I met a blocking issue when I tried to immigrate my project from Windows Phone Silverlight 8.1 to Windows Runtime. In Windows Runtime the AES-encrypted string is not the same as the one on Silverlight before.
In Silverlight:
public static string EncryptAES(string encryptString)
{
AesManaged aes = null;
MemoryStream ms = null;
CryptoStream cs = null;
string encryptKey = "testtest123";
string salt = "abcabcabcd";
try
{
Rfc2898DeriveBytes rfc2898 = new Rfc2898DeriveBytes(encryptKey, Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(salt));
aes = new AesManaged();
aes.Key = rfc2898.GetBytes(aes.KeySize / 8);
aes.IV = rfc2898.GetBytes(aes.BlockSize / 8);
ms = new MemoryStream();
cs = new CryptoStream(ms, aes.CreateEncryptor(), CryptoStreamMode.Write);
byte[] data = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(encryptString);
cs.Write(data, 0, data.Length);
cs.FlushFinalBlock();
return Convert.ToBase64String(ms.ToArray());
}
catch
{
return encryptString;
}
finally
{
if (cs != null)
cs.Close();
if (ms != null)
ms.Close();
if (aes != null)
aes.Clear();
}
}
In Windows Runtime:
public static string EncryptAES(string plainText)
{
string pw = "testtest123";
string salt = "abcabcabcd";
IBuffer plainBuffer = CryptographicBuffer.ConvertStringToBinary(plainText, BinaryStringEncoding.Utf8);
IBuffer saltBuffer = CryptographicBuffer.ConvertStringToBinary(salt, BinaryStringEncoding.Utf8);
IBuffer pwBuffer = CryptographicBuffer.ConvertStringToBinary(pw, BinaryStringEncoding.Utf8);
KeyDerivationAlgorithmProvider keyDerivationProvider = Windows.Security.Cryptography.Core.KeyDerivationAlgorithmProvider.OpenAlgorithm(KeyDerivationAlgorithmNames.Pbkdf2Sha256);
// using salt and 1000 iterations
KeyDerivationParameters pbkdf2Parms = KeyDerivationParameters.BuildForPbkdf2(saltBuffer, 1000);
// create a key based on original key and derivation parmaters
CryptographicKey keyOriginal = keyDerivationProvider.CreateKey(pwBuffer);
IBuffer keyMaterial = CryptographicEngine.DeriveKeyMaterial(keyOriginal, pbkdf2Parms, 32);
CryptographicKey derivedPwKey = keyDerivationProvider.CreateKey(pwBuffer);
// derive buffer to be used for encryption salt from derived password key
IBuffer saltMaterial = CryptographicEngine.DeriveKeyMaterial(derivedPwKey, pbkdf2Parms, 16);
// display the buffers - because KeyDerivationProvider always gets cleared after each use, they are very similar unforunately
string keyMaterialString = CryptographicBuffer.EncodeToBase64String(keyMaterial);
string saltMaterialString = CryptographicBuffer.EncodeToBase64String(saltMaterial);
//AES_CBC_PKCS7
SymmetricKeyAlgorithmProvider symProvider = SymmetricKeyAlgorithmProvider.OpenAlgorithm("AES_CBC_PKCS7");
// create symmetric key from derived password key
CryptographicKey symmKey = symProvider.CreateSymmetricKey(keyMaterial);
// encrypt data buffer using symmetric key and derived salt material
IBuffer resultBuffer = CryptographicEngine.Encrypt(symmKey, plainBuffer, saltMaterial);
string result = CryptographicBuffer.EncodeToBase64String(resultBuffer);
return result;
}
In Silverlight Project, string "123456" encrypted by AES is "4UfdhC/0MFQlMhl7N7gqLg=="; While in Windows Runtime Project, the AES-encrypted string is "jxsR5EuhPXgRsHLs4N3EGQ=="
So how can I get the same string on WinRT as the one on Silverlight ?
