[SR-Users] Re: Kamailio Crypto module and 3rd party openssl

Hello and thank you! Yes, I did tried that, but unfortunately it doesn't change the way how 3rd party openssl decrypted string looks, the only difference is that in case of fixed IV first 16 symbols of string are the same for any password. For example: Password: kamailio Encoded: QVFMbEZ4MzZpQ1dPNEp3SsEUkYkN9MYynvOmKYddD6A= Decoded: çò<õ"×ÅÇR*u¢þn½Ýkamailio Password: kamailio_qwerty123 Encoded: QVFMbEZ4MzZpQ1dPNEp3Sju/bdBKyeVCEgiRrvpBdGs36brwNM+VqNmAzbeQTiy7 Decoded: çò<õ"×ÅÇR*u¢þn½Ýkamailio_qwerty123 Best regards, Arsenijs ________________________________ From: Henning Westerholt &lt;hw(a)gilawa.com&gt; Sent: Monday, January 9, 2023 16:00 To: Kamailio (SER) - Users Mailing List &lt;sr-users(a)lists.kamailio.org&gt; Cc: Arsenijs Kabihno &lt;a.kabihno(a)dynatech.lv&gt; Subject: RE: Kamailio Crypto module and 3rd party openssl Hello, did you tried to actually set a fixed IV in the cfg? Otherwise it will generate a random IV. https://www.kamailio.org/docs/modules/devel/modules/crypto.html#crypto.p.in… This was added to provider interoperability to other implementations.

The scenario is the following: 1. Encrypt plaintext passwords on kamailio side using crypto_aes_encrypt function of crypto module 2. Decrypt them outside of kamailio using 3rd party tools, such as PHP openssl_decrypt Crypto module parametrs are the following: modparam("crypto", "salt", "") modparam("crypto", "key_derivation", 0) If encryption and decription are handled by kamailio, the initial password matches the decrypted string (initial password -> encrypted string -> decrypted string) For example: sql_query("ds_dburl", "select secret from kamailio_sip_buddies where username='$au'", "secret"); $avp(secret_plain) = $dbr(secret=>[0,0]); //value: 'kamailio' crypto_aes_encrypt("$avp(secret_plain)", "YUZySHVtdlVTYjI0TGJNd3JTeVV0MlRaRWFraFNBRlM=", "$var(encrypted)"); //value: 'qfOqTMoJMgGAherGCqLRRQc4zTlqsEj3MEtcORurFf0=' crypto_aes_decrypt("$avp(secret_plain)", "YUZySHVtdlVTYjI0TGJNd3JTeVV0MlRaRWFraFNBRlM=", "$var(decrypted)"); //value: 'kamailio' But in case I try to decrypt the value of $var(encrypted) using PHP openssl_decrypt or online tool like https://www.devglan.com/online-tools/aes-encryption-decryption, I am getting the result 'kamailio' prepended by 16 random bytes, like: 6“¤›¿Ð+IÊ\ñžïZkamailio or 6�����+I\��Zkamailio I believe this 16 bytes are actually random initialization vector in some encoding. Possibly kamailio is trimming them from result here: https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio/blob/master/src/modules/crypto/crypto_… Moreover, if secret was encrypted using crypto_aes_encrypt and random IV, you can use any IV while decrypting and get 16 different bytes+result Please advice if someone have used crypto module in similar way and what are the possible ways to acheive results consistency
