is why you are seeing the extra data.
If you run $card_nbr_decrypted= rtrim($card_nbr_decrypted, "\0");
it should return the actual data.
