Status: Unverified
FACT(s) (Environment):
OpenEdge 10.x
SYMPTOM(s):
Encrypting data in 4GL client
Encrypted data is sent to a .Net client
.Net client is unable to decrypt the encrypted data
CAUSE:
The 4GL code was incorrectly using password based encryption (i.e. the GENERATE-PBE-KEY function was used to assign values to the SYMMETRIC-ENCRYPTION-KEY and SYMMETRIC-ENCRYPTION-IV attributes of the SECURITY-POLICY handle.
FIX:
Modify the 4GL code to pass a MEMPTR containing the encryption keys rather than using the GENERATE-PBE-KEY function.
