Please do not post the same question in multiple forums.

Please let me know if this is not the correct location in the boards for this post. I did not see a section for cryptography or for Security.
A piece of accounting software we use that is for a vertical industry use to store our users passwords in a RDBMS as plain text. They did use a substitution cipher so the password was encrypted at a very basic level. They also used a location specif substitution. I don;t know if that is the correct term for this type of substitution cipher but its where the letter you replace changes based on the original character and its position within the encrypted text. For example if the password was password then the text stored might be h^e)7ght . Even though the s is listed twice its substituted text is different because the first instance is in the 3rd position and the next is in the fourth position. The substituted character was always the same based on original character value plus its postilion so the lower case s was always stored as a lower case e when it was in the third potion of any users password. I hope that properly conveys the encryption method the software used and if there is a proper term for this kind of substitution cipher please post and let me know.
With the most recent update the software vendor has moved to a more complex encryption method and I'm puzzled by it because the encrypted text consist of fewer characters then its source. For example if the password is password then the encrypted text consists of 64 characters. If the password is paswordpasswordpassword the encrypted text is 64 characters long. I assume that when the password is less then 64 characters then the process is padding the rest. What puzzles me is when we use a password that is greater then 64 characters in length. If i create a password that consist of 70 characters the encrypted text is still only 64 characters in length. I'm new to this so this may be a dumb question but how can you use fewer characters then the source text you are encrypting?

Simple: they have found that they have a legal responsibility to secure password storage, and realised that a substitution cipher (or any form of encryption) is fundamentally in secure.
So instead, they are using a hashing algorithm, which cannot be reversed and which always generates a result that is the same length, in your case 64 bytes. (which would imply SHA-512).

Just to add some background: Have a look here: Password Storage: How to do it.[^] - it explains why hashing and salting are used instead of encryption.
And remember: if an app has any European Union users then GDPR applies and that means you need to handle passwords as sensitive data and stored them in a safe and secure manner. Text is neither of those and the fines can be .... um ... outstanding. In December 2018 a German company received a relatively low fine of €20,000 for just that.

There's no such thing as "opening" a .DLL file. It's just a bunch of code and data. There's nothing to see in them.
You haven't said anything about what you're really trying to do nor on which file. "Open Visual C" doesn't mean anything.

It may be there just to get the URL in the forum; not much of a real question.

and I have I have a ViewModel like this:

popupLayout.PopupView.ShowFooter = false;
popupLayout.HeightRequest = 500;
popupLayout.WidthRequest = 500;
popupLayout.Show();
}
}
}
I have a questions here: How can I pass item_location_id (binded to the SfListView) to the ViewModelItemLocation and then show it in the NumberLabel (created in the ViewModelItemLocation code behind)
Thanks,

Hi friends,
I am writing a Unit Test for the method, which has two methods of the same Service are being called, Test method is for the exception case, in one method the Service should return null, it is doing properly, but in the next method it should throw ApplicationException, but it is not throwing, there is no other way to make exception thrown as I need pass the request object and it won't fail there and then calling the Service.
Below is the code for Unit Test, any help would be very very helpful
[TestMethod]
[ExpectedException(typeof(ApplicationException))]
public async Task RegisterOnlineAccountAsync_ExceptionTest()
{
var mockRequest = new OnlineRegistration
{
AccountNumber = "5494526855",
Last4DigitsOfSSN = "4321",
EmailAddress = "abcd@ding.com"
};
var mockPgeAuthResponse = new PgeAuthenticatedUser
{
PersonId = "9013050000",
Email = "abcd@ding.com"
};
PgeAuthenticatedUser mockPgeAuthResponseNull = null;
var mockCCBResponse = new LocatePersonResponse
{
PersonIdList = new List<string> {"9013050000"},
AccountInfoTypes = new List<AccountInfoType>
{
new AccountInfoType
{
AccountNumber = "5494526855",
AccountType = "RES",
MainPersonId = "9013050000"
},
new AccountInfoType
{
AccountNumber = "5494526856",
AccountType = "RES",
MainPersonId = "9013050000"
}
}
};
var mockPaperlessBillResponse = new PaperlessBillResponse
{
EmailAddress = "abcd@ding.com",
IsPaperless = false,
ReceivesCopyOfBill = false
};
var mockPersonDetailResponse = new PersonDetailResponse
{
PersonId = "9013050000",
PersonalIdentifications = new List<PersonalIdentification>
{
new PersonalIdentification
{
Type = "SSN",
Value = "4321"
}
}
};
this._locatePersonContactProxy =
Mock.Of<ILocatePersonContactProxy>(e => e.LocatePersonDetailsAsync(It.IsAny<LocatePersonRequest>()) == Task.FromResult(mockCCBResponse));
this._personDetailsProxy = Mock.Of<IPersonDetailsProxy>(e => e.PersonDetailsGetAsync(It.IsAny<string>()) == Task.FromResult(mockPersonDetailResponse));
this._personManager = Mock.Of<IPersonManager>(e => e.UpdateCcbCssWebUserDetailsAsync(It.IsAny<List<string>>(), It.IsAny<string>()
, It.IsAny<string>(), It.IsAny<string>()) == Task.FromResult(mockPgeAuthResponse));
this._paperlessBillProxy = Mock.Of<IPaperlessBillProxy>(e => e.PaperlessBillingGetAsync(It.IsAny<string>(), It.IsAny<string>()) == Task.FromResult(mockPaperlessBillResponse));
this._paperlessManager = Mock.Of<IPaperlessManager>(e =>
e.PaperlessBillingPreferencesUpdateAsync(It.IsAny<PaperlessBilling>(), It.IsAny<string>(), It.IsAny<string>()) == Task.FromResult(false));
this._customerContactProxy = Mock.Of<ICustomerContactProxy>(e => e.CreateLogAsync(It.IsAny<CustomerContactRequest>()) == Task.FromResult(""));
this._pgeAuthAdminProxy = Mock.Of<IPgeAuthAdminProxy>();
var pgeAuth = new Mock<IPgeAuthAdminProxy>();
pgeAuth.Setup(p => p.GetUserByNameAsync(It.IsAny<string>())).ReturnsAsync(mockPgeAuthResponseNull);
var pgeAuth1 = new Mock<IPgeAuthAdminProxy>();
pgeAuth1.Setup(p => p.CreateUserAccountAsync(It.IsAny<CreateUserAccountRequest>())).Throws(new Exception());
this._pgeMessagingProxy = Mock.Of<IPgeMessagingProxy>(e => e.SendPgeMessageAsync(It.IsAny<PgeMessageRequest>()) == Task.FromResult(false));
this._registrationManager = GetManager();
await this._registrationManager.RegisterOnlineAccountAsync(mockRequest).ConfigureAwait(false);
Assert.ThrowsException<Exception>
(() => new ApplicationException(
$"EmailAddress: ({mockRequest.EmailAddress}) - PersonId: ({mockRequest.PersonId}) - AccountNumber: ({mockRequest.AccountNumber}): Exception caught in AccountManager.Registration.CreateUserOnlineAccountAsync."));
}
The following is the method that needs to be tested:
public async Task<RegisterOnlineAccountResult> RegisterOnlineAccountAsync(OnlineRegistration registration)
{
var registerOnlineAccountResult = new RegisterOnlineAccountResult();
if (registration.PersonId.IsNullOrEmpty())
{
var personDetailsResponse = await this._personDetailsProxy.PersonDetailsGetAsync(registration.PersonId).ConfigureAwait(false);
var cssWebUser = personDetailsResponse?.PersonContactDetails?.FirstOrDefault(pc => pc.ContactType == CSSWebUser);
var xxxAuthenticatedUser = await this._xxxAuthAdminProxy.GetUserByNameAsync(registration.EmailAddress).ConfigureAwait(false);
if (cssWebUser != null)
{
await EnrollUserAsync(response, registration).ConfigureAwait(false);
return new RegisterOnlineAccountResult { OnlineRegistrationAccountResultStatus = OnlineRegistrationAccountResultStatus.Success };
}
if (xxxAuthenticatedUser != null) return new RegisterOnlineAccountResult { OnlineRegistrationAccountResultStatus = OnlineRegistrationAccountResultStatus.WebRegisteredEmailFound };
await EnrollUserAsync(response, registration).ConfigureAwait(false);
registerOnlineAccountResult.OnlineRegistrationAccountResultStatus = OnlineRegistrationAccountResultStatus.Success;
}
else
{
await EnrollStartServiceUser(registration).ConfigureAwait(false);
registerOnlineAccountResult.OnlineRegistrationAccountResultStatus = OnlineRegistrationAccountResultStatus.Success;
}
return registerOnlineAccountResult;
}
private async Task EnrollUserAsync(LocatePersonResponse response, OnlineRegistration onlineRegistration)
{
await CreateUserOnlineAccountAsync(onlineRegistration).ConfigureAwait(false);
}
private async Task<bool> CreateUserOnlineAccountAsync(OnlineRegistration registration)
{
try
{
var request = new CreateUserAccountRequest
{
Description = $"Account created: {DateTime.Now:MM/dd/yyyy}",
AccountType = registration.IsResidential ? nameof(OnlineAccountType.xxxResidentialAcct) : nameof(OnlineAccountType.xxxCommercialAcct),
PersonId = registration.PersonId,
Password = registration.Password,
UserName = registration.EmailAddress,
CcbAccountId = registration.AccountNumber,
BusinessPersonId = !registration.IsResidential ? registration.MainPersonId : null
};
return await this._xxxAuthAdminProxy.CreateUserAccountAsync(request).ConfigureAwait(false);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw new ApplicationException(
$"EmailAddress: ({registration.EmailAddress}) - PersonId: ({registration.PersonId}) - AccountNumber: ({registration.AccountNumber}): Exception caught in AccountManager.Registration.CreateUserOnlineAccountAsync.",
ex);
}
}
If you have seen it here, the _xxxAuthAdminProxy is being called with two different methods 1. GetUserByNameAsync and 2. CreateUserAccountAsync, when condition that needs to happen is GetUserByNameAsync method should return a null where as CreateUserAccountAsync method should throw an exception. any help would be greatly helpful - thanks in advance.

I think you need to pick an exception that's a little lower in the food chain; you're targetting what would be intended for an app level handler.
Quote: You should derive custom exceptions from the Exception class rather than the ApplicationException class. You should not throw an ApplicationException exception in your code, and you should not catch an ApplicationException exception unless you intend to re-throw the original exception.

I am able to generate mock for one Condition, but not for another condition like, the method GetUserByNameAsync is returning null for the Proxy that I set up as
this._xxxAuthAdminProxy = Mock.Of<IxxxAuthAdminProxy>();
var xxxAuth = new Mock<IxxxAuthAdminProxy>();
xxxAuth.Setup(p => p.GetUserByNameAsync(It.IsAny<string>()))
.ReturnsAsync(mockxxxAuthResponseNull);
xxxAuth.Setup(p => p.CreateUserAccountAsync(It.IsAny<CreateUserAccountRequest>()))
.ThrowsAsync(new Exception());
But CreateUserAccountAsync is not returning exception, any help my friend, anything would be greatly helpful. Thank you.

I think I told you not to use "ApplicationException" for exceptions "you generate / throw" in you app ... use something else; e.g. throw new Exception("My test blew up as expected");

And I am getting the following error in the Unit Test:
Assert.ThrowsException failed. No exception thrown. Exception exception was expected.
--- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown ---
at System.Runtime.ExceptionServices.ExceptionDispatchInfo.Throw()
at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task)
--- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown ---

--- End of stack trace from previous location where exception was thrown ---
at System.Runtime.ExceptionServices.ExceptionDispatchInfo.Throw()
at System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.HandleNonSuccessAndDebuggerNotification(Task task)
Basically Unit test is failing because the Method is not throwing Exception, let it be any Exception, I want to just throw an Exception
I did change it as you said removed the ApplicationException, but still the Unit test is failing:
private async Task<bool> CreateUserOnlineAccountAsync(OnlineRegistration registration)
{
try
{
var request = new CreateUserAccountRequest
{
Description = $"Account created: {DateTime.Now:MM/dd/yyyy}",
AccountType = registration.IsResidential ? nameof(OnlineAccountType.PGEResidentialAcct) : nameof(OnlineAccountType.PGECommercialAcct),
PersonId = registration.PersonId,
Password = registration.Password,
UserName = registration.EmailAddress,
CcbAccountId = registration.AccountNumber,
BusinessPersonId = !registration.IsResidential ? registration.MainPersonId : null
};
return await this._pgeAuthAdminProxy.CreateUserAccountAsync(request).ConfigureAwait(false);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw new Exception("My test blew up as expected");
}
}

Yes I removed that as well, still not throwing any Exception, any idea my friend?
I did change it to this, still the Exception was not being generated:
[TestMethod]
public async Task RegisterOnlineAccountAsync_ExceptionTest()
Any help would be very very helpful my friend, it seems the problem is in the SetUp itself, I feel so, but I don't know how to generate Exception when the same Proxy was used before for a different method call.

I have an .NET 4.0 assembly; it is registered in GAC and works as part of a BizTalk “orchestration”.
Sometimes I get the following error - “Collection was modified; enumeration operation might not execute. : System.InvalidOperationException: Collection was modified; enumeration operation might not execute.”. I cannot reproduce it; when I run the same processing of the same data, my assembly does not generate the error in this place.
The error happens when I call ‘.Where(<condition>).ToArray()’ for a datatable object: an object of classd System.Data.TypedTableBase<mydatarowclass>.
Here is the code:
..................
int? setTypeGroupId;
...
return instances.WorkContributors.Where
(
c =>
!c.IsInterestedPartyNoNull()
&& c.InterestedPartyNo == publisherIpNo
&& c.SetTypeNo == 1
&& (c.RecordType == "SPU")
&& c.TypeCode == "E"
&& (!setTypeGroupId.HasValue ||
(setTypeGroupId.HasValue && c.SetTypeGroupID == setTypeGroupId))
)
.ToArray();
..................
The object ‘instances’ is a dataset – my class produced from System.Data.DataSet.
The property ‘instances.WorkContributors’ is a datatable: an object of class System.Data.TypedTableBase<mydatarowclass>.
The class MyDataRowClass is produced from System.Data.DataRow.
The call stack after the error was the following:
Collection was modified; enumeration operation might not execute. : System.InvalidOperationException: Collection was modified; enumeration operation might not execute.
at System.Data.RBTree`1.RBTreeEnumerator.MoveNext()
at System.Linq.Enumerable.<castiterator>d__97`1.MoveNext()
at System.Linq.Enumerable.WhereEnumerableIterator`1.MoveNext()
at System.Linq.Buffer`1..ctor(IEnumerable`1 source)
at System.Linq.Enumerable.ToArray[TSource](IEnumerable`1 source)
at MyProduct.FileParser.Types.CWR.PWRType.GetPublishers(CWRWorkInstances instances, Nullable`1 setTypeGroupId)
at MyProduct.FileParser.Validation.Concreate.PwrTypeValidation.ValidatePublisherNumber()
at MyProduct.FileParser.Validation.Concreate.PwrTypeValidation.Validate()

at MyProduct.FileParser.CWRParser.ProcessCWRFile(String fileName, Boolean wait, Boolean deleteFile, String sourceFileName)
I cannot understand why the error happens; and why it happens only sometimes and does not happen on the same processed data again.
The error “Collection was modified; enumeration operation might not execute.” Itself is pretty straightforward for me; but I do not see why it happens in that my code. The error is excepted if a code like this:
foreach (DataRow currRow in _someDataTable.Rows)
{
if ()
{
someDataTable.Rows.Remove(currRow);
}
}But my code above just wants to enumerate System.Data.TypedTableBase<mydatarowclass> and convert the result into an array.
Any ideas?

Thank you for the answer, but still not clear:
1. Is this supposed to fix the problem; or to make the problem “stably reproducible”?
2. In any case – what is the root cause of the problem?
