AES-128 encryption in Java

I have tried to encrypt some plaintext, which is in bytes, with a key, which is in bytes. However, the output I am getting is not what I am expecting.

public class AES {


    public static byte[] encrypt(byte[] plainText, byte[] key) {
        try {
            Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES");
            SecretKeySpec secretKey = new SecretKeySpec(key, "AES");
            cipher.init(Cipher.ENCRYPT_MODE, secretKey);
            byte[] cipherText = cipher.doFinal(plainText);
            return cipherText;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return null;
    }

    public static String byteToHex(byte[] hash) {

        StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(hash.length * 2);
        for (byte b : hash) {
            sb.append(String.format("%02x", b));
        }
        return sb.toString();
    }


    public static void main(String args[]) {

        byte plaintext[] = {0x00,0x11,0x22,0x33,0x44,0x55,0x66,0x77,0x58,0x63,(byte)0xaa,(byte)0xbb,(byte)0xcc,(byte)0xdd,(byte)0xee,(byte)0xff};
        byte key[] = {0x00,0x01,0x02,0x03,0x04,0x05,0x06,0x07,0x08,0x09,0x0a,0x0b,0x0c,0x0d,0x0e,0x0f};


        byte[] encrypted = encrypt(plaintext, key);
        System.out.println("Encrypted String : " + byteToHex(encrypted));

    }
}

The output I am getting is: 814064943fe05668da1f3d2269a4ee22954f64f2e4e86e9eee82d20216684899 while I am expecting 69c4e0d86a7b0430d8cdb78070b4c55a. I am using the plaintext and key from here

There are two things incorrect in your code.

  1. You use PKCS5 padding while the original example doesn't use any padding.

  2. You incorrectly copied the plain text.

So:

Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES/ECB/NoPadding");

...

byte plaintext[] = { 0x00, 0x11, 0x22, 0x33, 0x44, 0x55, 0x66, 0x77, (byte) 0x88,
        (byte) 0x99, (byte) 0xaa, (byte) 0xbb, (byte) 0xcc, (byte) 0xdd, (byte) 0xee, (byte) 0xff };

Result:

Encrypted String : 69c4e0d86a7b0430d8cdb78070b4c55a
