如何在JavaScript中用加密js加密的节点js中解密字符串

Question

My client side code:

data.username = CryptoJS.AES.encrypt(user.username, "password");
data.password = CryptoJS.AES.encrypt(user.password, "password");

Then I am sending 'data' to server which is express.js

var user = req.body;
var decipher = crypto.createDecipher('aes256', "password");
var decrypted = decipher.update(user.username, 'hex', 'utf-8');
decrypted += decipher.final('utf-8'); 

I am getting this error:

Error: DecipherInit error
at new Decipher (crypto.js:368:17)
at Object.Decipher (crypto.js:365:12)

CryptoJS' encrypt function with a password uses the same EVP_BytesToKey function node.js' createCipher , with the important difference that CryptoJS uses a random salt to derive whereas node does not (emphasis mine):

Note: createCipher derives keys with the OpenSSL function EVP_BytesToKey with the digest algorithm set to MD5, one iteration, and no salt .

Either you directly use CryptoJS in node which is possible, because CryptoJS doesn't have any dependencies, or you do the key derivation yourself on both ends and use crypto.createCipheriv . If you do the former, you would have to additionally pass the salts of the username and password encryptions to node.

Note that data.username is the CryptoJS cipherParams object which contains the salt and the IV, but when you convert this to string with data.username.toString() , the salt is not included anymore, but the IV is. This is not the data that you would put into the node.js functions. Send data.username.ciphertext instead.
