# Luzifer / go-openssl
`go-openssl` is a small library wrapping the `crypto/aes` functions in a way the output is compatible to OpenSSL / CryptoJS. For all encryption / decryption processes AES256 is used so this library will not be able to decrypt messages generated with other than `openssl aes-256-cbc`. If you're using CryptoJS to process the data you also need to use AES256 on that side.
## OpenSSL 1.1.0
## OpenSSL 1.1.0c compatibility
With the release of OpenSSL 1.1.0c the default hashing algorithm [changed from `md5` to `sha256`](https://www.cryptopp.com/wiki/OPENSSL_EVP_BytesToKey). Using this new default breaks the en- and decryption used in this library. Currently you need to specify to use `md5` hashing when encrypting using `openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -a -k yourpassword -md md5`. Sadly using `sha256` is not a drop-in replacement and therefore needs to be implemented as a separate function following the OpenSSL source code.
Starting with `v2.0.0` `go-openssl` generates the encryption keys using `sha256sum` algorithm. This is the default introduced in OpenSSL 1.1.0c. When encrypting data you can choose which digest method to use and therefore also continue to use `md5sum`. When decrypting OpenSSL encrypted data `md5sum`, `sha1sum` and `sha256sum` are supported.
