C# Decrypt bytes from SQL Server EncryptByPassPhrase?

Following Replicate T-SQL DecryptByPassPhrase in C#, I am unable to get a simple encryption with MSSQL to descrypt in C#. The encrypted values in certain columns is necessary because the table is exported into Excel and Access on a regular basis so simple encryption is more than enough to "block" values without having to involve developers to (re)do views, etc.

In SQL Server 2012:

    select EncryptByPassPhrase( N'hello' , N'world'  ) 
-- returns 0x01000000AA959FFB3A8E4B06B734051437E198C8B72000A058ACE91D617123DA102287EB

In C#:

byte[] buf = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes( "0x010000003A95FA870ED699A5F90D33C2BF01491D9132F61BA162998E96F37117AF5DA0905D51EB6FB298EC88" );
// bytes emitted from the database
var cp = new TripleDESCryptoServiceProvider();
var m = new MemoryStream(buf);
cp.Key = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes( "hello" ); // throws
cp.IV = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes( "hello" ); // throws
CryptoStream cs = new CryptoStream( m , cp.CreateDecryptor( cp.Key , cp.IV ) , CryptoStreamMode.Read );
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader( cs );
string plainText = reader.ReadToEnd();

What should working C# code look like?

Thanks.

SQL Server 2017 uses SHA256 hashing of password + AES-256 encryption

Older versions use SHA1 hashing of password + 3DES-128 encryption

IV size is the same as block size: AES = 128 bits, 3DES = 64 bits

Padding mode: PKCS #7 Cipher mode: CBC

Data encrypted by server 2017 starts with "0x02", older versions start with "0x01".

// Example decrypt:
// UInt32 - "magic" (0xbaadf00d): 0d f0 ad ba
// UInt16 - unknown (always zero): 00 00
// UInt16 - decrypted data length (16): 10 00
// byte[] - decrypted data: 4c 65 74 54 68 65 53 75 6e 53 68 69 6e 69 6e 67

I believe the link you are following is suggesting a new way to encrypt and decrypt mimicking that of how the SQL EncryptByPassPhrase is made. So, you could only use the decrypt in C#, if you encrypted in C# as well.

Since, you already used EncryptByPassPhrase in SQL then I would suggest just using DecryptByPassPhrase in SQL before passing to C# code.

Example of your hello world encrypt and decrypt:

Declare @lEncryptedText VARBINARY(256) = (select ENCRYPTBYPASSPHRASE('hello','world'))
SELECT @lEncryptedText --Encrypted VALUE for world

SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR(100),DECRYPTBYPASSPHRASE('hello',@lEncryptedText)) --Decrypted Value
