Re: [openssl-users] OpenSSL error message when decrypting Ethereum encrypted private key

Hi Matt, >If you *are* using 1.1.0 then the default digest was changed between 1.0.2 and 1.1.0. Awesome thought, but I'm also using 1.0.2: $ openssl version OpenSSL 1.0.2k-fips 26 Jan 2017 (I also tried adding -md md5 to the previous command, but I got the same error message). Thanks, Chris

>Any chance this is data corruption? Brilliant! You caught me. Although this key is encrypted I wasn't comfortable making it public on the interwebs. So, I randomly changed several of the characters. If I run openssl base64 -d... on the *actual* key it does indeed begin with Salted__: $

Hi Rich, Thank you very much for the reply. I get the same error message using -aes256 as -aes-256-cbc /usr/bin/openssl enc -d -aes256 -a -in enc_private_key.txt -out recovered.key -pass pass:TheBig7ebowski bad decrypt 140383648536480:error:0606506D:digital envelope

Re: [openssl-users] OpenSSL error message when decrypting Ethereum encrypted private key

For CBC the encrypted text will be a multiple of the cipher size. So your use of CBC is wrong. The quoted post uses aes256; you were using aes-cbc -- openssl-users mailing list To unsubscribe: https://mta.openssl.org/mailman/listinfo/openssl-users

[openssl-users] OpenSSL error message when decrypting Ethereum encrypted private key

I'm trying to help someone recover his password for an older format ethereum encrypted private key (EPK). My plan has been to use his best guess at the password to brute force the actual password. The EPK is a 132 character string, and it looks something like this:

Re: [openssl-users] SSL Cert serial number non-uniqueness impact

The combination of (issuer,serial#) is the only way to get a unique identifier for a certificate. Lots of software depends on certs being uniquely identifiable. What happens if that assertion is not true? Some things will break. What? Well, it depends on the software, and which certs are

[openssl-users] SSL Cert serial number non-uniqueness impact

Hi everyone, I read from several sources that the serial number of a cert MUST be unique within a CA. But could someone explain what would happen if the serial number was not unique? Would it cause SSL connections to fail in some manner? I think I'm a little unclear about the "purpose" of the
