Plugin conflict incomplete mcrypt functions
-
Hi,
We have recently had reports of a plugin conflict between this plugin and ours UpdraftPlus.
Upon further investigation we found that the issue is your plugin defines it’s own versions of the various mcrypt functions (encrypt, decrypt) but these implementations don’t work like the originals, in our case this then causes the decryption to fail.
It fails because we try to decrypt using a certain cipher in this case MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128 but your implementation of the function has a hardcoded cipher value of aes-256-cbc.
This isn’t the only plugin of ours which would have this conflict and I assume other plugins will also have these same problems.
if the function doesn’t exactly do what mcrypt_*() does, then it should be called something else.
Best Wishes,
Ashley
