C# AES Encryption (Large Files)

[N1tro]

Hi guys. Can someone explain why AES encryption with work large files lose or adding some bytes.

Original size must be : 17,9 MB (18 819 479 bytes)

I get : 17,9 MB (18 819 488 bytes)

here code

public static void DataEncrypt(string fileIn, string fileOut)
{
FileStream FILE_In = new FileStream(fileIn, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
FileStream FILE_Out = new FileStream(fileOut, FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write);byte[] TEST_KEY = new byte[]
{0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07, 0x08, 0x09, 0x0A, 0x0B, 0x0C, 0x0D, 0x0E, 0x0F, 0x10};
byte[] TEST_IV = new byte[]
{0x01, 0x02, 0x03, 0x04, 0x05, 0x06, 0x07, 0x08, 0x09, 0x0A, 0x0B, 0x0C, 0x0D, 0x0E, 0x0F, 0x10};Rijndael AES = Rijndael.Create();AES.Key = TEST_KEY;
AES.IV = TEST_IV;CryptoStream cs = new CryptoStream(FILE_Out, AES.CreateEncryptor(), CryptoStreamMode.Write);int bufferLen = 4096;
byte[] buffer = new byte[bufferLen];
int bytesRead;
do
{
bytesRead = FILE_In.Read(buffer, 0, bufferLen);
cs.Write(buffer, 0, bytesRead);
} while (bytesRead != 0);//cs.FlushFinalBlock();
cs.Close();
FILE_In.Close();
}

Thanks Advance.

AES has a fixed block size of 128 bits (16 bytes). So, any time you encrypt something, it will be padded to 16-bytes boundary.

See explanation and examples here: http://www.di-mgt.com.au/cryptopad.html

EDIT: added examples

Thanks for answer.With use PaddingMode.None;

Line 17

DataEncrypt(FILE_In, FILE_Out);

Line 51

cs.Close();

Sorry. Very bad know C# . On Pascal, everything looks much simpler but code slowly work

[deepzero]

as kao said, it needs to be 16-byte aligned. See his link.

additionally, dont forget to close the out-file and free the buffers "buffer", "TEST_KEY" and "TEST_IV"...

Delphi/Pascal shouldn't be slower to do AES encryption than .NET, i would look at whatever implementation you have for bottlenecks or factors that will slow things down.

Just in case you're confused as to what deepzero and Kao mean by 'aligned', the size of the data to be encrypted/decrypted MUST be a multiple of 16 (evenly divisible) otherwise you need to make the buffer larger to account for the 'missing' bytes and add this extra to the size to be encrypted:

Size: 49 = (16 * 3) + 1

becomes

Size: 64 = ((16 * 3) + 1) + 15 // [16 - 1 = 15 for alignment]
