ProtectedData.Protect间歇性失败

Question

我正在写一个密码加密例程.我写了下面的应用来说明我的问题.大约20%的时间,此代码按预期工作.其余时间,解密会引发加密异常 - "数据无效".

我认为问题出在加密部分,因为解密部分每次都是一样的.也就是说,如果加密例程产生解密例程可以解密的值,则它总是可以解密它.但是,如果加密例程产生一个阻塞解密例程的值,它总是会窒息.所以解密程序是一致的; 加密例程不是.

我怀疑我对Unicode编码的使用是不正确的,但我尝试过其他具有相同结果的人.

我究竟做错了什么？

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Security.Cryptography;

namespace DataProtectionTest
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        private static readonly byte[] entropy = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4 };
        private string password;
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void btnEncryptIt_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Byte[] pw = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(textBox1.Text);
            Byte[] encryptedPw = ProtectedData.Protect(pw, entropy, DataProtectionScope.LocalMachine);
            password = Encoding.Unicode.GetString(encryptedPw);     
        }

        private void btnDecryptIt_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Byte[] pwBytes = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(password);
            try
            {
                Byte[] decryptedPw = ProtectedData.Unprotect(pwBytes, entropy, DataProtectionScope.LocalMachine);
                string pw = Encoding.Unicode.GetString(decryptedPw);
                textBox2.Text = pw;
            }
            catch (CryptographicException ce)
            {
                textBox2.Text = ce.Message;
            }
        }
    }
}

根据同事的建议,我选择了Convert.ToBase64String.效果很好.修正了以下程序.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Security.Cryptography;

namespace DataProtectionTest
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        private static readonly byte[] entropy = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4 };
        private string password;
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void btnEncryptIt_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            Byte[] pw = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(textBox1.Text);
            Byte[] encryptedPw = ProtectedData.Protect(pw, entropy, DataProtectionScope.LocalMachine);
            //password = Encoding.Unicode.GetString(encryptedPw);       
            password = Convert.ToBase64String(encryptedPw);
        }

        private void btnDecryptIt_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            //Byte[] pwBytes = Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(password);
            Byte[] pwBytes = Convert.FromBase64String(password);
            try
            {
                Byte[] decryptedPw = ProtectedData.Unprotect(pwBytes, entropy, DataProtectionScope.LocalMachine);
                string pw = Encoding.Unicode.GetString(decryptedPw);
                textBox2.Text = pw;
            }
            catch (CryptographicException ce)
            {
                textBox2.Text = ce.Message;
            }
        }
    }
}
