[Mono-list] TripleDES encryption problem

Carlos,

The TripleDES class is completely implemented in Mono. There is a issue in
MACTripleDES because .NET 1.0 and 1.1 are incompatible in some cases (when
the data length is a multiple of the block size) and Mono is currently only
compatible with 1.0. However this isn't the MAC used in SSL nor TLS - so it
shouldn't affect you.

When you say that it works under Windows/MS.NET do you mean your TLS code
runs normally using the MS TripleDES implementation ?
If so I may have an idea on how to debug this.

Hello:

I'm making a basic TLS implementation in C#, now i'm testing it on linux
using mono, using RC4 my sample code runs fine but if i use TripleDES
the messages i sent seems to be bad encrypted, the openssl server raise
a fatal alert of BAd record MAC ( This is working well using Windows and
MS .NET ):

ERROR
1024:error:1408F455:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_RECORD:decryption failed or
bad record mac:s3_pkt.c:424:



What is the status of the TripleDES classes ??
