Foil Pics allows you to encrypt some pictures from the gallery with a password stronger than the lock code. Strictly speaking, each picture is encrypted with a unique random 256-bit AES key which in turn is encrypted with an RSA key which in turn is encrypted with your password. If the bad guys get your encrypted pictures, they would have to crack the AES key (different for each picture) or the RSA key (shared by all pictures but harder to crack) in order to extract the content. If they get the encrypted RSA key as well, then they can brute force your password. So in the end, the encryption is as strong as your password.

The format of the encrypted file is described here.

The RSA key is stored in ~/.local/share/foil/foil.key - you can copy it from one device to another. Using the same RSA key on different devices, protected with different passwords, is actually not such a bad idea. If you forget the password, you can use the backup key to decrypt the images, assuming that it has a different password that you still remember.

Note that you can add your encrypted files and the Foil key to the backup with the help of My Backup app.

Hi,
Found a bug/design flaw for decoding pictures. I have an old pictures encrypted taken originally from sd card. I the meantime I have changed sd, so id (and path) of an sd card contents has changed. Now, to decrypt those old pictures I had to make a temporary symbolic link with old path (saw an error in the logs). My proposal is to decrypt to standard pictures directory if old, original path does not exist.

Thank you for the report, the app does indeed try to restore the file in its original form (path, time stamp and so on) but apparently some corner cases like then one you have described, are not handled properly. Will do something about it when I have time!

No 64 bit package find

Only 32-bit packages were affected by this change because only those are being linked with OpenSSL 1.0 (previously dynamically, now statically - at the expense of a noticeable size change) for compatibility with the older releases of the OS which didn't have OpenSSL 1.1. 64-bit packages have been linked against OpenSSL 1.1 from the very beginning. I can provide a 64-bit build 1.0.21 too but it's going to be absolutely identical to the 1.0.20.

BTW if you have a 32-bit device and prefer to install a smaller package dynamically linked with OpenSSL 1.1 you can pick one from Chum area of the public Sailfish OS OBS.

where are your sources of openssl1.0.2 ? You simply include the library statically and we should believe that things are all right?

 

all we know is: https://github.com/monich/harbour-foilpics/blob/master/rpm/harbour-foilp... "BuildRequires: openssl-static"

Downloading a Chum build more or less guarantees that the statically linked version is the original one provided by Jolla. If you choose to download rpm from OpenRepos - yes, you have to trust me that I actually built it in OBS, the rpm is not signed or anything.

don't do that. Don't link openssl1.0 anymore and in no way statically. There is 1.1.1l available here (Jolla1 aka JollaPhone too): https://openrepos.net/content/lpr/curl

All other devices can update to at least SFOS4.0.

What's wrong with openssl1.0, really. My apps only use MD5, SHA, AES and RSA, are there any known critical bugs in openssl1.0 wrt those algorithms? I highly doubt that. IMO bending over backwards in order to always link against the most recent version of openssl isn't worth the trouble, at least in my case.

don't link security-critical stuff statically. And why? Everyone can install openssl1.1

slava's picture

Sun, 2021/11/07 - 22:20

It's the only way to build an rpm compatible with both systems that don't have openssl1.0 and those that don't have openssl1.1. That's why.

It doesn't matter how you link openssl1.0, dynamically or statically, since it's no longer being maintained.

And if everyone can install openssl1.1 then everyone can rebuild my apps and link them with whatever they like!

Mon, 2021/11/08 - 02:25

those who don't have it (Jolla1) can install it, I don't see the point.

The only requirement is Glibc 2.17 which is really quite old... (before SFOS2.0 I think)

That's much harder than an image. The entire image can be decrypted in memory, you can't do that with a video. Keep your videos on an encrypted SD-card))

I'm using an Intex Aqua fish converted to Jolla C. Just to clarify, I have only encrypted ~200 pictures but for some reason while decrypting, it goes beyong 900 pictures and crashes.

Hi, for some reason I'm unable to decrypt the encrypted pictures. I've encrypted around 200 pictures but while decrypting it goes beyong 900 pics and then crashes (I'm guessing due to OOM). Any idea how I can get around this?

Let me try to reproduce it. Sounds like a bug. I have to admit that I never tried to encrypt or decrypt that many pictures at once. What kind of device do you have?

So far I haven't been able to reproduce the crash but there's clearly something wrong with deletion of multiple encrypted images. I'll check it out. If you come up with a reliable way to reproduce the crash, pelase let me know.

It keeps crashing when I decrypt or encrypt...

and the photo in encrypt is doubled...

Double picture must be the consequence of the crash (one of images is most likely the thumbnail). Apparently, the app is crashing when it's trying to write the info file, the one that maps encrypted images to thumbnails and groups.

Can you provide step-by-step instructions on how to reproduce the crash?
