I would like to encrypt and decrypt a password using 128 bit AES encryption with 16 byte key. I am getting javax.crypto.BadPaddingException
error while decrypting the value. Am I missing anything while decrypting?
public static void main(String args[]) {
Test t = new Test();
String encrypt = new String(t.encrypt("mypassword"));
System.out.println("decrypted value:" + t.decrypt("ThisIsASecretKey", encrypt));
}
public String encrypt(String value) {
try {
byte[] raw = new byte[]{'T', 'h', 'i', 's', 'I', 's', 'A', 'S', 'e', 'c', 'r', 'e', 't', 'K', 'e', 'y'};
SecretKeySpec skeySpec = new SecretKeySpec(raw, "AES");
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");
cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, skeySpec);
byte[] encrypted = cipher.doFinal(value.getBytes());
System.out.println("encrypted string:" + (new String(encrypted)));
return new String(skeySpec.getEncoded());
} catch (NoSuchAlgorithmException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Test.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
} catch (IllegalBlockSizeException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Test.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);

}
return null;
}
public String decrypt(String key, String encrypted) {
try {
SecretKeySpec skeySpec = new SecretKeySpec(key.getBytes(), "AES");
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");
cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, new SecretKeySpec(skeySpec.getEncoded(), "AES"));
//getting error here
byte[] original = cipher.doFinal(encrypted.getBytes());
return new String(original);
