PHP function to decrypt a VB.NET RijndaelManaged class encryption - php

Question

I have the following Visual Basic .NET function that is used to encrypt a file. This function is from third party so I cannot alter the original code.
Dim bytes As Byte() = New UnicodeEncoding().GetBytes("12345678")
Dim fileStream1 As FileStream = New System.IO.FileStream(txtInput.Text, FileMode.Create)
Dim rijndaelManaged As RijndaelManaged = New RijndaelManaged
Dim cryptoStream1 As CryptoStream = New CryptoStream(fileStream1, rijndaelManaged.CreateEncryptor(bytes, bytes), CryptoStreamMode.Write)
Dim fileStream2 As FileStream = New System.IO.FileStream(txtOutput.Text, FileMode.Open)
Dim BytesRead As Integer
Dim buffer(4096) As Byte
Do
BytesRead = fileStream2.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length)
If BytesRead > 0 Then
cryptoStream1.Write(buffer, 0, BytesRead)
End If
Loop While BytesRead > 0
I need help creating a PHP to decrypt the above function. Currently I tried to decrypt using this function in PHP:
function decrypt($text) {
$key = mb_convert_encoding("12345678","utf-16");
$iv = mb_convert_encoding("12345678","utf-16");
return rtrim(mcrypt_decrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, $key, $text, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, $iv), "\0");
}
$decrypted=decrypt(file_get_contents("tes_encrypted.xml"));
$nfile = fopen("test.xml", 'w');
fwrite($nfile, $decrypted);
fclose($nfile);
As you can see the encryption function in VB.NET use a predefined Key and IV. It also doesn't specify a padding method. The PHP function generates different result.

Finally I got the answer. Here the correct PHP code to decrypt the VB.NET encryption above:
function unpad($value)
{
$blockSize = mcrypt_get_block_size(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC);
$packing = ord($value[strlen($value) - 1]);
if($packing && $packing < $blockSize)
{
for($P = strlen($value) - 1; $P >= strlen($value) - $packing; $P--)
{
if(ord($value{$P}) != $packing)
{
$packing = 0;
}
}
}
return substr($value, 0, strlen($value) - $packing);
}
function decrypt($text) {
$key= mb_convert_encoding("12345678","ucs-2LE");
$iv= mb_convert_encoding("12345678","ucs-2LE");
return unpad(mcrypt_decrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, $key, $text, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, $iv));
}
