Hi all,
I'm trying to implement a crypto system, and want to make sure I'm doing
something portable, i.e. the ciphertexts I generate can be understood by
any language with openssl functionality. I have a Ruby program that uses
AES-256-CBC to encrypt some data, and I want to make sure I can generate
the same ciphertext using Node.
What mode of operation does crypto.createCipher('aes256') use? I assume
it's not a bare AES function since it can encrypt arbitrary amounts of
data, so it must be using a construction like CBC or CTR. Which one does it
use, and can it be changed by the user?
