Hi,
How can I set the EVP padding size to 32byte instead of 16?
I currently have the problem, using aes 256bit, that if I encrypt a 20
or 30
size block it will only encrypt 16bytes instead of the whole part.
That is not what the padding does.
Padding *increases* the encrypted size by 1 to P bytes so it is
a multiple of P bytes total. A padding of 16 would cause encryption
of 20 or 30 bytes to result in an encrypted value of 32 bytes.
What you need to check is:
- Did you pass the right input data size to the encrypt function?
- Did you use a function that actually does padding?
- Did you use a function that encrypts only onedata block (16 bytes
for AES 256)?
- Did you use the correct functions but forget the call that said
that there are no more bytes after your 20 or 30 bytes (until you
do, the code will hold back the 4 or 14 extra bytes until it knows
if it should be followed by more data or padding).
Enjoy
