I wanted to encrypt data to be sent over ble. I am trying to reuse the security file provided with blufi example.

I think the two API blufi_aes_encrypt & blufi_aes_decrypt are to be used to encrypt and decrypt. I tried to make a test code.

first I initalized

Code: Select all

void app_main()
{
  char *input="hello";
  char *out;
  if( security_init() == ESP_FAIL  )
    {
      ESP_LOGI(TAG,"Security init failed.\n");
    }
ESP_LOGI(TAG,"Security done.\n");
aes_encrypt(10, input,5);                       <---- but this keeps crashing  I don't understand its input. 
ESP_LOGI(TAG,"Encrypted : %s \n",input); 
}

I am also thinking where the encryption key set?

I want simple way to encrypt and decrypt data. so please any example would be helpful.

Hi,
I'm getting the same issue you. Did you you find out how to make it work?

I dont know why this is not answered yet, since its a simple answer. This is wrong usage:

Code: Select all

aes_encrypt(10, input,5);

Check this https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/bl ... /aes.h#L21
and this https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/bl ... .h#L49-L52

and you will have answers why it crash and where to set encryption key.

OK thanks, after a time spent looking on the code, I managed to understand how to use the mbedtls aes encryption/decryption
