Key length not enforced #44

Closed emsquared closed 8 years ago

emsquared commented 8 years ago

The code that is used for the ECB mode of operation does not honor the 56 byte (448 bit) maximum key length defined by the standard.

An application that truncates its key is unable to decrypt data output by mIRC FiSH 10 when the mIRC user configured a key that exceeds this length.

Edit: corrected incorrect bit length in message
