Questions tagged [cbc-mode]

CBC Mode is cipher block chaining.

CBC mode was originally specified by NIST in FIPS 81. The standard, issued in 1981, only offers confidentiality. Other modes, such as CCM and GCM, offer authenticated encryption which places an integrity assurance over the encrpyted data.

In CBC mode, an initialization vector must be used in the first block of plaintext. Then each subsequent block of plaintext is XORed with the previous ciphertext block before being encrypted thus making all the blocks dependent on all the previous blocks. This means that in order to find the plaintext of a particular block, you need to know the ciphertext, the key, and the ciphertext for the previous block.

How to detect block cipher mode

How to detect if a message was crypt by CBC or ECB mode? I have made a function who encrypt in AES 128 CBC or ECB randomly, and I do hamming between clear text and cipher text, but seams not correlated to cipher mode. How can I detect the block…

AES decryption padding with PKCS5 Python

I have been trying to implement AES CBC decryption in Python. Since the ciphered text is not a multiple of 16bytes, padding was necessary. Without padding, this error surfaced "TypeError: Odd-length string" But I could not find a proper reference…

How to alter CBC encrypted text to change the message

I'm currently in the process of learning about encryption and i'm hoping to find more clarification on what I learned. Suppose the message "100 dollars should be moved from account 123456 to 555555" was encrypted using aes-128-cbc and a random IV.…

Can I decrypt only part of file encrypted with AES/CBC in Java?

How would I go about this? I have code encrypting a file using AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding in Java and as I understand form this picture: Partial decryption should be possible having part of ciphertext used by preceding block and the key. I have not found…
