I really wouldn't do it this way. There are many ways of doing this
within your app without spawning a task. LibCrypto offers functions
for encoding and decoding Base64 as does LibSSL (which is going to be
the same code as you're currently trying to use, but without spawning
a task). There are also several categories on NSData floating around
out there that will allow you to decode and encode Base64 right in
your application, some of which are very well tested.
You can find some good discussion on the topic here:

The category from Colloquy that is discussed has moved to a new
location. You can find it at its new location here:

i'm trying to read the com.apple.recentitems.plist file and i found
that "Alias" and "Icon" key are base64 NSData object.
NSData and NSString don't provide methods to manage base64 data.
I've searched with Google and i found some "pathces" for NSString
and NSData but they don' t seem to work.
I've also tried to write NSData object content to file and pass it
to openssl command from bash:
openssl base64 -d -in in.txt -out out.txt
but it always create a blank file.
Any suggestions?
