Contrary to some of the other comments here, I'm not certain that Password is indeed being improperly treated as the direct key. I say this because I've been passing random text values into this parameter which would be invalid as hex input. It seems to be hashing the password I provide, using what algorithm I do not know, because otherwise I'd expect it to throw an exception instead of working as expected. That said, I'm using openssl_decrypt() to decrypt data that was only encrypted with openssl_encrypt(). I've not had to try to decrypt data where I do know for certain what the direct key is to know if I have an issue with bad pad blocks or any other exceptions which would indicate a key mismatch. ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 72.24.104.194 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.openssl-encrypt.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/118832 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118832/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118832/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118832/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118832/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118832/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118832/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118832 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/118832 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
