RE: cf_encrypt()
It performs an XOR on each character in the string with the corresponding character in the key. If it gets to the end of the key, it starts again at the first character in the key. The result of each of these operations is formated as a 2 character HEX representation of it's ascii number. As has been mentioned, it's very weak. The code below should show provide a reasonable explanation of how it works. * #cfusion_encrypt(string,key)# formatBaseN(bitXor(asc(stringChar),asc(keyChar)),16)> #newString# ** Spike Stephen Milligan Code poet for hire http://www.spike.org.uk Do you cfeclipse? http://cfeclipse.tigris.org >-Original Message- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Eric Jones >Sent: Thursday, August 19, 2004 12:12 PM >To: CF-Talk >Subject: RE: cf_encrypt() > >VERY basic.

RE: cf_encrypt()
Yeah, that's what I'm curious about. What algorithm? Thanks for clarifying my question! :~) Willy >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 8/19/2004 1:12:14 PM >>> VERY basic.

RE: cf_encrypt()
VERY basic. It only returns a string with letters and numbers. Nothing "special" about it not sure if it's any particular algorithm, or just something MM came up with... Would be nice to know, so if anyone has any details please post to list :) ERJ -Original Message- From: Willy Ray [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, August 19, 2004 3:11 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: cf_encrypt() Does anybody know what kind of encryption cf_encrypt() is using?
