如何使用AES解密用openssl命令加密的Java文件？

Question

I need to decrypt in JAVA a file encrypted in UNIX with the following command:

openssl aes-256-cbc -a -salt -in password.txt -out password.txt.enc
mypass
mypass

I have to decrypt in java as I do here I do in UNIX

openssl aes-256-cbc -d -a -in password.txt.enc -out password.txt.new
mypass

Someone can give me a java code to do this?

Answer 1

OpenSSL generally uses its own password based key derivation method, specified in EVP_BytesToKey , please see the code below. Furthermore, it implicitly encodes the ciphertext as base 64 over multiple lines, which would be required to send it within the body of a mail message.

So the result is, in pseudocode:

salt = random(8)
keyAndIV = BytesToKey(password, salt, 48)
key = keyAndIV[0..31]
iv = keyAndIV[32..47]
ct = AES-256-CBC-encrypt(key, iv, plaintext)
res = base64MimeEncode("Salted__" | salt | ct))

and the decryption therefore is:

(salt, ct) = base64MimeDecode(res)
key = keyAndIV[0..31]
iv = keyAndIV[32..47]
pt = AES-256-CBC-decrypt(key, iv, plaintext)

which can be implemented in Java like this:

import java.io.File;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.nio.charset.Charset;
import java.nio.file.Files;

Beware that the code specifies ASCII as character set. The character set used may differ for your application / terminal / OS.

In general you should force OpenSSL to use the NIST approved PBKDF2 algorithm, as using the OpenSSL key derivation method - with an iteration count of 1 - is insecure. This may force you to use a different solution than OpenSSL. Note that password based encryption is inherently rather insecure - passwords are much less secure than randomly generated symmetric keys.

---

OpenSSL 1.1.0c changed the digest algorithm used in some internal components. Formerly, MD5 was used, and 1.1.0 switched to SHA256. Be careful the change is not affecting you in both EVP_BytesToKey and commands like openssl enc .

It's probably best to explicitly specify the digest in the command line interface (eg -md md5 for backwards compatibility or sha-256 for forwards compatibility) for the and make sure that the Java code uses the same digest algorithm ( "MD5" or "SHA-256" including the dash). Also see the information in this answer .

Answer 2

Below are OpenSSLPBEInputStream and OpenSSLPBEOutputStream which can be used to encrypt/decrypt arbitrary streams of bytes in a way that is compatible with OpenSSL.

Example usage:

    // The original clear text bytes
    byte[] originalBytes = ...

    // Encrypt these bytes
    char[] pwd = "thePassword".toCharArray();
    ByteArrayOutputStream byteOS = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
    OpenSSLPBEOutputStream encOS = new OpenSSLPBEOutputStream(byteOS, ALGORITHM, 1, pwd);
    encOS.write(originalBytes);
    encOS.flush();
    byte[] encryptedBytes = byteOS.toByteArray();

    // Decrypt the bytes
    ByteArrayInputStream byteIS = new ByteArrayInputStream(encryptedBytes);
    OpenSSLPBEInputStream encIS = new OpenSSLPBEInputStream(byteIS, ALGORITHM, 1, pwd);

Where ALGORITHM (using just JDK classes) can be: "PBEWithMD5AndDES", "PBEWithMD5AndTripleDES", "PBEWithSHA1AndDESede", "PBEWithSHA1AndRC2_40".

To handle "openssl aes-256-cbc -a -salt -in password.txt -out password.txt.enc" of the original poster, add bouncey castle to the classpath, and use algorthm= "PBEWITHMD5AND256BITAES-CBC-OPENSSL".

/* Add BC provider, and fail fast if BC provider is not in classpath for some reason */
Security.addProvider(new BouncyCastleProvider());

Answer 4

Don't use ase-128-cbc, use ase-128-ecb.

only take first 16 bytes as key because key is 128 bits

hash output is printed in hex, which every 2 chars presents a byte value

hashpwd= echo -n $password| openssl sha1 | sed 's#.*=\\\\s*##g' | cut -c 1-32 echo -n $password| openssl sha1 | sed 's#.*=\\\\s*##g' | cut -c 1-32
