I'm trying to implement AES encryption in swift. The encryption decryption for Android and C# is working properly. I need to implement it in swift. It's current code for android and C# is followed by this.
I tried to use
But none of it work. When I send the encrypted string on server it's not been decrypted.
Any help will be appreciated
Be sure to use the same parameters which seem to be AES with CBC mode with iv, PKCS5Padding (actually PKCS#7) padding and a 16-byte (128-bit) key.
PKCS#5 padding and PKCS#7 padding are essentially the same, sometimes for historic reasons PKCS#5 padding is specified for use with AES but the actual padding is PKCS#7.
Make sure the encodings of the key, iv and encrypted data all match. Hex dump them on both platforms to ensure they are identical. Encryption functions are not difficult to use, if all the input parameters are correct the output will be correct.
To make this more secure the iv should be random bytes and prepended to the encrypted data for use during decryption.
The Cross platform AES encryption uses a 256-bit key so will not work as-is.
Example:
Swift 2
// operation: kCCEncrypt or kCCDecrypt
func testCrypt(data data:[UInt8], keyData:[UInt8], ivData:[UInt8], operation:Int) -> [UInt8]? {
let cryptLength = size_t(data.count+kCCBlockSizeAES128)
var cryptData = [UInt8](count:cryptLength, repeatedValue:0)
let keyLength = size_t(kCCKeySizeAES128)
let algoritm: CCAlgorithm = UInt32(kCCAlgorithmAES128)
let options: CCOptions = UInt32(kCCOptionPKCS7Padding)
var numBytesEncrypted :size_t = 0
let cryptStatus = CCCrypt(CCOperation(operation),
algoritm,
options,
keyData, keyLength,
ivData,
data, data.count,
&cryptData, cryptLength,
&numBytesEncrypted)
if UInt32(cryptStatus) == UInt32(kCCSuccess) {
cryptData.removeRange(numBytesEncrypted..<cryptData.count)
} else {
print("Error: \(cryptStatus)")
}
return cryptData;
}
let message = "Don´t try to read this text. Top Secret Stuff"
let messageData = Array(message.utf8)
let keyData = Array("12345678901234567890123456789012".utf8)
let ivData = Array("abcdefghijklmnop".utf8)
let encryptedData = testCrypt(data:messageData, keyData:keyData, ivData:ivData, operation:kCCEncrypt)!
let decryptedData = testCrypt(data:encryptedData, keyData:keyData, ivData:ivData, operation:kCCDecrypt)!
var decrypted = String(bytes:decryptedData, encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding)!
print("message: \(message)");
print("messageData: \(NSData(bytes:messageData, length:messageData.count))");
print("keyData: \(NSData(bytes:keyData, length:keyData.count))");
print("ivData: \(NSData(bytes:ivData, length:ivData.count))");
print("encryptedData: \(NSData(bytes:encryptedData, length:encryptedData.count))");
print("decryptedData: \(NSData(bytes:decryptedData, length:decryptedData.count))");
print("decrypted: \(String(bytes:decryptedData,encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding)!)");
Output:

AES encryption in CBC mode with a random IV (Swift 3+)
The iv is prefixed to the encrypted data
aesCBC128Encrypt will create a random IV and prefixed to the encrypted code.
aesCBC128Decrypt will use the prefixed IV during decryption.
Inputs are the data and key are Data objects. If an encoded form such as Base64 if required convert to and/or from in the calling method.
The key should be exactly 128-bits (16-bytes), 192-bits (24-bytes) or 256-bits (32-bytes) in length. If another key size is used an error will be thrown.
PKCS#7 padding is set by default.
This example requires Common Crypto
It is necessary to have a bridging header to the project:
#import <CommonCrypto/CommonCrypto.h>
Add the Security.framework to the project.
This is example, not production code.

decryptData: <636c6561 72446174 61303132 33343536>
Notes:
One typical problem with CBC mode example code is that it leaves the creation and sharing of the random IV to the user. This example includes generation of the IV, prefixed the encrypted data and uses the prefixed IV during decryption. This frees the casual user from the details that are necessary for CBC mode.
For security the encrypted data also should have authentication, this example code does not provide that in order to be small and allow better interoperability for other platforms.
Also missing is key derivation of the key from a password, it is suggested that PBKDF2 be used is text passwords are used as keying material.
For robust production ready multi-platform encryption code see RNCryptor.

let encryptedPassword128 = aes128?.encrypt(string: password)
aes128?.decrypt(data: encryptedPassword128)
let encryptedPassword256 = aes256?.encrypt(string: password)

I also created a Swift Package based on it:
my two cents:
swift 4 / xcode 9 extension for Data:
extension Data{
func aesEncrypt( keyData: Data, ivData: Data, operation: Int) -> Data {
let dataLength = self.count
let cryptLength = size_t(dataLength + kCCBlockSizeAES128)
var cryptData = Data(count:cryptLength)
let keyLength = size_t(kCCKeySizeAES128)
let options = CCOptions(kCCOptionPKCS7Padding)
var numBytesEncrypted :size_t = 0
let cryptStatus = cryptData.withUnsafeMutableBytes {cryptBytes in
self.withUnsafeBytes {dataBytes in
ivData.withUnsafeBytes {ivBytes in
keyData.withUnsafeBytes {keyBytes in

}
}
}
if UInt32(cryptStatus) == UInt32(kCCSuccess) {
cryptData.removeSubrange(numBytesEncrypted..<cryptData.count)
} else {
print("Error: \(cryptStatus)")
}
return cryptData;
}
}
func testAES() -> Bool {
let message = "secret message"
let key = "key890123456"
let ivString = "abcdefghijklmnop" // 16 bytes for AES128
let messageData = message.data(using:String.Encoding.utf8)!
let keyData = key.data(using: .utf8)!
let ivData = ivString.data(using: .utf8)!
let encryptedData = messageData.aesEncrypt( keyData:keyData, ivData:ivData, operation:kCCEncrypt)
let decryptedData = encryptedData.aesEncrypt( keyData:keyData, ivData:ivData, operation:kCCDecrypt)
let decrypted = String(bytes:decryptedData, encoding:String.Encoding.utf8)!
return message == decrypted
}
I have used CryptoSwift.
First I have install cryptoSwift in the pod file. Then in my view controller I have import CryptoSwift.
Here is the code that I have used:
let value = "xyzzy". // This is the value that we want to encrypt
let key = "abc". // This is the key
let EncryptedValue = try! value.aesEncrypt(key: key)
let DecryptedValue = try! EncryptedValue.aesDecrypt(key: key)
Then, using String extension:
extension String {
func aesEncrypt(key: String) throws -> String {
var result = ""
do {
let key: [UInt8] = Array(key.utf8) as [UInt8]
let aes = try! AES(key: key, blockMode: .ECB, padding: .pkcs5) // AES128 .ECB pkcs7
let encrypted = try aes.encrypt(Array(self.utf8))
result = encrypted.toBase64()!
print("AES Encryption Result: \(result)")
} catch {
print("Error: \(error)")
}
return result
}
func aesDecrypt(key: String) throws -> String {
var result = ""
do {
let encrypted = self
let key: [UInt8] = Array(key.utf8) as [UInt8]
let aes = try! AES(key: key, blockMode: .ECB, padding: .pkcs5) // AES128 .ECB pkcs7
let decrypted = try aes.decrypt(Array(base64: encrypted))
result = String(data: Data(decrypted), encoding: .utf8) ?? ""
print("AES Decryption Result: \(result)")
} catch {
print("Error: \(error)")
}
return result
}
}
In this I have not used iv and encrypted.toBase64() to encrypt like result = encrypted.toBase64()! in place of result = encrypted.toStringHex()! in encryption
and similar in decryption let decrypted = try aes.decrypt(Array(base64: encrypted)) in place of let decrypted = try aes.decrypt(Array(Hex: encrypted))
I know this is an old question.
Since 2019 You can use CryptoKit from Apple. It introduced AES.GCM
import CryptoKit
let key = SymmetricKey(size: .bits256)
let data = Data(...)
do {
let enc = try AES.GCM.seal(data, using: key).combined!
let dec = try AES.GCM.open(try AES.GCM.SealedBox(combined: data), using: key))
} catch {...}
Also I've made a useful swift package with extension to CryptoKit to allow AES.CBC encryption (https://github.com/gal-yedidovich/CryptoExtensions)
Then, just import CBC
import CryptoKit
import CBC
let data: Data = ... //some data to encrypt
let iv: Data = ... //an initial vector
let key: SymmetricKey = ... //encryption key
//one shot crypto operation
do {
let encrypted = try AES.CBC.encrypt(data, using: key, iv: iv)
let decrypted = try AES.CBC.decrypt(encrypted, using: key, iv: iv)
} catch {...}
//using cipher
do {
let cipher = try AES.CBC.Cipher(.encrypt, using: key, iv: iv)
var enc = Data()
enc += try cipher.update(...)
enc += try cipher.update(...)
enc += try cipher.finalize()
} catch {...}
This is easy to use the extension and also supported all platforms for decryption as well.
import CryptoSwift
extension String {
func aesEncrypt() throws -> String {
do {
let encrypted = try AES(key: "your_encryption_key", iv: "your_iv", padding: .pkcs7).encrypt([UInt8](self.data(using: .utf8)!))
return Data(encrypted).base64EncodedString()
} catch {
}
return ""
}
func aesDecrypt() throws -> String {
do {
guard let data = Data(base64Encoded: self) else { return "" }
let decrypted = try AES(key: "your_encryption_key", iv: "your_iv", padding: .pkcs7).decrypt([UInt8](data))
return decrypted
} catch {
}
return ""
}
}
I was looking for AES encryption ECB Mode with PKC5 padding without using any pod. I found a proper way to solve my problem by gathering different information. Maybe it could be helpful for others.
Note: There is no difference between PKCS5 and PKCS7 padding.

Use it like this:
let encryptedData = encryptionAESModeECB(messageData: data, key: "keyString")
let decryptedData = decryptionAESModeECB(messageData: data, key: "keyString")
Found a nice library named RNCryptor implemented in swift language for AES encryption/ decryption.
Installation can be done with Cocoapods or Carthage. Here is the sample code for encryption and decryption.
// Encryption
let data = "sample data string".data(using: String.Encoding.utf8)
let password = "Secret password"
let encryptedData = RNCryptor.encrypt(data: data, withPassword: password)
// Decryption
do {
let originalData = try RNCryptor.decrypt(data: encryptedData, withPassword: password)
// ...
} catch {
print(error)
}
For anyone who cannot transform array of bytes to a String
String(data: Data(decrypted), encoding: .utf8)
This is my example string extension
extension String {
func decryptAES(key: String, iv: String) -> String {
do {
let encrypted = self
let key = Array(key.utf8)
let iv = Array(iv.utf8)
let aes = try AES(key: key, blockMode: CTR(iv: iv), padding: .noPadding)
let decrypted = try aes.decrypt(Array(hex: encrypted))
return String(data: Data(decrypted), encoding: .utf8) ?? ""
} catch {
return "Error: \(error)"
}
}
}
For someone also met issues when trying to decrypt files from JAVA, here's another approach that without fixed key length:
func encryptAES(data: Data, key: Data, iv: Data) -> Data? {
var buffer = [UInt8](repeating: 0, count: data.count + kCCBlockSizeAES128)
var numBytesEncrypted = 0
let status = key.withUnsafeBytes { keyUnsafeRawBufferPointer in
iv.withUnsafeBytes { ivUnsafeRawBufferPointer in
data.withUnsafeBytes { dataUnsafeRawBufferPointer in
CCCrypt(
CCOperation(kCCEncrypt),
CCAlgorithm(kCCAlgorithmAES128),
CCOptions(kCCOptionPKCS7Padding),
keyUnsafeRawBufferPointer.baseAddress,
key.count,
ivUnsafeRawBufferPointer.baseAddress,
dataUnsafeRawBufferPointer.baseAddress,
data.count,
&buffer,
buffer.count,
&numBytesEncrypted
)
}
}
}
guard status == kCCSuccess else {
print("Error: \(status)")
return nil
}
let encryptedData = Data(bytes: buffer, count: numBytesEncrypted)
return encryptedData
}
