Java to JS and JS to Java encryption using cryptojs

Question

I got on this post a couple of weeks ago and worked perfectly: Compatible AES algorithm for Java and Javascript

Now, I need to do the reverse operation, but once in java, I am getting this exception:

javax.crypto.BadPaddingException: Given final block not properly padded
at com.sun.crypto.provider.CipherCore.doFinal(CipherCore.java:966)
at com.sun.crypto.provider.CipherCore.doFinal(CipherCore.java:824)
at com.sun.crypto.provider.AESCipher.engineDoFinal(AESCipher.java:436)
at javax.crypto.Cipher.doFinal(Cipher.java:2165)

This is my "reverse" operation I did in JavaScript:

var rkEncryptionKey = CryptoJS.enc.Base64.parse('u/Gu5posvwDsXUnV5Zaq4g==');
var rkEncryptionIv = CryptoJS.enc.Base64.parse('5D9r9ZVzEYYgha93/aUK2w==');

function encryptString(stringToEncrypt) {
    var utf8Stringified = CryptoJS.enc.Utf8.parse(stringToEncrypt);
    var encrypted = CryptoJS.AES.encrypt(utf8Stringified.toString(), rkEncryptionKey, {mode: CryptoJS.mode.CBC, padding: CryptoJS.pad.Pkcs7, iv: rkEncryptionIv});
    return CryptoJS.enc.Base64.parse(encrypted.toString()).toString();
}

I though this would be all?

[EDIT]

Encrypted string is the following: {"company_name":"asdfasdfasd","customer_name":"asdfasdfasdfasdf","phone_number":"asdfasdfasdfasdf","email":"asdfasdfasdfasdfads"}

When doing the encrypt / decrypt from java to java it works, when doing so from java to javascript, also works, but from javascript to java, not working.

Java Code

public String toJson(final String encrypted) {
    try {
        SecretKey key = new SecretKeySpec(Base64.decodeBase64("u/Gu5posvwDsXUnV5Zaq4g=="), "AES");
        AlgorithmParameterSpec iv = new IvParameterSpec(Base64.decodeBase64("5D9r9ZVzEYYgha93/aUK2w=="));
        byte[] decodeBase64 = Base64.decodeBase64(encrypted);

        Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding");
        cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, key, iv);

        return new String(cipher.doFinal(decodeBase64), "UTF-8");
    } catch (Exception e) {
        throw new RuntimeException("This should not happen in production.", e);
    }
}

Here is an example that worked for me

Change

return CryptoJS.enc.Base64.parse(encrypted.toString()).toString();

to

return encrypted.ciphertext.toString(CryptoJS.enc.Base64);

The encrypted object usually stringifies into an OpenSSL format which might also contain the salt. If you're only interested in the actual ciphertext, then you need to stringify the ciphertext property.

Note that toString() takes an optional encoding function. Use the one that you need.

I no longer get the exception, but once converted, the string does not match the js encrypted one, which is a JSON string. The result is a bunch of numbers / letters

I don't see where a JSON string might come from. Doesn't the absence of an exception tell you that the decryption worked?

P. Lalonde Over a year ago

the function encryptString is called after a JSON.stringify(obj), so I know the source to be encrypted is JSON, I am expecting the reverse operation to give me back a JSON string, but it's not the case.

Completely sorry, this is the right thing, I compared the wrong conversion strings.
