I have a problem in encrypting/decrypting log file generated by log4j's RollingFileAppender. For the encryption I have tried to extend the RollingFileAppender, just call it EncryptedRollingFileAppender. I override the method
setFile(String fileName, boolean append, boolean bufferedIO, int bufferSize)
and basically I use CipherOutputStream and Base64OutputStream to encrypt and encode everything written to the output stream. Here's part of the code:
...
setImmediateFlush(true);
FileOutputStream ostream = null;
CipherOutputStream cstream = null;
Base64OutputStream b64stream = null;
try {
byte[] keyBytes = "1234123412341234".getBytes(); //example
final byte[] ivBytes = new byte[] { 0x00, 0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06,
0x07, 0x08, 0x09, 0x0a, 0x0b, 0x0c, 0x0d, 0x0e, 0x0f }; //example
final SecretKey key = new SecretKeySpec(keyBytes, "AES");
final IvParameterSpec IV = new IvParameterSpec(ivBytes);
final Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES/CFB8/NoPadding");
cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, key, IV);
ostream = new FileOutputStream(fileName, true);
b64stream = new Base64OutputStream(ostream);
cstream = new CipherOutputStream(b64stream, cipher);
} catch(Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
Writer cw = createWriter(cstream);
...
And then i decrypt the file with this code:
private static void decryptFile(String filename) throws Exception {
FileInputStream fis = null;
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(filename));
File file = new File(filename + "-decrypted");
file.createNewFile();
Writer out = new OutputStreamWriter(new FileOutputStream(filename + "-decrypted"), "UTF-8");
String line = null;
try {
while (( line = br.readLine()) != null){
line = decrypt(Base64.decodeBase64(line));
out.write(line);
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
if (br != null) {
br.close();
}
if (fis != null) {
fis.close();
}
if (out != null) {
out.close();
}
}
}
public static String decrypt(byte[] line) throws Exception {
byte[] keyBytes = "1234123412341234".getBytes();
final byte[] ivBytes = new byte[] { 0x00, 0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07, 0x08, 0x09,
0x0a, 0x0b, 0x0c, 0x0d, 0x0e, 0x0f };
final SecretKey secretkey = new SecretKeySpec(keyBytes, "AES");
final IvParameterSpec IV = new IvParameterSpec(ivBytes);
final Cipher decipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES/CFB8/NoPadding");
decipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, secretkey, IV);
final byte[] plainText = decipher.doFinal(line);
return new String(plainText, "UTF-8").trim();
}
It worked but only partially. Some texts in the result file were decrypted correctly but some others were not. If you're curious, this is what I mean by partially:
07 Jul 11 13:13:13, DEBUG MrBean.java:checkUserVal���̥V;��ƃ�˨�� - username: squall,password: 4GROmr95Qcf����v�M�7�y�5�@CGO09 ,active: true
I also have tried changing the algorithm to "DESede" but it was still partially decrypted. Then I tried to use "CBC/PKCS5Padding" in both ends but I got an exception
javax.crypto.IllegalBlockSizeException: Input length must be multiple of 16 when decrypting with padded cipher
I assume the encryption is not properly padding the input but I wonder why... because when I use the same encryption and decryption algorithms without the CipherOutputStream the padding worked just fine. Anyone can help me to make this works? Any help will be appreciated.
