SagePay V3 Form Integration using CFML - AES Encryption - encryption

Question

I've got through the entire FORM integration successfully except for the encryption.
Version 3 requires AES encryption and I don't understand how to implement this stage.
Previously, the CFML script constructed the crypt field at the end using this:
//** call to include file to encrypt
crypt = base64Encode (SimpleXor(stuff,EncryptionPassword));
This called the functions file which did the actual work.
The help I need is in creating a new script in the function.cfm file and also what the call should be.
Can anyone help, please?
Cheers
Here's a snippet of the code:
<cfscript>
ThisVendorTxCode = "#sfo_id#";
ThisVendorName = "pivotell";
stuff = "VendorTxCode=" & ThisVendorTxCode & "&";
stuff = stuff & "VendorName=" & ThisVendorName & "&";
</cfscript>
<cfset encryptionKey = generateSecretKey( "AES" ) />
//** call to include file to encrypt
<cfset crypt = encrypt(stuff,encryptionKey,"AES","hex") />
<cfoutput>
<form action="https://test.sagepay.com/gateway/service/vspform-register.vsp" method="post" id="form1" name="form1">
<input type="hidden" name="VPSProtocol" value="3.00">
<input type="hidden" name="TxType" value="PAYMENT">
<input type="hidden" name="Crypt" value="#crypt#">
</form>
</cfoutput>
I've truncated the full thing for simplicity.

Answer 1

It took me 3 days and 3 nights to figure this out.
Please read page 37 of the Sage Pay Form Integration and Protocol Guidelines 3.00.
A1.1 The Crypt Field
The Crypt field should contain all the other transaction information in plain text as Name=Value fields separated by ‘&’
characters. Ensure that all mandatory fields are present and that
there are no spaces after the ‘&’ character.
This string should then be encrypted using AES (block size 128-bit) in CBC mode with PKCS#5 padding using the provided password as both
the key and initialisation vector and encode the result in hex
(making sure the letters are in upper case).
Prepend the ‘#’ sign to the beginning of the encoded result.
Together with the last answer on this post. It should sort it.
... Since your password string is not base64 encoded, the resulting key
length is too small, ie (12) instead of (16) bytes. ...The solution is
to base64 encode it first... Also, the iv parameter should be binary
<cfset keyIVBytes = charsetDecode(yourKeyString, "utf-8")>
<cfset base64Key = binaryEncode(keyIVBytes, "base64")>
<cfset result = encrypt(plainString, base64Key,"AES/CBC/PKCS5Padding", "hex", keyIVBytes)>
