[C#] RSACryptoServiceProvider Using the Public Key to decrypt Private Key encrypted Data ?
- by prixone
Hello,
i went thru lots and lots of searchs and results and pages considering this matter but havent found the solution yet.
Like i described in the title i want to decrypt data using my Public Key which is something i am able to do with my PHP code, my certificate is generated from my PHP page.
Here is a sample of what i am trying:
public string Decrypt(string data)
{
X509Certificate2 cert = new X509Certificate2();
cert.Import(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(webApi["PublicDefaultKey"]));
RSACryptoServiceProvider rsa = (RSACryptoServiceProvider)cert.PublicKey.Key;
byte[] ciphertextBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(data);
byte[] plaintextBytes = rsa.Decrypt(ciphertextBytes, false);
return System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(plaintextBytes);
}
MessageBox.Show(Decrypt("pgcl93TpVfyHubuRlL72/PZN0nA4Q+HHx8Y15qGvUyTNpI6y7J13YG07ZVEyB7Dbgx63FSw9vEw1D1Z3bvNbI0gqalVfKTfHv5tKVc7Y6nQwQYwoODpUhVpa/K9OP1lqx4esnxqwJx95G0rqgJTdS+Yo773s5UcJrHzzbsX2z+w="));
here is the public key i am using for tests:

by default, the PHP generates the key in PKCS as far as i know, from my C# code i can encrypt using my publick key with out any problems and decrypt it on my php page but so far i was not able to decrypt data sent from my php page encrypted with the private key which is something i can do on my php...
i did like some help to understand what i am doing wrong...
the error when i run the functions is "bad data" at rsa.Decrypt(ciphertextBytes, false); which i couldnt found anymore information at it...
Thanks for any and all the help :)
