aes-lib-js is a comprehensive AES library that includes a complete Javascript implementation of AES/Rijndael
The library supports all 128/192/256 key size versions of the AES algorithm
By default the library runs AES in CBC mode but can be easily implemented in other modes
Notable projects using aes-lib-js include ByteChat and SafeExchange.
The repository also includes a research document that was written for this work and outlines in depth the AES algorithm and how it can be applied in the web landscape
The following function can be used to encrypt your plain-text message
You will need to input the plain-text string, a private key string (or state matrix type), an Initial Vector string (or state matrix type) and the size of the key (128/192/256 bits)
var encryptedMessage = AES.encryptMessage(message, privateKey, iv, 128);
Note: State matrices in aes-lib-js are auxilery data structures and are essentially wrappers for 2D arrays
You can transform a string into a state matrix using Structure.strToState(message); or transform
hex into a state matrix with Structure.hexToState(message);
The following function can be used to decrypt an encrypted message The encrypted string, private key, initial vector and key size will need to be input The function will decrypt the message and return the plain-text string
var decryptedMessage = AES.decryptMessage(encryptedMessage, privateKey, iv, 128);
