AES encryption in Python, PHP, C#, Java, C++, F#, Ruby, Scala, Node.js
The goal of this project is to provide simple, portable and compatible code (data encrypted in Python can be decrypted in PHP, and so on). The encryption algorithm used is AES in CBC and CFB mode. Other modes are not provided mostly for compatibility reasons (.NET Framework).
Ciphertext authenticity is verified with HMAC SHA256.
The encrypted data contains the salt, iv and mac, in this format: salt[16] + iv[16] + ciphertext[n] + mac[32].
Although the algorithms used are secure, this code hasn't been revised by professional cryptographers, so the use of a better established library may be preferable.
- Python, versions 2.7 - 3.6. Requires PyCryptodome

- Ruby, versions 1.9.2 - 2.5.1
- Scala, versions 2.12.6. Only 128 bit keys are supported before Java 9
- Node.js, versions 5.10.0 - 10.13.0
Encryption:
AES with 128/192/256 bit key, in CBC and CFB mode.
Keys:
Password-based: PBKDF2 with SHA512, 20000 iterations by default.
Key-based: HKDF with SHA256.
Authentication:
HMAC with SHA256.
Python AES-128-CBC (the default) encryption, password-based.
