TripleDES Java Encryprion to Javascript Decryption

I am using Java to encrypt a text payload with Triple DES. First I create an ephemeral key that I will use for encrypting the payload:
private byte[] createEphemeralKey() throws Exception {
KeyGenerator keygen = KeyGenerator.getInstance("DESede");
keygen.init(168);
return keygen.generateKey().getEncoded();
}
Then I encrypt my payload with said key:
private String encryptTripleDES(byte[] ephemeralKey, String payload) throws Exception {
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("DESede/ECB/NoPadding");
cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, new SecretKeySpec(ephemeralKey, "DESede"));
byte[] plainTextBytes = payload.getBytes();
byte[] cipherText = cipher.doFinal(plainTextBytes);
return Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(cipherText);
}
Also need a padding function to ensure the data length is divisable by 8:
private String adjustPadding(String input, int blockSize) {
int len = input.length() % blockSize;
int paddingLength = (len == 0) ? 0 : (blockSize - len);
while (paddingLength > 0) {
input += "F";
paddingLength--;
}
return input;
}
And here is my process end to end:
String data = "Marnus"
byte[] = ephemeralKey = createEphemeralKey();
String adjustedData = adjustPadding (data,8);
String encryptedPayload = encryptTripleDES(ephemeralKey, adjustedData);
String encodedKey = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(ephemeralKey)
So I take the 2 variables encryptedPayload and encodedKey, that are both Base64 encoded string, and send it off via HTTP to node express app.
In the Javascript side of things, I use node-forge - Here is the part of my express app that does the decryption:
let nodeBuffer = Buffer.from(data, 'base64')
let input = forge.util.createBuffer(nodeBuffer.toString('binary'))
// 3DES key and IV sizes
let keySize = 24;
let ivSize = 8;
let derivedBytes = forge.pbe.opensslDeriveBytes(ephemeralKey, null, keySize + ivSize);
let buffer = forge.util.createBuffer(derivedBytes);
let key = buffer.getBytes(keySize)
let iv = buffer.getBytes(ivSize)
let decipher = forge.cipher.createDecipher('3DES-ECB', key)
decipher.start({iv: iv})
decipher.update(input)
console.log('decipher result', decipher.finish())
let decryptedResult = decipher.output.data;
Here is an Triples DES example in the node-forge docs:
A few notes:
I create a node-forge buffer from a regular buffer since I don't have a input file like the examples gives. Here is how the docs states one should create one buffer from the other:
*I use base64 as that is what I used in the java side to encode the data that was sent.
Then, I dont have a salt so I left the 2'nd param null in opensslDeriveBytes as specified in the docs I should do.
Thirdly, I am also not sure if my keysize of 24 is correct?
My results
So doing an end to end test yields the following:
In my Java app, the test data was "Marnus", the encryptedPayload was ez+RweSAd+4= and the encodedKey was vCD9mBnWHPEBiQ0BGv7gc6GUCOoBgLCu.
Then in my javascript code data was obviously ez+RweSAd+4=(encryptedPayload) and the ephemeralKey was vCD9mBnWHPEBiQ0BGv7gc6GUCOoBgLCu(encodedKey).
After the decryption ran, the value of decryptedResult was ©ýÕ?µ{', which is obviously just garbage since it was not encoded yet, but I cant figure out which encoding to use?
I tried using forge.util.encode64(decipher.output.data), but that just gave me qf3VP7UYeyc=, which is not right.
For what it's worth, here is the type that decipher.output

With a lot more tweaking and testing different options, I got it working - and the good news is I managed to get it all working with the built in crypto library in nodejs (v12.18.4).
First things first, the JAVA side just needs a change to the key size (from 168 to 112), the rest remains the same - see below example as one single method (should be split up in final implementation of course for testability and usability):
//Some data:
String payload = "{\"data\":\"somedata\"}";
// Create Key
KeyGenerator keygen = KeyGenerator.getInstance("DESede");
keygen.init(112);
byte[] ephemeralKey = keygen.generateKey().getEncoded();
// Adjust the data, see adjustPadding method in the question for details.
String data = adjustPadding (payload,8);
// Wil now be "{"data":"somedata"}FFFFF", can just chop off extra in JS if need be. When sending JSON one knows the end of the object will always be "}"
// Do Encrypt
Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("DESede/ECB/NoPadding");
cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, new SecretKeySpec(ephemeralKey, "DESede"));
byte[] plainTextBytes = data.getBytes();
byte[] cipherText = cipher.doFinal(plainTextBytes);
String encryptedPayload = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(cipherText);
//Lastly, Base64 the key so you can transport it too
String encodedKey = Base64.getEncoder().encodeToString(ephemeralKey)
on the Javascript side of things we keep it simple:
// I'm using TS, so change the import if you do plain JS
import crypto = require('crypto')
//need bytes from the base64 payload
let buff = Buffer.from(ephemeralKey, 'base64')
const decipher = crypto.createDecipheriv('des-ede3', buff, null)
decipher.setAutoPadding(false)
let decrypted = decipher.update(data, 'base64', 'utf8')
decrypted += decipher.final('utf8')
console.log(decrypted)
//{"data":"somedata"}FFFFF"

python decrypt a text encrypted in jsencrypt

In a web form the answers (packed in a jsonstring) are encrypted in several steps. First a random key is generated. Second the random key is used for AES encryption of the jsonstring. The random key is encrypted as well. Both are send in the body of a mail.
// Generate Random key
var rand_key = ('0000' + Math.random().toString(36).replace('.', '')).substr(-10);
console.log('rand_key', rand_key)

decrypt(key, text)
I run into a encoding problem. "UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xf7 in position 1: ordinal not in range(128)" The encoding is complicating the issue beyond my capabilities.
My questions:
1. How can I resolve the encoding problem ?
2. How can I make the decryption work ?
Thanks

The issue is more than likely caused by b64decode(text) returning a str that contains values such as \xf7 and then attempting to .encode() those values within your decrypt function. encode will use the default encoding which in this case is ascii. I would personally remove the calls to encode unless you specifically have a reason you are doing so.

Progressive HMAC SHA256 in Objective-C

I need to generate a hash using HMAC SHA256. I am using the following code in JavaScript. I need an equivalent code in Objective-C.
function serialize( obj ) {
return Object.keys(obj).reduce(function(a,k){a.push(k+'='+encodeURIComponent(obj[k]));return a},[]).join('&')
}
var query = {
Action : 'MyAction',
SignatureMethod : 'HmacSHA256',
};
var hmac = CryptoJS.algo.HMAC.create(CryptoJS.algo.SHA256, 'MYVALUE');
var queryString = ['POST', 'm.service.it', '/api/v2', serialize(sorted)].join('\n');
hmac.update(queryString);
query.Signature = CryptoJS.enc.Base64.stringify(hmac.finalize());
How implement this in Objective-C?

HMAC-SHA256 sample code:
+ (NSData *)hmacSha256:(NSData *)dataIn
key:(NSData *)key
{
NSMutableData *macOut = [NSMutableData dataWithLength:CC_SHA256_DIGEST_LENGTH];
CCHmac( kCCHmacAlgSHA256,
key.bytes,
key.length,
dataIn.bytes,
dataIn.length,
macOut.mutableBytes);
return macOut;
}
Notes:
Add Security.framework to the project
Common Crypto must be included:
#import <CommonCrypto/CommonCrypto.h>
This is data in and out, add any conversions to desired representations before and after.
Conversions could be string to data on input and data to Base64 on output:
NSData *data = [#"string" dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSString *string = [data base64EncodedStringWithOptions:0];

Sign Key HMAC SHA1 with Javascript

For some reason I am not able to create a signature from a private key in JS. Using this online help from google:
https://m4b-url-signer.appspot.com/
URL:https://google.maps.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=New+York&client=test
Example Key (fake for the purposes of the exercise)
Key: QNade5DtdJKKZbidTsrIgONupc4=
(Result) Signature: XDsiH5JAY7kJLgA1K2PWlhTdO1k=
However, my javascript code:
var keyString = 'QNade5DtdJKKZbidTsrIgONupc4=';
console.log(keyString)
var urlString = encodeURIComponent('/maps/api/geocode/json?address=New+York&client=test');
console.log(urlString)
// We need to decode private key to binary
var decoded_key_words = CryptoJS.enc.Utf8.parse(keyString);
var decoded_key = CryptoJS.enc.Base64.stringify(decoded_key_words);
console.log(decoded_key);
var signature = CryptoJS.HmacSHA1(decoded_key,urlString);
console.log(signature);
// Encode binary signature to base 64
var encoded_signature = CryptoJS.enc.Base64.stringify(signature);
console.log(encoded_signature)
Gives me a signature:
bOenVNeXI6xI1xlSa77oqGKssyY=
I can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong. Am I decoding base64 incorrectly?

For the record, this worked:
<script src="sha.js"></script>
var url = '/maps/api/geocode/json?address=New+York&client=test';
var key = 'QNade5DtdJKKZbidTsrIgONupc4='
var hmacObj = new jsSHA(url, 'TEXT');
var hmacOutput = hmacObj.getHMAC(key,'B64','SHA-1','B64');
console.log(hmacOutput)
Giving me:
XDsiH5JAY7kJLgA1K2PWlhTdO1k=
