Code that works:
#!/usr/bin/python3
import hashlib
from Crypto.Cipher import AES
from Crypto import Random
h = hashlib.new('sha256')
h.update(b'my key')
key = h.digest()
iv = Random.new().read(AES.block_size)
cipher = AES.new(key, AES.MODE_CFB, iv)
txt = 'hello world'
msg = cipher.encrypt(txt)
print(msg)
cipher = AES.new(key, AES.MODE_CFB, iv) # Use *same* IV!
origtxt = cipher.decrypt(msg)
print(origtxt)
Also note that manually deriving a symmetric secret using SHA256 is an
INCREDIBLY bad idea. Have a look at PBKDF2.
Best regards,
Joe
