Converting MCRYPT to OPENSSL [duplicate] - php

Question

This question already has an answer here:
Upgrading my encryption library from Mcrypt to OpenSSL
(1 answer)
Closed 3 years ago.
I inherited a project that was coded back in the PHP 5.X days. The site is running on PHP 7.1 right now and using the MCRYPT library for it's encryption and decryption functions.
I need to upgrade to PHP 7.2, which means bye bye MCRYPT!
Not being familiar with encryption is causing issues with trying to convert to OPENSSL
Below is the code that is currently in place.
function decrypt($encryptedText)
{
$key = pack('H*', 'NOTHINGTOSEEHERE');
$enc = base64_decode($encryptedText);
return trim(mcrypt_decrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, $key, $enc, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, $key), "\x80");
}
function encrypt($plaintext)
{
$key = pack('H*', 'NOTHINGTOSEEHERE');
$blockSize = mcrypt_get_block_size(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB);
$inputLength = strlen($plaintext);
$blockCount = floor($inputLength / $blockSize);
$padding = ($blockCount + 1) * $blockSize - $inputLength;
$paddedPlainText = str_pad($plaintext, $inputLength + $padding, "\x80", STR_PAD_RIGHT);
$enc = mcrypt_encrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, $key, $paddedPlainText, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB, $key);
return base64_encode($enc);
}
I have looked over several other StackOverflow posts that go over this exact topic of converting from MCRYPT to OPENSSL, and based on everything I have read, I came up with the following code, which doesn't work.
function decrypt($encryptedText)
{
$key = pack('H*', 'NOTHINGTOSEEHERE');
$ivsize = openssl_cipher_iv_length('AES-128-ECB');
$iv = openssl_random_pseudo_bytes($ivsize);
$enc = base64_decode($encryptedText);
return trim(openssl_decrypt($enc, 'AES-128-ECB', $key, OPENSSL_RAW_DATA | OPENSSL_ZERO_PADDING, $iv);
}
function encrypt($plaintext)
{
$key = pack('H*', 'NOTHINGTOSEEHERE');
$ivsize = openssl_cipher_iv_length('AES-128-ECB');
$iv = openssl_random_pseudo_bytes($ivsize);
$enc = openssl_encrypt($plaintext, 'AES-128-ECB', $key, OPENSSL_RAW_DATA | OPENSSL_ZERO_PADDING, $iv);
return base64_encode($enc);
}
I am not sure, but I have a feeling the issue has to do with the padding of the text in the old encryption function this is causing the new code not to work. I don't know how to integrate that into the OPENSSL functions, if that is indeed the problem.
$blockSize = mcrypt_get_block_size(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, MCRYPT_MODE_ECB);
$inputLength = strlen($plaintext);
$blockCount = floor($inputLength / $blockSize);
$padding = ($blockCount + 1) * $blockSize - $inputLength;
$paddedPlainText = str_pad($plaintext, $inputLength + $padding, "\x80", STR_PAD_RIGHT);
Again, not being familiar with encryption, any/all help is appreciated so I can figure out and understand what I am doing wrong.

I've dealt with this when upgrading my user password encryption. In pseudologic, you just need something like this:
<?php
if ($whatever === $this->decryptNew($var)) {
// business as usual
} elseif ($whatever === $this->decryptOldWay($var)) {
// encrypt as the new way!
$encrypted = $this->encryptNew($whatever);
// save!
// Back to business as usual!
}
Here's my SSl class. Give it a try:
class Ssl
{
private $cipher = "aes-128-gcm";
private $options = 0;
/**
* #param string $plaintext
* #return array
*/
public function encrypt($plaintext)
{
$key = \openssl_random_pseudo_bytes(16);
$ivlen = \openssl_cipher_iv_length($this->cipher);
$iv = \openssl_random_pseudo_bytes($ivlen);
$ciphertext = openssl_encrypt($plaintext, $this->cipher, $key, $this->options, $iv,$tag);
return array(
'key' => \bin2hex($key),
'iv' => \bin2hex($iv),
'tag' => \bin2hex($tag),
'ciphertext' => $ciphertext,
);
}
/**
* #param string $json
* #return false|string
*/
public function decrypt($json, $key)
{
$data = \json_decode($json);
$result = \openssl_decrypt($data->ciphertext, $this->cipher, \hex2bin($key), $this->options, \hex2bin($data->iv), \hex2bin($data->tag));
return \json_decode($result, true);
}
}
