CryptProtectData & CryptUnprotectData

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I wrapped the two functions CryptProtectData and CryptUnprotectData to protect passwords.

MSDN says: Typically, only a user with the same logon credential as the user who encrypted the data can decrypt the data. In addition, the encryption and decryption usually must be done on the same computer.

For detailed information visit MSDN:

* CryptProtectData:     http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa380261(v=vs.85).aspx

* CryptUnprotectData: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa380882(v=vs.85).aspx

I hope that there are no memory leaks, if you find one, please tell me!

Have fun!!!

neat, I've been using that API for some time to manage passwords on my chromium installation..

I've been meaning to make a password manager in autoit for some time now that imports passwords.. I already have one that does that for chrome/chromium

I'm surprised noone's made a legit one yet.. or thrown some source for one here..

Thanks,

I was surprised, that this functions are not already wrapped for AutoIt, because they are very useful.

Added example for using CRYPTPROTECT_PROMPTSTRUCT.

I made a UDF out of it and attached to the first thread. I'm sure function names have to change but I did not rename them for now.

Hi, I test your script but don't work for me, still get error 1 from encrypt function, can u help me how to solve?

Thanks, Hard

Seems like DllCall for CryptProtectData() fails, but I cannot help you any further without more information. Show me your script and tell me what Windows and AutoIt versions you are using.

it seems now it runs ok, i update autoit to latest version 3.3.12.0 and my win version is win 8.1 x64, version of crypt32.dll is 6.3.9600.16431, ty for help and escecially for your UDF  :thumbsup:

You are welcome. Since the functions work quite well with AutoIt version 3.3.8.1 I'm curious what old version you did run before updating to 3.3.12.0 :huh2:

Thanks for your feedback, but I can only test it on Win7 x64 and there is no problem with string length.

Maybe someone else can test this with Win8(.1)??

Can it be that the problem the exe compiler from autoit?

No definitely not. Why do you ask? Does it work for you when not compiled?

So lets wait until another one hopefully will test on Win8.1.

No problems on my Win 8.1 x64.

Neither when running it from SciTE nor when compiled.

Hi! Google Chrome uses this lib for encrypt saved passwords, cookies and... values.

But your function can't decrypt this code (It's one of my encrypted saved password):
 

ConsoleWrite(_CryptUnprotectData("0x763130C202B9EEA1599409C26FD6D4366CAF364BF9EBD238B407F2E7767BC3619082CD23C5009FA2225ECD86B78B", ""))
