Hi yes, I didn't use the IV for my test case ----- Original Message ----- From: Vishal Mahajan To: security-dev@xml.apache.org Sent: Thursday, September 27, 2007 1:55 PM Subject: Re: About Wrap Key
When using TripleDES the resulting cipher text is prefixed by an Initialization Vector (IV) which is probably different for the two different wrap operations. Did you try and unwrap/decrypt the wrapped key in the two cases and see if that results back in the same key?
