Hello,
I am trying to implement encryption/Decryption in ESP 32 S3 using their IDF.The Sample code i referred to is
https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/blo ... les.c#L300, which works fine .
Basically my problem statement is ,i am getting a encrypted string in Base 64 format, which i need to decrypt, do some processing, encrypt it and send it back.
Currently , i am facing a problem that if a string other than ascii format is passed to encryption /decryption function its throws a error (-135) , i.e Invalid parameter.
i wanted some help to cope up with the above problem.

Re: Sample code for Implementing PSA_ALG_CBC_PKCS7 ESP 32-S3
a) show us your code which reproduces the error
b) make sure you don't use strlen(...) on binary data
b) make sure you don't use strlen(...) on binary data

hello
This is the code i am using .i have modified reference code's function cipher_example_encrypt_decrypt_aes_cbc_pkcs7_multi a little to suit my need.Rest all functions i have used from reference code(https://github.com/Mbed-TLS/mbedtls/blo ... les.c#L300,) as it is.Here 'a' is a string i am receiving from a third party app light blue, and 'b' is the length of the string.
I am converting encrypted output to base 64 format, and passing that converted string to decrypt function.On hitting cipher operation in decrypt function i am getting error -135.

Re: Sample code for Implementing PSA_ALG_CBC_PKCS7 ESP 32-S3
Not sure why one would do that. There are easier ways to generate pseudo-random numbers.I am converting encrypted output to base 64 format, and passing that converted string to decrypt function.
With that, I find it hard to see what in your code is intentional and what's not.
However,
Code: Select all
status = cipher_encrypt(key, alg, iv, sizeof(iv),
a, b, part_size,
encrypt, sizeof(encrypt), &output_len);
...
status = cipher_decrypt(key, alg, iv, sizeof(iv),
base64_output, b, part_size,
decrypt, sizeof(decrypt), &b);
Re: Sample code for Implementing PSA_ALG_CBC_PKCS7 ESP 32-S3
Hello,
Thank you for your reply.
To answer your question , In my problem statement i am getting a base 64 encrypted string and i need to decrypt that string.
secondly , I get your point that i need to give length of encrypted string as input to decrypt function.
But i need clarity on following points.
1.does encrypt and decrypt function accept Only ASCII strings.
2.Can i call the Decrypt function directly if i have a encrypted string or its mandatory to follow first encrypt then decrypt sequence.
Thank you for your reply.

Re: Sample code for Implementing PSA_ALG_CBC_PKCS7 ESP 32-S3
Ok, I think I get that.
But, and to your question: Encryption yields non-ASCII, binary data. And cipher_decrypt expects the same binary data. If you have a Base64 string containing encrypted data, you'll want to first decode Base64 to binary and then perform decryption on the binary data.
Passing the Base64 string to cipher_decrypt will result in garbage data output, and, as you have noticed, may fail straight away because the Base64 is of a different length than the binary data encoded in it and expected by the decryption algorithm.
Alice:
message = Base64Encode(encrypt(plaintext));
Bob:
plaintext = decrypt(Base64Decode(message));
