    Here is my test code.

    local key = "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
    local iv = "0123456789abcdef"

    local str = Cryptography.aesEncrypt("Hello, world!", key, iv, 1)
    local str_2 = Cryptography.aesDecrypt(str, key, iv, 1)

    print(str, str_2)


    The string is encrypted, but when it's decrypted there are 3 extra characters at the end. These characters are EXT (end of text) codes.

      Seems to be ok here. I ran:
      local key = "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
local iv = "0123456789abcdef"
 
local str = Cryptography.aesEncrypt("Hello, world!", key, iv, 1)
local str_2 = Cryptography.aesDecrypt(str, key, iv, 1)
 
print(("%02x,"):rep(#str):format(str:byte(1,#str)))
print(str_2)
print(("%02x,"):rep(#str_2):format(str_2:byte(1,#str_2)))
      and got:
      65,26,41,48,73,24,b0,9d,b2,10,4d,e0,83,d2,77,1b,
Hello, world!
48,65,6c,6c,6f,2c,20,77,6f,72,6c,64,21,
      No extra chars in decoded string...

      It also looks fine to me. You don't want to print an encrypted string plain to the text window, as it will show corrupted. Use the cool hex format example that hgy29 provided.

      Testing by concatenating to the ends of the string:
      local key = "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
local iv = "0123456789abcdef"
 
local str = Cryptography.aesEncrypt("Hello, world!", key, iv, 1)
local str_2 = Cryptography.aesDecrypt(str, key, iv, 1)
 
print(":" .. str_2 .. ":")
      Outputs:
      :Hello, world!:
