Example of DBMS_CRYPTO.ENCRYPT_AES256

Hello,

I am currently using DBMS_OBFUSCATION_TOOLKIT.MD5 for encryption and decryption. I want to impliment DBMS_CRYPTO.ENCRYPT_AES256, but I'm unsure how to do so. I'm unable to find appropriate examples online.

I currently have a package that entales a function that gets the hash, a procedure to add user, change_password, validate user, and to select a user. I want to use the same type of setup and the less change the better.

My DBMS_OBFUSCATION_TOOLKIT is located within my get_hash function.

Please help

Thank you
This is located within my package body:

FUNCTION get_hash (username  IN  VARCHAR2,
                     password  IN  VARCHAR2)
    RETURN VARCHAR2 AS
  BEGIN
    RETURN DBMS_OBFUSCATION_TOOLKIT.MD5(
      input_string => password);
  END get_hash;

OK, I was able to get the data into the encrypted data into the table. Now I want to be able to decrypt the data. Please see code.

I'm recieving the below errors
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: hex to raw conversion error
ORA-06512: at "CDB.AP_PASSWORD_ENTRY_DECRYPT", line 24
ORA-06512: at line 7

Thanks

nevermind I figured it out. Thank you

Hi,

I am using Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production. I can execute the following sql statement:

INSERT INTO HR.ENCRYPTED_EMP VALUES(2,
DBMS_CRYPTO.ENCRYPT(UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_RAW('700'),1 + 256 + 4096,UTL_RAW.cast_to_raw('password')),
DBMS_CRYPTO.ENCRYPT(UTL_RAW.CAST_TO_RAW('SomeNameHere'),1 + 256 + 4096,UTL_RAW.cast_to_raw('password')),
'Address location etc.', null, 'M')

-- I got these magic numebrs above (1+256+4096) from another question posted on this forum.

However, when I try to substitute the 1 + 256 + 4096 which stands for DES + CBC + NoPadding with AES256 + CBC + PKCS5Padding, Oracle complains about the following Static values as invalid procedures:

DBMS_CRYPTO.ENCRYPT_AES256 (supposed to be integer)
DBMS_CRYPTO.CHAIN_CBC (integer)
DBMS_CRYPTO.PAD_PKCS5

These Static value are mentioned and recommended in the  Oracle documentation

Is the Express version of my Oracle the problem? Or something else is wrong?
