aes how to set 'zeropadding' in 'cbc' mode? about steel_crypt HOT 3 CLOSED

I'd suppose you need to set third parameter as 'none' in AesCrypt() constructor. (it's from sources).

DON'T use @alexgoussev's answer. The source code is a little ambiguous, but 'none' is not a valid option and will lead to unpredictable behavior.

Refer to my answer in #6. It's the same issue (with ECB instead of CBC), and provides a nice explanation of why padding is necessary.

The summary version of it:

String data = 'DataGoesHereLike'; //some data
assert(data.codeunits.length % 16 == 0)

If that assert statement evaluates to 'true', it doesn't matter what you put in the padding parameter: the encrypted data will be the same regardless.

Lemme know if you have more issues
