cipher.encrypt(plaintext) bring to TypeError

[wwwshellcodeit]

Hi,

Issue: cipher.encrypt need bytes and not string.

The return line on encrypt function bring to:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "RAU_crypto.py", line 327, in <module>
    mode_Post()
  File "RAU_crypto.py", line 285, in mode_Post
    print(upload(TempTargetFolder, Version, payload_filename, url))
  File "RAU_crypto.py", line 201, in upload
    payload_filename
  File "RAU_crypto.py", line 163, in payload
    data += rauPostData_prep(quiet, TempTargetFolder, Version) + "\r\n"
  File "RAU_crypto.py", line 111, in rauPostData_prep
    RAUCipher.encrypt(TempTargetFolder),
  File "RAU_crypto.py", line 76, in encrypt
    return base64.b64encode(cipher.encrypt(plaintext)).decode()
  File "C:\Python36\lib\site-packages\Crypto\Cipher\_mode_cbc.py", line 162, in
encrypt
    c_uint8_ptr(plaintext),
  File "C:\Python36\lib\site-packages\Crypto\Util\_raw_api.py", line 196, in c_u
int8_ptr
    raise TypeError("Object type %s cannot be passed to C code" % type(data))
TypeError: Object type <class 'str'> cannot be passed to C code

Anyway I solved such issue changing from:
return base64.b64encode(cipher.encrypt(plaintext)).decode()
To:
return base64.b64encode(cipher.encrypt(plaintext.encode('utf-8'))).decode()

Thanks
