I am looking to encrypt some data using Rijndael/AES in VBScript using a specific key and IV value. Are there any good function libraries or COM components that would be good to use?
I looked at CAPICOM; it allows a passphrase only, and won't allow setting specific key and IV values.
Old question- that really never gets old! One way is to declare encryption classes within vbscript, without needing external added COM objects or wrapper. The following example takes a string, encrypts and decrypts using Rijndael managed class:
'-----------------------------------------------------
Dim obj,arr,i,r,str,enc,asc
dim bytes,bytesd,s,sc,sd
set obj=WScript.CreateObject("System.Security.Cryptography.RijndaelManaged")
Set asc = CreateObject("System.Text.UTF8Encoding")
s="This is a private message"
bytes=asc.GetBytes_4(s)
obj.GenerateKey()
obj.GenerateIV()
set enc=obj.CreateEncryptor()
set dec=obj.CreateDecryptor()
bytec=enc.TransformFinalBlock((bytes),0,lenb(bytes))
sc=asc.GetString((bytec))
msgbox sc
byted=dec.TransformFinalBlock((bytec),0,lenb(bytec))
sd=asc.GetString((byted))
msgbox sd
'-----------------------------------------------------
Best,
One response suggested wrapping the RijndaelManaged class in COM. You could also wrap some other AES implementation in COM. I just tried SlowAES, which is a JavaScript implementation of AES. Wrapping it in COM via a Windows Script Component makes it callable from VBScript. I would recommend this only if you cannot use the .NET approach; I would guess the AES for .NET will be faster than the AES implemented in JavaScript.
In my tests of the COM-wrapped-SlowAEs, I used CBC mode, and the encryption was completely compatible with the RijndaelManaged class in .NET.
Here's the WSC; I left out the 3 .js files provided by SlowAES. You need to insert them unchanged where I marked the file.

If you also want a password-based key derivation capability, then you can grab the very succint JavaScript code for PBKDF2 here, and create another WSC for that, without too much trouble.
EDIT: I did what I described - grabbed the source for PBKDF2 and integrated it into the code for SlowAES. I also produced a second, independent implementation in C# that uses the built-in .NET class libraries to do the RFC 2898-key derivation and AES encryption.
The result is 3 test applications, one in C#, one in JavaScript and another in VBScript. The source is available. They all take the same set of arguments. They each use a RFC 2898-compliant key derivation function. You can specify the password, salt, IV, and plaintext, as well as the number of RFC 2898 iterations to use in the PBKDF2. You can easily verify that the ciphertext is the same for each of these test programs. Maybe this example will be useful for someone.
Somebody wrote a short tutorial on using AES is VBScript: http://www.example-code.com/vbscript/AesIv.asp
The module mentioned in that tutorial can be found at: http://www.chilkatsoft.com/refdoc/xChilkatCrypt2Ref.html
I know this question is old and OP disappeared, but it is worth noting for future vb6 users that VbCorLib now supports cryptography, including the dreaded Rijndael.
One option would be to create a simple wrapper class in .NET for the RijndaelManaged class from the .NET framework and expose it via COM Interop so you can call it from VBScript.
Here's my solution. It saves the the encryption key and initialization vector to a file so they can be reused.

strMyAesKeyFilename = "c:\Temp\objAes.Key" 'objAes.Key
strMyAesIvFilename = "c:\Temp\objAes.IV" 'objAes.IV
Set objFileSystem = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

objStream.Type = adTypeBinary
objStream.open
If (objFileSystem.FileExists(strMyAesKeyFilename) And objFileSystem.FileExists(strMyAesKeyFilename)) Then
objStream.LoadFromFile strMyAesKeyFilename
objAes.Key = objStream.Read
objStream.Close
objStream.Open
objStream.LoadFromFile strMyAesIvFilename
objAes.IV = objStream.Read

objAes.GenerateKey()
