From 7d724677bcb829f436b7d900cc7669ec8e42d511 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: JorySeverijnse Date: Sun, 14 Dec 2025 12:40:55 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Implement secure AES-CBC encryption with external C++ decryption - Replace weak ECB encryption with AES-128-CBC + PKCS7 padding - Implement secure key derivation: SHA256(password + salt) - Add cryptographically secure random IV generation - Create standalone C++ decryptor for external binary decryption - Update stub to require external decryption workflow - Maintain cross-platform compatibility (Linux/Windows) - Add proper error handling and padding validation Security improvements: - AES-128-CBC instead of ECB (prevents pattern analysis) - Random IVs prevent identical plaintext producing identical ciphertext - Password-based key derivation with salt - PKCS7 padding with validation - External decryption prevents embedded keys --- crypt/Cargo.lock | 172 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ crypt/Cargo.toml | 4 +- crypt/src/main.rs | 77 +++++++++++++----- decryptor.cpp | 193 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ stub/Cargo.lock | 3 +- stub/src/main.rs | 29 ++----- 6 files changed, 407 insertions(+), 71 deletions(-) create mode 100644 decryptor.cpp diff --git a/crypt/Cargo.lock b/crypt/Cargo.lock index 0be2db5..dab5ada 100644 --- a/crypt/Cargo.lock +++ b/crypt/Cargo.lock @@ -1,6 +1,16 @@ # This file is automatically @generated by Cargo. # It is not intended for manual editing. -version = 3 +version = 4 + +[[package]] +name = "aead" +version = "0.5.2" +source = "registry+https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index" +checksum = "d122413f284cf2d62fb1b7db97e02edb8cda96d769b16e443a4f6195e35662b0" +dependencies = [ + "crypto-common", + "generic-array", +] [[package]] name = "aes" @@ -9,25 +19,59 @@ source = "registry+https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index" checksum = "433cfd6710c9986c576a25ca913c39d66a6474107b406f34f91d4a8923395241" dependencies = [ "cfg-if", -
