7.6.2 General Encryption Algorithm

Algorithm 1: Encryption of data using the RC4 or AES algorithms

used to decrypt RC4/AES encrypted PDF streams (buf)

buf - a string to decrypt ref - a PDF::Reader::Reference for the object to decrypt

# File lib/pdf/reader/aes_v3_security_handler.rb, line 29
def decrypt( buf, ref )
  cipher = OpenSSL::Cipher.new(@cipher)
  cipher.decrypt
  cipher.key = @encrypt_key.dup
  cipher.iv = buf[0..15]
  cipher.update(buf[16..-1]) + cipher.final
