Android Encrypting String using RSA Public key

votes

I am working in a project where I have to encrypt password using RSA public key. I tried many samples and solutions from SO like as follows

  1. Android RSA encryption from public string

  2. RSA using SpongyCastle

But none of the solutions worked in my case unfortunately. I was getting following exceptions repeatedly if i try with any work around

Error Log:

My Requirement:

I have a public key with me and I wanted to encrypt the text entered in the edittext with that public key. For Eg: Password@123 should be encrypted using public key.

Public Key:

public static String PUBLIC_KEY = "-----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY-----\n" +
            "MMDDFDFK43545mmdf499Mdfdasl43ND/GGKLGKL4434safddEcBFfbTZUM517\n" +
            "VDSVFS45fwdGJGGLKGGL332XSA3=d/S/2ETegJPFQ4sjiY7/DsS2o9Gr\n" +
            "asBASF3465243FCDXSDCDxsSFC39NkDiNO2QKNXivAQVpuJeuoDeK\n" +
            "wNGmwDkIsvxBn8u55QpOwvdaRBeLqllJ6xoF6OuwnD0IB4tVDL2MbMVj1U9GtEGL\n" +
            "DJKHSJAH434jjhdds54KkhjbvGJGGGG/Vn4OYNooIWE9uuiyxm2M\n" +
            "AFSDAFXZB546FGHxcvv324FDGJIYTaa346/9xQIDAQAB\n" +
            "-----END RSA PUBLIC KEY-----";

Code Implementations I tried:

Sample I:

  public static String encryptDataRSA(final String data) throws IOException {
        final byte[] dataToEncrypt = data.getBytes();
        byte[] encryptedData = null;

        try {

            PublicKey publicKey = KeyFactory.getInstance("RSA").generatePublic(new X509EncodedKeySpec(RSAUtils.PUBLIC_KEY.getBytes()));

            final Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("RSA");
            cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, publicKey);
            encryptedData = cipher.doFinal(dataToEncrypt);

            try {
                final String encryptedText = new String(Base64.encode(encryptedData, Base64.DEFAULT), "UTF-8");
                return encryptedText.toString();
            }
            catch (final UnsupportedEncodingException e1) { return null; }
        } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); }

        return "ERROR";
    }

Sample II:

    public byte[] RSAEncrypt(final String plain) throws NoSuchAlgorithmException, NoSuchPaddingException,
            InvalidKeyException, IllegalBlockSizeException, BadPaddingException, InvalidKeySpecException {
        KeyPairGenerator kpg = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("RSA");
        kpg.initialize(1024);
        KeyPair kp = kpg.genKeyPair();
        PublicKey publicKey = KeyFactory.getInstance("RSA").generatePublic(new X509EncodedKeySpec(RSAUtils.PUBLIC_KEY.getBytes()));

        Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("RSA");
        cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, publicKey);
        byte[] encryptedBytes = cipher.doFinal(plain.getBytes());
        System.out.println("EEncrypted?????" + org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Hex.encodeHexString(encryptedBytes));
        return encryptedBytes;
    }

Sample III:

 public static String encryptRSAToString(String text, String strPublicKey) {
        byte[] cipherText = null;
        String strEncryInfoData="";
        try {

            KeyFactory keyFac = KeyFactory.getInstance("RSA");
            KeySpec keySpec = new X509EncodedKeySpec(Base64.decode(strPublicKey.trim().getBytes(), Base64.DEFAULT));
            Key publicKey = keyFac.generatePublic(keySpec);

            // get an RSA cipher object and print the provider
            final Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("RSA");
            // encrypt the plain text using the public key
            cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, publicKey);
            cipherText = cipher.doFinal(text.getBytes());
            strEncryInfoData = new String(Base64.encode(cipherText,Base64.DEFAULT));

        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return strEncryInfoData.replaceAll("(\\r|\\n)", "");
    }

Any help or suggestions would be really helpful to me. Thanks in advance.

Your public key is clearly corrupted. You have an equals sign ('=') in the middle of the base64 string which is invalid. Even if I remove that the key is still invalid. – President James K. Polk
Actually i posted a sample public key. The actual key which I am using is completely different. – Chandru
@JamesKPolk Please find the actual key here pastebin.com/7beLfTpK – Chandru

try this.

public static String PUBLIC_KEY = "YOUR PUBLIC KEY";

static String enccriptData(String txt)
{
  String encoded = "";
  byte[] encrypted = null;
    try {
        byte[] publicBytes = Base64.decode(PUBLIC_KEY, Base64.DEFAULT);
        X509EncodedKeySpec keySpec = new X509EncodedKeySpec(publicBytes);
        KeyFactory keyFactory = KeyFactory.getInstance("RSA");
        PublicKey pubKey = keyFactory.generatePublic(keySpec);
        Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("RSA/ECB/PKCS1PADDING"); //or try with "RSA"
        cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, pubKey);
        encrypted = cipher.doFinal(txt.getBytes());
        encoded = Base64.encodeToString(encrypted, Base64.DEFAULT);
    }
    catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
    }
    return encoded;
}

EDIT:

You can use my code but read the comment of James K Polk, he's right

The Kotlin Code for RSA encryption:

first of all you need to remove "-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----" and "-----END PUBLIC KEY-----" and ... to have a clean text.

Just use this:

 publicKy = publicKy  .replace("\\r".toRegex(), "")
        .replace("\\n".toRegex(), "")
        .replace(System.lineSeparator().toRegex(), "")
        .replace("-----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----", "")
        .replace("-----END PUBLIC KEY-----", "")


    val encryptedString = enccriptData(input,publicKy)

' input ' is the text which you want to encrypt with your public key,
then you need to use this method:

fun enccriptData(txt: String, pk: String): String? {
    var encoded = ""
    var encrypted: ByteArray? = null
    try {
        val publicBytes: ByteArray = Base64.decode(pk, Base64.DEFAULT)
        val keySpec = X509EncodedKeySpec(publicBytes)
        val keyFactory: KeyFactory = KeyFactory.getInstance("RSA")
        val pubKey: PublicKey = keyFactory.generatePublic(keySpec)
        val cipher: Cipher = Cipher.getInstance("RSA/ECB/PKCS1PADDING")
        cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, pubKey)
        encrypted = cipher.doFinal(txt.toByteArray())
        encoded = Base64.encodeToString(encrypted, Base64.DEFAULT)
    } catch (e: Exception) {
        e.printStackTrace()
    }
    return encoded
}
