I have a problem with encryption lib,
i have this code :
B4X:
    Dim Kg As KeyGenerator
    Dim c As Cipher
    Dim data(),key() As Byte
    Dim bc As  ByteConverter
   
    Dim Text As String    = "090000000033140000004555525812FFFABCDE87FFCBD245"
    Dim chiave As String  = "6745230167452301FF66613800000000"
    key = bc.HexToBytes(chiave)
   
    c.Initialize("AES/ECB/NoPadding") 
   
    Kg.Initialize("AES")
    Kg.KeyFromBytes(key)
   
    data =bc.HexToBytes(Text)
   
    data = c.Encrypt(data, Kg.key, False)
    Msgbox(data,"Cripteed")

and this error :

I use an encrypted string to communicate via USB with a device, it use no padding mode.

this is java source code library of device

B4X:
public byte[] AESnew(long pFixedKey, long pVariableKey, String pComando, boolean flg_encrypt, int lunghezza) {
//BA.Log(" result comando  " +pComando);
//BA.Log(" lunghezza comando  " +lunghezza);

int[] tmpData = new int[255];

tmpData = hexStringToByteArray(pComando);

for ( int i = 0; i<lunghezza;i++){
  //BA.Log(" result primo  " + String.valueOf(tmpData));
}

    SSP_COMMAND sspCommand = new SSP_COMMAND();
    SSP_FULL_KEY sspFullKey = new SSP_FULL_KEY();
    sspFullKey.FixedKey =  pFixedKey;
    sspFullKey.VariableKey =  pVariableKey;
    sspCommand.Key = sspFullKey;
    sspCommand.EncryptionStatus = flg_encrypt;
    sspCommand.encPktCount = 0;
    sspCommand.CommandDataLength =  lunghezza ;
    
    //BA.Log(" aaaaaa "  );
    aes_encrypt(sspFullKey, tmpData,(byte) lunghezza, 0);
    
     byte[] result = new byte[lunghezza];
    
    for(int i = 0; i < tmpData.length; i++){
        result = (byte) tmpData;
        //BA.Log(" result " +  tmpData);
        }
          
    return result;
}

public static int[] hexStringToByteArray(String s) {
    int[] b = new int[s.length() / 2];
    for (int i = 0; i < b.length; i++) {
      int index = i * 2;
      int v = Integer.parseInt(s.substring(index, index + 2), 16);
      b = v;
    }
    return b;
  }
  
void EncryptSSPPacket(SSP_COMMAND cmd) {
        final byte FIXED_PACKET_LENGTH = 7;
        final byte C_MAX_KEY_LENGTH = 16;
        byte pkLength, i, packLength = 0;
        int crc;
        int[] tmpData = new int[255];

         pkLength = (byte) (cmd.CommandDataLength);

/*
        if (pkLength % C_MAX_KEY_LENGTH != 0) {
            packLength = (byte) (C_MAX_KEY_LENGTH - (pkLength % C_MAX_KEY_LENGTH));
        }
        pkLength += packLength;

        tmpData[0] = cmd.CommandDataLength;  

        for (i = 0; i < 4; i++) {
            tmpData[1 + i] = (byte) ((cmd.encPktCount >> (8 * i) & 0xFF));
        }

        for (i = 0; i < cmd.CommandDataLength; i++) {
            tmpData[i + 5] = cmd.CommandData;

If you use nopadding, the you must pad manually. it works (DATA_MULTIPLE_OF_BLOCK_LENGTH) :
B4X:
    Dim Text As String    = "090000000033140000004555525812FFFABCDE87FFCBD2450000000000000000"
    Dim chiave As String  = "6745230167452301FF66613800000000"

@Lello1964 have you tried using my library???


Also you have been a member since 2011, please use the code take when posting code, it makes for easier reading.

//BA.Log(" aaaaaa " );
aes_encrypt(sspFullKey, tmpData,(byte) lunghezza, 0);
I’m pretty sure this call does AES encryption with padding. Seeing the source to that function would prove/disprove that.
for (i = 0; i < pkLength - 1; i++) {
cmd.CommandData[1 + i] = tmpData;
}
This strips out the padding (after encryption)

B4X:
            Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES/ECB/NoPadding");
            cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, new SecretKeySpec(key, "AES"));

this is original java : "AES/ECB/NoPadding

I have saw you library, but how set "AES/ECB/NoPadding" ?

Show all of the code of the aes_encrypt. There is no way (I could be wrong, maybe) that the function uses NoPadding but does not pad the to be encrypted packet. With NoPadding, the packet HAS to be the proper length. Also, what is up with EncryptSSPPacket(SSP_COMMAND cmd)? I see no encryption done in that routine. How does it relate to what the issue is here?

The more I look at what you have provided, the less sense it makes to me
B4X:
     byte[] result = new byte[lunghezza];
    
    for(int i = 0; i < tmpData.length; i++){
        result = (byte) tmpData;
        //BA.Log(" result " +  tmpData);
        }
What is done here? An result byte array is generated with the length of lunghezza. Yet you iterate through the whole length of tmpData (which is)
B4X:
int[] tmpData = new int[255];
256 bytes long. Yet not even the values of each tmpData element is transferred to result, just an abbreviated address of tmpData. Neither result's nor tmpData's values are being stepped through. Is this some translation from C pointer code to Java? If so, Java's pointers <> C pointers.

i have tryed to use Java code :
B4X:
ComandoCriptatoByte2 =Main.NativeMe.RunMethod("AESnew",Array As Object (Main.lFixedKey,Main.lVariableKey  , tmpComando,True, lung) )

where
Main.lFixedKey= 81985526925837671
Main.lVariableKey = 1334568616
tmpComando= "090000000033140000004555525812FFFABCDE87FFCBD245"
lung= 24

Where is your Java code? In Main? Then the method must be declared static. In a class? Then why are you using Main's NativeMe object? Also, you are not testing if Main is active (since it is an activity) before calling the code.

Where did you put this code? In Main? Then the declaration needs to be
B4X:
public static byte[] AESnew(long pFixedKey, long pVariableKey, String pComando, boolean flg_encrypt, int lunghezza) {
It needs to be declared static. Either that, or move the java code to a class module.

the problem isn't java code, it's ok:
if i try to encrypt this string : "0200000000490112FFFABCDE87FF2456" , no errors if lenght = 32
The problem is using a string like "090000000033140000004555525812FFFABCDE87FFCBD245" lenght = 48.
I have tryed to fill to 64 : "090000000033140000004555525812FFFABCDE87FFCBD2450000000000000000" then no errors, but device doesn't decrypt correctly the string.
Also using "AES/ECB/PKCS5Padding " device doesn't decrypt correctly the string.

Ok, so both aes_encrypt AND the B4A code you initially posted fail with data that is not a multiple of 16 (strangely, length of 48 should have worked). That's a given with no padding. There is just no way around it. If you use NoPadding, you have to ensure yourself that the data is the proper length before encrypting or decrypting the data. So where are the specifications of what your are trying to accomplish and/or communicate with? BTW, the error in post#11 is actually an index out of bounds error. Your accessing index 16, even though the max index should be 15 (length = 16).

I have SOLVED, "090000000033140000004555525812FFFABCDE87FFCBD2450000000000000000" are bytes !! lenght=24 Bytes, isn't multiple of 16 !!!!!!

SOLVED padding to 64 Byte.

Thanks all for help.
