Correct so far, assuming that you've entered a passphrase from the
keyboard.
echo -n "ttn39k7YiglePLvmmc6s+w==" | openssl base64 -d | openssl enc -d -aes-256-cbc
Wrong one. By default openssl assumes that plaintext is salted before
the encryption.
echo -n "ttn39k7YiglePLvmmc6s+w==" | openssl base64 -d | openssl enc -d -aes-256-cbc -nosalt
That one worked for me, but I've used a different passphrase, so the
ciphertext was different:
$ echo -n "That's the text" | openssl enc -aes-256-cbc -a -A -nosalt -k foo 2>/dev/null
3zGGAzM31Vsu9cax67TUrw==
$ echo -n 3zGGAzM31Vsu9cax67TUrw== | base64 -d | openssl enc -d -aes-256-cbc -nosalt -k foo 2>/dev/null
That's the text
