To store the encrypted data in a MySQL database, you first have to encode the data so it can safely be written. You can use a blob type for this, but it can make SELECTs really nasty. The easiest way I have found to do this is with base64_encode and base64_decode. The following example using code from a previous example and split into encrypt and decrypt functions.
function EncryptData($source)
{
$fp=fopen("/etc/httpd/conf/ssl.crt/server.crt","r");
$pub_key=fread($fp,8192);
fclose($fp);
openssl_get_publickey($pub_key);
/*
* NOTE: Here you use the $pub_key value (converted, I guess)
*/
openssl_public_encrypt($source,$crypttext,$pub_key);
return(base64_encode($crypttext));
}
function DecryptData($source)
{
#print("number : $number");
$fp=fopen("/etc/httpd/conf/ssl.key/server.key","r");
$priv_key=fread($fp,8192);
fclose($fp);
// $passphrase is required if your key is encoded (suggested)
$res = openssl_get_privatekey($priv_key,$passphrase);
/*
* NOTE: Here you use the returned resource value
*/
$decoded_source = base64_decode($source);
openssl_private_decrypt($decoded_source,$newsource,$res);
return($newsource);
}
Just use the return values to store the encrypted data or display the decrypted data.
