How to set 16 0's key value on TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider.
Sep 6 2011 8:34 AM
I want to set a known value for key in 3DES algorithm. But i have observed after using TripleDesCryptoServiceProvider in C# code and assigning all 16 0's as key my program gave error "Cryptographic Exception was unhandled"
Please have a look on my piece of code,
byte[] IV=new byte[8] {0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00};
byte[] key = new byte[24] { 0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00};
TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider tDESalg = new TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider();
// Create a string to encrypt.
byte[] testData = new byte[8] { 0xD6,0x52,0xF9,0xCF,0x3F,0x31,0x7D,0xEC};
tDESalg.IV = IV;
tDESalg.Padding = PaddingMode.None;
tDESalg.Key = key; // Error Cryptographic Exception was unhandled. Specified key is a known weak key for 'TripleDES' and can't be used.
How to solve this issue. I don't want to use default key value coming from TDES and as per my requirement key value must all zero.
