Password Hint in encrypted file


Recommended Posts

Hi people,

I'm trying to include a password hint withing and encrypted file without success. Would any one help me please.

thanks in advance and regards.

#include <Crypt.au3>
#include <File.au3>

Global $FileToEncrypt = "FileToEncrypt.txt"
Global $FileEncrypted = "EncryptedFile.txt"
Global $FileEncryptedWithHint = "EncryptedFileWithHint.txt"
Global $FileEncryptedWithOutHint = "EncryptedFileWithOutHint.txt"
Global $FileDecrypted = "FileDecrypted.txt"
Global $ALG = $CALG_AES_128
Global $PasswordHint = "Hint here"
Global $PasswordToEncryptWith = "securepass"

Encryptfile()
DecryptFile()

Func Encryptfile()
    While 1
        $PasswordToEncryptWith = InputBox("Enter password", "Enter password that is used to encrypt the file.")
        If $PasswordToEncryptWith > "" Then
            ExitLoop
        EndIf
        $PasswordHint = InputBox("Enter a password hint", "Enter password hint that is used to remember the password.")
        If $PasswordHint > "" Then
            ExitLoop
        EndIf
    WEnd
    _Crypt_EncryptFile($FileToEncrypt, $FileEncrypted, $PasswordToEncryptWith, $ALG)

    $FileEncryptedWithHint = FileOpen($FileEncrypted, $FO_APPEND)
    FileWrite($FileEncryptedWithHint, @CRLF & $PasswordHint)
    FileClose($FileEncryptedWithHint)
EndFunc   ;==>Encryptfile

Func DecryptFile()
    $FileOpen = FileOpen($FileEncryptedWithHint)
    $Hint = FileReadLine($FileEncryptedWithHint, -1) ;read last line password
    ConsoleWrite("Your hint is = " & $Hint & @CRLF)

    $FileRead = FileRead($FileOpen)
    $FileWithoutHint = StringReplace($FileRead, $Hint, "")
    FileClose($FileOpen)
    $FileToDecrypt=FileOpen($FileEncryptedWithOutHint)
    FileWrite($FileToDecrypt, $RemovedPassword)
    _Crypt_DecryptFile($FileEncryptedWithOutHint, $FileDecrypted, $PasswordToEncryptWith, $ALG)
EndFunc   ;==>DecryptFile

Ascer, I added the code but I keep getting a corrupted file when decripted.

#include <Crypt.au3>
#include <File.au3>


Global $ALG = $CALG_AES_128
Global $sEncryptedFilePath, $sPasswordHint
Global $FileDecrypted = "FileDecrypted.txt"
Global $sPassword

; Put here path to your file
Global $FILE_PATH = @ScriptDir & "\Data.txt"

Local $aRet = doCryptFile($FILE_PATH)

If Not @error Then
    ConsoleWrite("Successfully encoded file!" & @CRLF)
    ConsoleWrite("Return..." & @CRLF)
    ConsoleWrite("Path to file: " & $aRet[0] & @CRLF)
    ConsoleWrite("Password: " & $aRet[1] & @CRLF)
    ConsoleWrite("PasswordHint: " & $aRet[2] & @CRLF)

I digged this _Decrypt function and looks like has bugs in MSDN or AutoIt Crypt.au3.

When you crypt file and save it example as Encrypted_Data.txt you can easy use _Decrypt function but...

After edit file, example remove PasswordHint and save you will get output like a ". . . . " and error 420 {failed to decrypt final source}

It meeans that function FileWrite change something in Encrypted_Data.txt that you cannot decrypt it.

I've used other function _Decrypt_Data to decode just file content and save it as a new file Decrypted_Data.txt

Additional: i've used function BinaryToString cuz output of _Decrypt_Data function is in BinaryString.

This is full code... changed algorithm to AES_256 since ALG look like broken.

Hi Ascer, first of all I really appreciate the time and effort you dedicate to respond so thank you.

unfortunately when the file is decripted it works properly for a text file with only one line of text, but in other cases of Word  files or files of over 200 lines of text it shows some error related with the hint ( +++ Error 4. Invalid password hint in 3th parameter or failed to get hint from file., etc)

I attach the code you provide me with some slight modifications just for you to see if you want,  thanks again.

#include <Crypt.au3>
#include <File.au3>

Global $sPassword=""
Global $sPasswordHint=""

; Put here path to your file

;Global $FILE_PATH = @ScriptDir & "\Test2.txt" ; one line of text OK --------------------------------------------------------
Global $FILE_PATH = @ScriptDir & "\Data.txt" ;over 200 lines of text NOK ----------------------------------------------------

Try to play with this code may be useful

#include <Crypt.au3>

ConsoleWrite(Main())

Func Main()

    Local $sData = FileRead(FileOpen(@ScriptDir & "\Data.txt"))
    Local $sPassword = "hello"
    Local $sPasswordHint = "123"

    Local $sCrypt = _Crypt_EncryptData($sData, $sPassword, 0x00006610)

    If @error Then
        Return SetError(@error, @extended, 1)
    EndIf

    Local $sCryptAddHint = $sCrypt & $sPasswordHint

    $sCrypt = Binary($sCrypt)

    Local $sTrimCrypt = StringTrimRight($sCryptAddHint, StringLen($sCryptAddHint) - StringLen($sCrypt))

    Local $sDecrypt = _Crypt_DecryptData($sTrimCrypt, $sPassword, 0x00006610)

    If @error Then
        Return SetError(@error, @extended, 2)
    EndIf

    Return BinaryToString($sDecrypt)

EndFunc

Ascer, I was playing around with the function and I found that it's possible to encrypt data, write to a file and then uncrypt it. But it only works with some type of files, eg: it works OK with .docx, au3, txt, xlsx but it doesn't work with ppt and pdf for instance. It seems that in some cases Autoit  Filewrite function encodes the file in a different manner than the original application. Thought it is not an alternative to include the hint in the file.

Thanks again.

@jcpetu, always try to convert everything to binary before working on any file. Working with binary, you would convert whatever file you want and also any kind of file can be be used and for instance ppt and pdf. However, for your Hint , convert it to binary and add it to the end of the file. When reading/writing file, use the $FO_BINARY flag in the read/write file. In that case you will succeed. But, make sure the number of bytes read/written when encrypting and decrypting a file are the same. If I have time, I could write for you a function showing you this behavior, but I'm just giving you a hint :).
