Pure Python read/write encryption/decryption of encrypted OpenSSL 1.1.1 files
Project description
openssl_enc_compat
Pure Python 2.7 and 3.x library that is compatible with OpenSSL 1.1.1+ encryption and decryption. https://github.com/clach04/openssl_enc_compat
This is intended to be used a library, rather than as a command line tool. Can encrypt/decrypt raw binary and base64 encoded content. Only supports aes-256-cbc with salt using pbkdf2. pbkdf2 iterations defaults to 10,000 to match OpenSSL default but can be specified.
Also checkout:
- https://github.com/The-Crocop/pyaes256 - lots of dependencies with a nice API but limited to utf-8 data
- https://github.com/EbryxLabs/opencrypt - Python 3 only with a filename only API (and command line tools)
- https://github.com/Madhava-mng/openssltool - Python 3 only wapper around openssl command line tool
Sample
from openssl_enc_compat.cipher import OpenSslEncDecCompat
# echo hello| openssl enc -e aes-256-cbc -salt -pbkdf2 -iter 10000 -in - -base64 -out - -pass pass:password
openssl_crypted_base64_text = 'U2FsdGVkX18NXhFhTlAyvM2jXPu+hhsT344TvO0yLYk=' # base64
openssl_crypted_base64_text = b'Salted__\r^\x11aNP2\xbc\xcd\xa3\\\xfb\xbe\x86\x1b\x13\xdf\x8e\x13\xbc\xed2-\x89' # raw binary
password = b'password'
print('openssl_crypted_base64_text: %r' % openssl_crypted_base64_text)
print('password: %r' % password)
cipher = OpenSslEncDecCompat(password) # guess/default
plaintext = cipher.decrypt(openssl_crypted_base64_text) # guesses if base64 encoded or note
print('plaintext: %r' % plaintext)
Quick demo:
python -m openssl_enc_compat.cipher
Run tests
python -m openssl_enc_compat.tests.testsuite -v
