openssl_encrypt/decrypt

openssl_encrypt: Encrypt the data
openssl_decrypt: Decrypt the data

• Supported PHP Versions (PHP 5 >= 5.3.0, PHP 7)

The Syntax

string openssl_encrypt ( string $data , string $method , string $key [, int $options = 0 [, string $iv = "" [, string $tag = NULL [, string $aad = "" [, int $tag_length = 16 ]]]]] )

string openssl_decrypt ( string $data , string $method , string $key [, int $options = 0 [, string $iv = "" [, string $tag = "" [, string $aad = "" ]]]] )

• data: The plaintext message data to be encrypted.
• method: The cipher method, see openssl_get_cipher_methods() for a list of potential values.
• key : User supplied key
• IV: The Initialization Vector
• AAD: For Authenticated encryption
• Returns: Returns the encrypted string on success or FALSE on failure.

Since block cipher modes of operation require an IV which is random and unpredictable, or at least unique for each message encrypted with a given key. Different block cipher modes have different IV length requirement for example

Cipher Mode	IV Length
aes-128-cbc	16
camellia-192-ofb	16
cast5-cbc	8
bf-cbc	8
aes-256-gcm	12

aes-128-cbc encrypt/decrypt example

Note: AES-CBC mode vulnerable to padding oracle attacks, Kindly Don't use these

<?php  
  
// php AES-128-CBC Encryption Example  
$plaintext = "Hello 8gwifi.org";  
$key = "myverystrongpasswordo32bitleng";  
  
$ivlen = openssl_cipher_iv_length($cipher="aes-128-cbc");  
  
//Generate Random IV  
$iv = openssl_random_pseudo_bytes($ivlen);  
$ciphertext_raw = openssl_encrypt($plaintext, $cipher, $key, $options=OPENSSL_RAW_DATA, $iv);  
$ciphertext = base64_encode( $iv.$ciphertext_raw );  
  
echo "Encrypted Text : $ciphertext \n";  
  
//php AES-128-CBC Dec Example  
$c = base64_decode("$ciphertext");  
$ivlen = openssl_cipher_iv_length($cipher="aes-128-cbc");  
$iv = substr($c, 0, $ivlen);  
$ciphertext_raw = substr($c, $ivlen);  
  
$original_plaintext = openssl_decrypt($ciphertext_raw, $cipher, $key, $options=OPENSSL_RAW_DATA, $iv);  
echo "Decrypted Text: $original_plaintext\n";  
  
?>

The above example will output something similar to:

$ /usr/bin/php aes-128-cbc.php

Decrypted Text: Hello 8gwifi.org

Process finished with exit code 0
