    mcrypt_cbc

    (PHP 4, PHP 5)

    mcrypt_cbc — Encrypts/decrypts data in CBC mode

    Warning

    This function was DEPRECATED in PHP 5.5.0, and REMOVED in PHP 7.0.0.

    Alternatives to this function include:

    설명

    string mcrypt_cbc ( int $cipher , string $key , string $data , int $mode [, string $iv ] )
    string mcrypt_cbc ( string $cipher , string $key , string $data , int $mode [, string $iv ] )

    The first prototype is when linked against libmcrypt 2.2.x, the second when linked against libmcrypt 2.4.x or higher. The mode should be either MCRYPT_ENCRYPT or MCRYPT_DECRYPT.

    The PERL libraries have changed a little bit and getting PHP and PERL to mcrypt together can be confusing, so here is a current example;

    PHP
    ===
    <?php
    $string     = 'Some Secret thing I want to encrypt';
    $iv = '12345678';
    $passphrase = '8chrsLng';

    $encryptedString = encryptString($string, $passphrase, $iv);
    // Expect: 7DjnpOXG+FrUaOuc8x6vyrkk3atSiAf425ly5KpG7lOYgwouw2UATw==

    function encryptString($unencryptedText, $passphrase, $iv) {
          $enc = mcrypt_encrypt(MCRYPT_BLOWFISH, $passphrase, $unencryptedText, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, $iv);
      return     base64_encode($enc);
    }
    ?>

    PERL
    ====
    $encryptedString = '7DjnpOXG+FrUaOuc8x6vyrkk3atSiAf425ly5KpG7lOYgwouw2UATw==';
    $iv = '12345678';
    $passphrase = '8chrsLng';

    $string = &decryptPhpEncrypted $encryptedString, $passphrase, $iv;
    # Expect: Some Secret thing I want to encrypt

    sub decryptPhpEncrypted() {
      my ($encryptedString, $passphrase, $iv) = @_;
      my $keysize = length($passphrase);
      use Crypt::CBC;
      $cipher = Crypt::CBC->new( {'key' => $encryptedString,
                                  'cipher'=> 'Blowfish',
                                  'iv' => $iv,
                                  'keysize' => $keysize,
                                  'regenerate_key' => 0,
                                  'padding' => 'null',
                                  'prepend_iv' => 0});

      return $cipher->decrypt($encryptedString);
    }

    if you use blowfish and somehow when you compare strings before and after it was  (usually when it's shorter than 8 or 16 bytes) you might notice the difference, it comes out that this function does not remove padding, as a result you get a bunch of nulls at the end.

    use
    $decrypted = rtrim($decrypted,"\0");
    to fix it

    The following code is to
    encrypt-->encode
    decode-->decrypt

    <?php
    $stuff    ="String to enc/enc/dec/dec =,=,";
    $key="XiTo74dOO09N48YeUmuvbL0E";

    function     nl() {
        echo     "<br/> \n";
    }
    $iv = mcrypt_create_iv (mcrypt_get_block_size (MCRYPT_TripleDES, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC), MCRYPT_DEV_RANDOM);

    // Encrypting
    function encrypt($string, $key) {
            $enc = "";
        global     $iv;
            $enc=mcrypt_cbc (MCRYPT_TripleDES, $key, $string, MCRYPT_ENCRYPT, $iv);

      return     base64_encode($enc);
    }

    // Decrypting
    function decrypt($string, $key) {
            $dec = "";
            $string = trim(base64_decode($string));
        global     $iv;
            $dec = mcrypt_cbc (MCRYPT_TripleDES, $key, $string, MCRYPT_DECRYPT, $iv);
      return     $dec;
    }

    $encrypted = encrypt($stuff, $key);
    $decrypted = decrypt($encrypted, $key);

    echo     "Encrypted is ".$encrypted . nl();
    echo     "Decrypted is ".$decrypted . nl();
    ?>

    Notes on the result
    -o running the script from the command line 1 time
        php script.php works correct
    -o if i ran the script in a loop i.e.

    #!/bin/bash
    for x in `seq 100`
    do
            echo $x
            php script.php >> LOG.text
            sleep 1

    done
    it gets slower after the 10th time
    + inconsistent output
    sometimes correct some with encrypted characters at the end of the decrypted string

    -o Firefox on Linux it decrypts to the original string but appends
        some encryption at the end of the decrypted sting
    -o running the script on the browser from windows on Firefox,
        Google Chrome, IE7 works fine for just few times
        "refresh every few seconds"
        if refresh fast it doesn't work correctly,
        some times returns the decrypted as encrypted!
        some times returns mix of encrypted & decrypted

    I thought if sharing that test for those functions might be
    useful for some body
