[Security class help with Openssl and a word list.]

overwraith and Cooper.

From the code you both provided I see where I was going wrong. I am sure I can finish this project. You both gave me good code to build on.

Thank You!

Nope, real deal. I skipped the programming requirements since I had programming as an under grad 30 years ago!

In class we were given a text file with the plan text, a text file with the aes-128-cbc encrypted text and a file that is a list of words. We have to write a program in C on an Ubuntu VM with OpenSSL installed to find what is the correct password.

I am new to C and OpenSSL. can someone point me in the right direction? or give me some base code to work from.

Please.
