openssl_private_encrypt

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.6, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

openssl_private_encrypt — Verschlüsselt Daten mit einem privaten Schlüssel

Beschreibung

openssl_private_encrypt(
    #[\SensitiveParameter] string $data,
    string &$encrypted_data,
    #[\SensitiveParameter] OpenSSLAsymmetricKey|OpenSSLCertificate|array|string $private_key,
    int $padding = OPENSSL_PKCS1_PADDING
): bool

openssl_private_encrypt() verschlüsselt data mit dem privaten Schlüssel private_key, und speichert das Ergebnis in encrypted_data. Verschlüsselte Daten können mit openssl_public_decrypt() entschlüsselt werden.

Diese Funktion kann z. B. verwendet werden, um Daten (oder deren Hashwert) zu signieren um damit sicherzustellen, dass diese Daten wirklich von einem bestimmten Sender stammen, und nicht von jemand anderem.

Parameter-Liste

data
encrypted_data
private_key: public_key muss der öffentliche Schlüssel sein, der zu dem privaten Schlüssel gehört, mit dem die Daten verschlüsselt wurden.
padding: padding kann entweder OPENSSL_PKCS1_PADDING oder OPENSSL_NO_PADDING sein.

Rückgabewerte

Gibt bei Erfolg true zurück. Bei einem Fehler wird false zurückgegeben.

Changelog

Version	Beschreibung
8.0.0	`private_key` akzeptiert nun eine OpenSSLAsymmetricKey- oder OpenSSLCertificate-Instanz; vorher wurde eine Ressource vom Typ `OpenSSL-Schlüssel` oder `OpenSSL X.509` akzeptiert.

Just a little note on  [P.Peyremorte]'s note.

"- openssl_private_encrypt can encrypt a maximum of 117 chars at one time."

This depends on the length of $key:

- For a 1024 bit key length => max number of chars (bytes) to encrypt = 1024/8 - 11(when padding used) = 117 chars (bytes).
- For a 2048 bit key length => max number of chars (bytes) to encrypt = 2048/8 - 11(when padding used) = 245 chars (bytes).
... and so on

By the way, if openssl_private_encrypt fails because of data size you won't get anything but just false as returned value, the same for openssl_public_decrypt() on decryption.

"- the encrypted output string is always 129 char length. If you use base64_encode on the encrypted output, it will give always 172 chars, with the last always "=" (filler)"

This again depends on the length of $key:

- For a 1024 bit key length => encrypted number of raw bytes is always a block of 128 bytes (1024 bits) by RSA design.
- For a 2048 bit key length => encrypted number of raw bytes is always a block of 256 bytes (2048 bits) by RSA design.
... and so on

About base64_encode output length, it depends on what you encode (meaning it depends on the bytes resulting after encryption), but in general the resulting encoded string will be about a 33% bigger (for 128 bytes bout 170 bytes and for 256 bytes about 340 bytes).

I would then generalize a little [P.Peyremorte]'s note by:
<?php
// given the variables as constants:

  //Block size for encryption block cipher
  private $ENCRYPT_BLOCK_SIZE = 200;// this for 2048 bit key for example, leaving some room

  //Block size for decryption block cipher
  private $DECRYPT_BLOCK_SIZE = 256;// this again for 2048 bit key

         //For encryption we would use:
  function encrypt_RSA($plainData, $privatePEMKey)
  {
    $encrypted = '';
    $plainData = str_split($plainData, $this->ENCRYPT_BLOCK_SIZE);
    foreach($plainData as $chunk)
    {
      $partialEncrypted = '';

      //using for example OPENSSL_PKCS1_PADDING as padding
      $encryptionOk = openssl_private_encrypt($chunk, $partialEncrypted, $privatePEMKey, OPENSSL_PKCS1_PADDING);

      if($encryptionOk === false){return false;}//also you can return and error. If too big this will be false
      $encrypted .= $partialEncrypted;
    }
    return base64_encode($encrypted);//encoding the whole binary String as MIME base 64
  }

         //For decryption we would use:
  protected function decrypt_RSA($publicPEMKey, $data)
  {
    $decrypted = '';

    //decode must be done before spliting for getting the binary String
    $data = str_split(base64_decode($data), $this->DECRYPT_BLOCK_SIZE);

    foreach($data as $chunk)
    {
      $partial = '';

      //be sure to match padding
      $decryptionOK = openssl_public_decrypt($chunk, $partial, $publicPEMKey, OPENSSL_PKCS1_PADDING);

      if($decryptionOK === false){return false;}//here also processed errors in decryption. If too big this will be false
      $decrypted .= $partial;
    }
    return $decrypted;
  }
?>

Encrypt using private key, decrypt using public key.



Use this for posting signed messages:  Anyone with access to

your public key can read it, but they can't create one with

your signature.



<?php

echo "Source: $source";

$fp=fopen("/path/to/private.key","r");

$priv_key=fread($fp,8192);

fclose($fp);

// $passphrase is required if your key is encoded (suggested)

$res = openssl_get_privatekey($priv_key,$passphrase);

/*

 * NOTE:  Here you use the returned resource value

 */

openssl_private_encrypt($source,$crypttext,$res);

echo "String crypted: $crypttext";



$fp=fopen ("/path/to/certificate.crt","r");

$pub_key=fread($fp,8192);

fclose($fp);

openssl_get_publickey($pub_key);

/*

 * NOTE:  Here you use the $pub_key value (converted, I guess)

 */

openssl_public_decrypt($crypttext,$newsource,$pub_key);

echo "String decrypt : $newsource";

Here is a over simplified version of using the crypt capabilities for getting started:

$res = openssl_pkey_new();

// Get private key
openssl_pkey_export($res, $privkey);

// Get public key
$pubkey = openssl_pkey_get_details($res);
$pubkey = $pubkey["key"];
var_dump($privkey);
var_dump($pubkey);

// get some text from command line to work with
$tocrypt = trim(fgets(STDIN));

// some variables to work with
$encryptedviaprivatekey = ""; //holds text encrypted with the private key
$decryptedviapublickey = ""; // holds text which was decrypted by the public key after being encrypted with the private key, should be same as $tocrypt
$encryptedviapublickey = ""; // holds text that was encrypted with the public key
$decryptedviaprivatekey = ""; // holds text that was decrypted with the private key after being encrypted with the public key, should be the same as $tocrypt

openssl_private_encrypt($tocrypt, $encryptedviaprivatekey, $privkey);
echo $tocrypt . "->" . $encryptedviaprivatekey;
echo "\n\n";
openssl_public_decrypt($encryptedviaprivatekey, $decryptedviapublickey, $pubkey);
echo $encryptedviaprivatekey . "->" . $decryptedviapublickey;
echo "\n\n";

openssl_public_encrypt($tocrypt,$encryptedviapublickey, $pubkey);
echo $tocrypt . "->" . $encryptedviapublickey;
echo "\n\n";
openssl_private_decrypt($encryptedviapublickey, $decryptedviaprivatekey, $privkey);
echo $encryptedviapublickey . "->" . $decryptedviaprivatekey;

Output:

A trick not mentioned in manual to know :

- openssl_private_encrypt can encrypt a maximum of 117 chars at one time.
- the encrypted output string is always 129 char length. If you use base64_encode on the encrypted output, it will give always 172 chars, with the last always "=" (filler).

So, to encode a longer stream input you have to use something like :
<?php
$RawData = ... ; //Your input data to encode

$PartialData = '';
$EncodedData = '';
$Split = str_split($RawData , 117);
ForEach($Split as $Part)
{
  openssl_private_encrypt($Part, $PartialData, $PrivateKey);
  $EncodedData .= base64_encode($PartialData);
}
?> 

and then, to decode :

<?php
$OriginalData = '';
$Split = str_split($EncodedData , 172);
ForEach($Split as $Part)
{
  openssl_private_decrypt(base64_decode($Part), $PartialData, $PublicKey);
  $OriginalData .= $PartialData;
}
?>
