note 117857 added to mcrypt.ciphers

Interpretability: mcrypt does not support PKCS#7 padding, it uses non-standard and insecure null padding. This means that for interoperability with most other implementations PKCS#7 padding will have to be added prior to encryption and/or removed after decryption. This is a major source of interoperability issues. When interoperating with AES the mcrypt algorithm must be specified as MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128 since AES only supports a block size of 128-bits. There is often confusion that this specifies the key size which it does not. ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 107.131.161.111 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/mcrypt.ciphers.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/117857 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117857/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117857/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117857/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117857/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117857/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117857/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/117857 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/117857 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
