ID: 4932 Updated by: sas Reported By: wico@cnh.nl Status: Closed Bug Type: Scripting Engine problem Assigned To: Comments: You are dealing with _block_ algorithms. All these algorithms deal with blocks of a fixed size. All input and output is aligned to these block sizes. That means that you will have NUL bytes at the end of $decrypt which need to be stripped before you can continue to use that string.Shouldn't php do that instead of the script?
