encryption - How to encrypt and decrypt file for Android Kitkat and higher? -


i googling , testing solution while , far no success. there problem it. following code "working" (meaning not show error while running) on android kitkat , higher, decrypted files not readable. why?

final static byte[] iv = new byte[16];//added final static int buffer = 102400; final static string encryptiontype = "aes/cfb8/nopadding";//changed different type  static void encrypt(string password, file fileinput, file fileoutput) throws exception {      ivparameterspec ivparams = new ivparameterspec(iv);//added      fileinputstream fis = new fileinputstream(fileinput);     fileoutputstream fos = new fileoutputstream(fileoutput);      secretkeyspec sks = new secretkeyspec(password.getbytes("utf-8"), encryptiontype);      cipher cipher = cipher.getinstance(encryptiontype);     //cipher.init(cipher.encrypt_mode, sks);replaced     cipher.init(cipher.encrypt_mode, sks, ivparams);     cipheroutputstream cos = new cipheroutputstream(fos, cipher);      int b;     byte[] d = new byte[buffer];     while ((b = fis.read(d)) != -1) {         cos.write(d, 0, b);     }      cos.flush();     cos.close();     fis.close(); }  static void decrypt(string password, file fileinput, file fileoutput) throws exception {      ivparameterspec ivparams = new ivparameterspec(iv);//added      fileinputstream fis = new fileinputstream(fileinput);     fileoutputstream fos = new fileoutputstream(fileoutput);      secretkeyspec sks = new secretkeyspec(password.getbytes("utf-8"), encryptiontype);      cipher cipher = cipher.getinstance(encryptiontype);     //cipher.init(cipher.encrypt_mode, sks);replaced     cipher.init(cipher.decrypt_mode, sks, ivparams);     cipherinputstream cis = new cipherinputstream(fis, cipher);      int b;     byte[] d = new byte[buffer];     while ((b = cis.read(d)) != -1) {         fos.write(d, 0, b);     }      fos.flush();     fos.close();     cis.close(); }

edit: after changed type "aes/cfb8/nopadding", seems ok, there no error in process, decrypted file not readable.

the problem in decrypt method caused line:

cipher.init(cipher.encrypt_mode, sks);

the mode needs cipher.decrypt_mode, line should be

cipher.init(cipher.decrypt_mode, sks);

other issues use of long obsolete desede algorithm, lack of iv generation , handling, absence of password-based key derivation algorithm, , lack of mac on ciphertext. correctly using aes gcm mode proper nonce generation , handling, , use of pbkdf2 (which available on android , oracle java) represent significant improvements.

you don't supply iv, 1 generated automatically. must find way transmit iv recipient. typically iv/nonce prepending ciphertext , stripped off recipient in order decrypt data. cipherinputstream/cipheroutputstream not you, must on own.

angular - Ionic slides - dynamically add slides before and after -

hi i'm using ngfor create set of 3 slides while starting in middle i'm guaranteed able slide left or right on start. when slide right can simple listen reachedend , push slide array i'm looping. but have problem adding slide beginning. if same above , use e.g. array.unshift() or spread add item beginning, view think it's on position 0 , snaps view new slide. the code below work animates slide change index 1. slide = [0,1,2] //example loop slidechanged(event) { if(this.slides.isbeginning()){ this.slide = [this.slide[0]-1, ...this.slide]; this.slides.update(); this.slides.slideto(1) } } <ion-slides [initialslide]="1" (ionslidedidchange)="slidechanged($event)"> <ion-slide *ngfor="let item of slide"> <h1>slide {{item}}</h1> </ion-slide> </ion-slides> any appreciated! you can using ionslidenextend , ionslideprevend events slides . please...

Add a dynamic header in angular 2 http provider -

i have http interceptor built via tutorial https://scotch.io/@kashyapmukkamala/using-http-interceptor-with-angular2 the problem need have dynamic header changes automatically once changes 'mode' in app. service able tell interceptor change header, or have interceptor pull header (which string)from service each request. able throwing away patch method, call http.patch('new header string') set header string. call in service controls 'mode' setting. wondering if there way interceptor pull recent value service each request or if can add method http provider via interceptor? i've tried call service in interceptor each request returns undefined. because creating new instance of service or copying value before service fired , loaded/changed data. i don't want pass header string every http provider call because defeats purpose of having interceptor, id able set once changes or have provider fetch service before makes request. tl;dr : need add autom...

minify - Minimizing css files -

i want know how css files can minimized. currently, using external sites css minifier compress css files. however, after removing whitespaces, comments, etc, file sizes reduced 10-15%. how frameworks bootstrap manage make minimized versions kilobytes. as example, css is: body { background-color: #ff0; } the reduction goes 28 bytes 22 bytes other css files have lot more characters still smaller this. actually minifying code means it's remove thing code white space characters new line characters comments block delimiters it reduces amount of code has transferred on web , speed site load fastly.but unreadable format.
