Encrypt in node and decrypt in java
Finally, I found the solution to my problem. Thanks to this guy. The key to the solution is the initialization vector. Quoting the gist:
// ECB mode won't need IV, so keep it like this and it will work well.
Here's how the solution looks like:
var crypto = require('crypto'),
iv = new Buffer(''),
key = new Buffer('6d7956657279546f705365637265744b', 'hex'),
cipher = cypto.createCipheriv('aes-128-ecb', key, iv),
chunks = [];
chunks.push(cipher.update(
new Buffer(JSON.stringify({someKey: "someValue"}), 'utf8'),
'buffer', 'base64'));
chunks.push(cipher.final('base64'));
var encryptedString = chunks.join('');
Thought I post the a full CBC example from both the node and java sides(256 instead of 128): If you get the java.security.InvalidKeyException you have to install the Java Cryptography Extension (JCE) unlimited strength jurisdiction policy files:
