openssl.net rsa encryption working example needed

Question

Does anybody have any working example of RSA encryption with OpenSSL.NET ? I want to encrypt some data using private key stored in PEM format.

I create a OpenSSL.Crypto.RSA object and want to use the PrivateEncrypt method, but it throws OpenSSLException with no additional data (empty Errors array, no inner exception). Before using the PrivateEncrypt method I fill all the properties (like PublicModulus, PrivateExponent etc) with data read from command openssl rsa -in private_key.pem -text -noout

Does anybody know how to read the PEM file into OpenSSL.Crypto.RSA object or has any other working encryption example?

I might be able to help out, working on something right now but it's not complete yet so I can't tell if it really works or not. — mhenrixon

This is C/C++ on linux but I found no simple examples like this until I painfully got this to work

Generate key command line

openssl genrsa -out privkey.pem 2048

HelloWord.cpp

#include <global_inc.h>
#include <openssl/rsa.h>
#include <openssl/pem.h>

int main()
{
        char *message = "Hello World";
        unsigned char* encrypted = (unsigned char *) malloc(500);
        unsigned char* decrypted = (unsigned char *) malloc(500);
        int bufSize;

        FILE *keyfile = fopen("privkey.pem", "r");
        RSA *rsa = PEM_read_RSAPrivateKey(keyfile, NULL, NULL, NULL);
        printf("\n\nStarting Message = %s\n", message);
        if (rsa == NULL)
        {
                printf("Badness has occured! Did not read key file\n");
                return 0;
        }
        else
        {
                printf("Opened the key file OK!\n");
        }

        bufSize = RSA_public_encrypt(strlen(message), (unsigned char *) message, encrypted, rsa, RSA_PKCS1_PADDING);
        if (bufSize == -1)
        {
                printf("Badness has occured! encryption failed\n");
                RSA_free(rsa);
                return 0;
        }
        else
        {
                printf("Encrypted the message OK! = \n%s\n", encrypted );
        }

        if (RSA_private_decrypt(bufSize, encrypted, decrypted, rsa, RSA_PKCS1_PADDING) != -1)
        {
                printf("\nMessage decrypted to : %s\n", decrypted);
        }
        else
        {
                printf("Badness has occured! decryption failed\n");
                RSA_free(rsa);
                return 0;
        }

        RSA_free(rsa);
        return 1;
}
