In my android app, it downloads a huge huge string from php. I want to compress it to save bandwidth. I found this page http://php.net/manual/en/function.gzcompress.php which allows me to compress it in php. But once I have it in android, how can I get back the original string?
Thanks
In my case I needed to decompress a string in PHP which was compressed in Android and visa versa and these strings were transported by RabbitMQ.
Here is how I solved it:
In Android:
public static byte[] compress(String string) throws IOException {
// string = "Lorem ipsum shizzle ma nizle";
byte[] data = string.getBytes("UTF-8");
ByteArrayOutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream( data.length );
GZIPOutputStream gos = new GZIPOutputStream(os);
gos.write( data );
gos.close();
os.close();
return os.toByteArray();
}
public static String decompress(byte[] compressed) throws IOException {
final int BUFFER_SIZE = compressed.length;
ByteArrayInputStream is = new ByteArrayInputStream(compressed);
GZIPInputStream gis = new GZIPInputStream(is, BUFFER_SIZE);
StringBuilder string = new StringBuilder();
byte[] data = new byte[BUFFER_SIZE];
int bytesRead;
while ((bytesRead = gis.read(data)) != -1) {
string.append(new String(data, 0, bytesRead));
}
gis.close();
is.close();
return string.toString();
}
RabbitMQ Calls from Android:
.
.
// Publish
chan.basicPublish(EXCHANGE, routing_key, MessageProperties.PERSISTENT_BASIC, compress(message.payload));
.
.
// Subscribe
String message = decompress(body);
.
.
.
From the RabbitMQ management plugin I retrieved the Base64 encoded version of the string in Latin, and ran it against this test app in PHP to see which decompression methodology works.
<?php
$data = "Lorem ipsum shizzle ma nizle";
// try all the compression algorithms and out the results in Hex format
echo "\n\n\n";
for($i=-1;$i<=9;$i++)
echo chunk_split(strtoupper(bin2hex(gzcompress($data,$i))),2," ") . PHP_EOL ;
echo "\n\n";
for($i=-1;$i<=9;$i++)
echo chunk_split(strtoupper(bin2hex(gzdeflate($data,$i))),2," ") . PHP_EOL ;
echo "\n\n";
for($i=-1;$i<=9;$i++)
echo chunk_split(strtoupper(bin2hex(gzencode($data,$i,FORCE_GZIP))),2," ") . PHP_EOL;
echo "\n\n";
for($i=-1;$i<=9;$i++)
echo chunk_split(strtoupper(bin2hex(gzencode($data,$i,FORCE_DEFLATE))),2," ") . PHP_EOL;
echo "\n\n";
// add the Base64 encoded text from the RabbitMQ plugin
$data = "H4sIAAAAAAAAAPPJL0rNVcgsKC7NVSjOyKyqyklVyE1UyMsEMgCX3v4lHAAAAA==";
$data = base64_decode($data);
// output the binary version of the compressed string in Hex format
echo chunk_split(strtoupper(bin2hex($data)),2," ") . PHP_EOL ;
// match the HEX string to the samples from above as there may be an offset that you need to deal with
// finally see which of the decompression methods work
echo gzuncompress($data)."\n";
echo gzinflate($data)."\n";
echo gzdecode($data)."\n";
// Double check that you have the correct one
$data = "Lorem ipsum shizzle ma nizle";
echo chunk_split(strtoupper(bin2hex(gzencode($data,9,FORCE_GZIP))),2," ") . PHP_EOL;
$data = gzencode($data,9,FORCE_GZIP);
echo gzdecode($data)."\n";
Thanks
Looks like it is just using gzip compression. If that's the case, take a look at:
http://developer.android.com/reference/java/util/zip/GZIPInputStream.html
If that isn't exactly the compression algorithm being used, there are a few more built in algorithms you can use as needed:

I have a program that encrypts passwords using a c# rsa public key which outputs a byte array.
In order for me to transport it easily and maintain data I am converting the bytes directly to a Hex string. Now this is where I am having issue. I send the post data to my script and am now unsure what to convert it to and how to decrypt it.
I am attempting to use http://phpseclib.sourceforge.net/ which I was pointed to by this post RSA decryption using private key The documentation on this is very vague and I don't know what data/type decrypt() should take.
<?php
include('Crypt/RSA.php');
if (isset($_POST['Password']))
{
$Password = $_POST['Password'];
$crypttext = pack("H*",$Password);
echo $cryptext;
$rsa = new Crypt_RSA();
$rsa->loadKey('key.priv');
$decryptedText =$rsa->decrypt($cryptext);
echo "Pass = >" . $decryptedText;
}
?>
Note that this gives no errors but $decryptedText is empty.
EDIT: Adding more info.
This is my c# encrypt method.
public static string Encrypt(string data, string keyLocation, string keyName)
{
Console.WriteLine("-------------------------BEGIN Encrypt--------------------");
// Variables
CspParameters cspParams = null;
RSACryptoServiceProvider rsaProvider = null;
string publicKeyText = "";
string result = "";
byte[] plainBytes = null;
byte[] encryptedBytes = null;
try
{
// Select target CSP
cspParams = new CspParameters();
cspParams.ProviderType = 1; // PROV_RSA_FULL
rsaProvider = new RSACryptoServiceProvider(2048, cspParams);
// Read public key from Server
WebClient client = new WebClient();
Stream stream = client.OpenRead(keyLocation + "/" + keyName);
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream);
publicKeyText = reader.ReadToEnd();
//
//Console.WriteLine("Key Text : {0}",publicKeyText);
// Import public key
rsaProvider.FromXmlString(publicKeyText);
// Encrypt plain text
plainBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(data);
Console.WriteLine("inputlength : {0}",plainBytes.Length);
encryptedBytes = rsaProvider.Encrypt(plainBytes, false);
result = ByteArrayToString(encryptedBytes);
Console.WriteLine("Encrypted Hex string : {0}", result);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
// Any errors? Show them
Console.WriteLine("Exception encrypting file! More info:");
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
rsaProvider.Dispose();
Console.WriteLine("-------------------------END Encrypt--------------------");
return result;
} // Encrypt
public static byte[] StringToByteArray(String hex)
{
int NumberChars = hex.Length / 2;
byte[] bytes = new byte[NumberChars];
using (var sr = new StringReader(hex))
{
for (int i = 0; i < NumberChars; i++)
bytes[i] =
Convert.ToByte(new string(new char[2] { (char)sr.Read(), (char)sr.Read() }), 16);
}
return bytes;
}
public static string ByteArrayToString(byte[] ba)
{
StringBuilder hex = new StringBuilder(ba.Length * 2);
foreach (byte b in ba)
hex.AppendFormat("{0:x2}", b);
return hex.ToString();
}
I modified the php to this
<?php
include('Crypt/RSA.php');
if (isset($_POST['Password']))
{
$Password = $_POST['Password'];
$crypttext = pack("H*",$Password);
echo $cryptext;
$rsa = new Crypt_RSA();
$rsa->loadKey(file_get_contents('key.priv')); // Added file_get_contents() which fixed the key loading
$rsa->setEncryptionMode(CRYPT_RSA_ENCRYPTION_PKCS1); // Added this which is essential thank you guys/gals
$decryptedText =$rsa->decrypt($cryptext);
echo "Pass = >" . $decryptedText; // gives unsual data. This needs to be converted from binary data to base64string I think
echo "Pass = >" . base64_encode($decryptedText); // gives no data.
echo "Pass = >" . base64_decode($decryptedText); // gives no data.
}
?>
I searched around and tried several things to convert back to text and I have tried base64_encode() and base64_decode() but I get nothing and otherwise I get gobbledey gook.
The final solution was to use imap_binary($decryptedText) to convert back.
Edit :
It has since been brought to my attention that a better way of doing this would be to replace 2 things
C#
plainBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(data);
Changed to
plainBytes = Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(data);
and PHP
imap_binary($decryptedText)
Changed to
utf8_decode($decryptedText)
im trying to crypt string in php decrypt it in vb.net
same key (xml converted to pem)
here is my php code

$pub_key=fread($fp,8192);
fclose($fp);

$hh = $source;
openssl_public_encrypt($hh,$crypttext,$pub_key);
$crypttext = base64_encode($crypttext);
echo "String crypted: " . $crypttext;
and here is my vb.net code

End Function
any encrypted string giving 慂敳獬祡桥䀡㌣㈱
but encrypt in vb.net and decrypt in php works fine
never mind
solved it by using utf8 instaid of unicode
change
Dim uEncode As New UnicodeEncoding()
to

I am trying to write a function in PHP and in VB.NET that uses Triple DES to pass in BOTH directions encrypted data. The problem, is that when I try to decrypt a string encrypted in VB.NET using PHP, I get an error message saying that the block size of the IV must match.
The class I wrote in VB.NET, is as follows and is fully functional as it will encrypt and decrypt its own blocks flawlessly.

Imports System.Security.Cryptography

Dim key As Byte()
Public Property Password() As String

key = System.Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(value)
End Set
End Property

encStream.Write(dataBytes, 0, dataBytes.Length)
encStream.FlushFinalBlock()
' IV and Ciphered string are each Base64'd and seperated by a comma, then the whole result is Base64'd
Return Convert.ToBase64String(System.Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(Convert.ToBase64String(method.IV) & "," & Convert.ToBase64String(ms.ToArray)))
End Function
Public Function Decrypt(data As String) As String

Else
Return False
End If
End Function

Example usage of the above class
Dim c As New Cipher
c.Password = "12345"
Dim encrypted As String = c.Encrypt("hello")
Debug.Print(encrypted)
Dim decrypted As String = c.Decrypt(encrypted)
Debug.Print(decrypted)
Now I also have the following PHP code which ALSO works (by itself)
class Cipher {
private $iv;
private $securekey;
function __construct($key) {
$this->securekey = $key;
}
function encrypt($string) {
$this->iv = mcrypt_create_iv(mcrypt_get_iv_size(MCRYPT_3DES, MCRYPT_MODE_CFB),MCRYPT_DEV_RANDOM);
$encrypted = base64_encode(mcrypt_encrypt(MCRYPT_3DES, $this->securekey, $string, MCRYPT_MODE_CFB, $this->iv));
return base64_encode(base64_encode($this->iv) . ',' . $encrypted);
}
function decrypt($string) {
$decrypt = base64_decode($string);
if(strpos($decrypt,',') > 0) {
$decrypt = explode(',', $decrypt);
$this->iv = base64_decode($decrypt[0]);
return trim(mcrypt_decrypt(MCRYPT_3DES, $this->securekey, base64_decode($decrypt[1]), MCRYPT_MODE_CFB, $this->iv));
} else {
return false;
}
}
}
PHP Example Usage
$c = new Cipher("12345");
$encrypted = $c->encrypt("hello");
echo 'Encrypted: ' . $encrypted . '<br />';
$decrypted = $c->decrypt($encrypted);
echo 'Decrypted: ' . $decrypted . '<br />';
$vb = "MwBOAEoAOQBjAEgAcQAyAC8ASABzAD0ALABmAEUAOQBaAHYAVwBzAFUAYQB3AFYARwBGAHUANABLAGUAVgB3AFcAaABRAD0APQA=";
echo 'VB.NET Dec: ' . $c->decrypt($vb);
What I have included above in the PHP usage, is the Base64 string made with VB.NET that decodes PERFECTLY in VB.NET as the variable $vb.
This is driving me absolutely batty, as the code is correct, and functional -- in both cases -- so what am I missing and can you point out / fix the problem. I do not wish to use Rijndael, or explore other cipher methods, as this one is well established that works across multiple devices natively (iOS, Android, Windows, Linux, etc.).
Since no one was able to provide a fully functional BI-DIRECTIONAL solution, I have taken the liberty to provide one for the community on this article.
The problem, is that PHP does not conform to the standards by forcing the strings to be padded in order to match. Presently, there is no known way to reliably pass the IV if randomly generated between .NET and PHP (if you do discover how, or this changes, please feel free to revise this).
Following is the COMPLETE solution for encrypting data using Triple DES in a manner that is compatible with .NET and PHP which allows for bi-directional Triple DES encrypted communication. This method is also compatible with Java, Delphi, Objective-C, and many other languages, however such code is not going to be supplied here as that is not a solution to the posted question.

I did what I could to make both classes usability level identical as the languages would allow naturally. Since PHP does not allow overloading functions, I had to use the password as an optional parameter, which is a string value. The VB.NET solution has an additional override that allows you to pass the byte value of the password string on encrypt/decrypt functions. The example code provided to show the usage for each, shows the most simplistic form of instantiating the object which both classes allow for setting the password on object creation.
For anyone else out there that was bashing their brains trying to find a WORKING bi-directional solution for Triple DES (and did not want to be forced into the box that everyone seems to be pointing to -- Rijndael), then this solution is for you, and you can stop banging your head against the wall.

For PHP 7+ mccrypt wont work, so here the solution for encrypt and decrypt using the library phpseclib:
$des = new \phpseclib\Crypt\TripleDES(\phpseclib\Crypt\TripleDES::MODE_ECB);
$key = YOURKEY;
$p = md5(utf8_encode($key),TRUE);
$p .= substr($p,0,8);
$p - $key;
$des->setKey($p);
$phpEncrypted = $des->encrypt("Encrypted using PHP");
$vbEncrypted = "5Ittyr0+jiI7QQmPrvSVnP3s2CeoTJmF"; // Encrypted using VB.NET
echo "PHP Encrypted: " . $phpEncrypted . '<br />';
echo "VB Encrypted: " . $vbEncrypted . '<br />';
echo "PHP Encrypted (decrypted result): " . $des->decrypt(base64_decode($phpEncrypted)) . '<br />';
echo "VB Encrypted (decrypted result): " . $des->decrypt(base64_decode($vbEncrypted)) . '<br />';
At first i thought it was the padding since mcrypt uses zero padding but i changed the php to use PKCS7 and get the same exact results
Can anyone help? I think it has something to do with the padding in the php

The problems in your two pieces of code are:
Use Rijndael-128 with a key and block size of 16 bytes / 128 bit in both the .NET and the PHP code. For Rijndael-256, your code generates an IV with the wrong length. And I don't know how to use AES-256 in PHP (key length of 32 bytes / 256 bits, block size of 16 bytes / 128 bit).
Use of MD5: In the PHP code, add a second parameter true to the md5() function (in two places) so the result is binary data and not a hexadecimal string.
In the encrypt() function in your PHP code, replace the variable $str with $decrypted (in two places). $str is never assigned a value and never used, so the padding has no effect.
If you fix these problems, then both programs will return the result:
Encrypted: /DMkj7BL9Eu2LMxKhdGT+A==
I haven't tried to decrypt it.
For starters the 2 bits of code will create different initialization vectors (PHP is using sha256, and .net md5). And you're not truncating the PHP output by then first null char. There are several potential char set issues in the code too.
