Description Marcel Meckel 2005-04-23 17:42:07 UTC
Using aespipe to encrypt and decrypt files/streams results in garbage added at the end of decrypted files.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
used "12345678901234567890" (without quotes) as password for en/decrypting

# echo "hello world" > cleartext
# aespipe < cleartext > encrypted
# aespipe -d < encrypted > decrypted
Actual Results:  
# ls -l
-rw-r--r--   1    12 24. Apr 02:32 cleartext
-rw-r--r--   1    16 24. Apr 02:33 decrypted
-rw-r--r--   1    16 24. Apr 02:33 encrypted

As you can see, encrypted and decrypted files are both 4 bytes bigger than the input file.

# hexdump -C cleartext
00000000  68 65 6c 6c 6f 20 77 6f  72 6c 64 0a              |hello world.|
0000000c
# hexdump -C decrypted
00000000  68 65 6c 6c 6f 20 77 6f  72 6c 64 0a 00 00 00 00  |hello world.....|
00000010
# md5sum cleartext encrypted decrypted
6f5902ac237024bdd0c176cb93063dc4  cleartext
303d328cb1c146249bfc89f628db0bd1  encrypted
b70a89725735cfd0776d5c3d7ed5fe34  decrypted

Expected Results:  
md5sum of cleatext and decrypted file should match

# emerge -pv aespipe

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

Comment 1 Marcel Meckel 2005-04-23 18:33:43 UTC
Figured out that aespipe works block oriented so these 00 bytes at the end should be ok
