c# - Using an RSA Public Key to decrypt a string that was encrypted using RSA Private Key

I know the main answer I am likely to get is why the hell would you want to do that?!

Unfortunately despite my protests I have to do it, even though I know it makes little sense.

I have functions written in .Net to decrypt using a private key, encrypt using a public key. I also RSA sign and verify and have a reasonable understanding of how this all work I think.

I am now being sent a value that is RSA encrypted using a private key which I am supposed to derive a usable value by decrypting using the public key.

I can't seem to figure out how to do this. Am I being an idiot? Is this a normal thing to do?

I am told by the person sending me the value that this is no problem in PHP. I don't know and haven't used PHP yet. I can't find a library to do it in any of the main languages I know i.e. C++, Java, C#. The server I am working on uses .Net.

I am hoping someone might be able help me.

It would be great if there is some kind of reasonable solution besides begging them to change what they are doing.

This is my method (updated from my previous bad one as pointed out by Iridium) but when I try to decrypt the value I get an exception

"Error occurred while decoding OAEP padding."

If I use rsa.Decrypt(bytes, false) I get a bad key exception.

public static string DecryptUsingPublic(string dataEncrypted, string publicKey)
    {
        if (dataEncrypted == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("dataEncrypted");
        if (publicKey == null) throw new ArgumentNullException("publicKey");
        try
        {
            RSAParameters _publicKey = LoadRsaPublicKey(publicKey, false);
            RSACryptoServiceProvider rsa = InitRSAProvider(_publicKey);

            byte[] bytes = Convert.FromBase64String(dataEncrypted);
            byte[] decryptedBytes = rsa.Decrypt(bytes, true);

            ArrayList arrayList = new ArrayList();
            arrayList.AddRange(decryptedBytes);

            i++;
        }
        return true;
    }

The two methods above InitRSAProvider and LoadRsaPublicKey were gotten out of tutorials to allow PEM keys as Strings to be used with .Net.

RSA is built into .NET: System.Security.Cryptography.RSA.

Encrypting using the public key and decrypting with the private key is one of the most common things people do with asymmetric algorithms, it allows anybody to send you something securely.

If you do it the other way: encrypt using the private key, and decrypt with the public key then it proves the message was sent by the holder of the private key. But because anyone presumably can get hold of the public key, people don't tend to encrypt the whole message, they instead just sign a hash of the data using the private key. Hence RSACryptoServiceProvider has Sign__ and Verify__ methods to do just that.

Still, there are Encrypt/Decrypt methods if your partner insists.

Saying that, I've found the Microsoft crypto classes a bit tricky to deal with and lacking in certain areas and much prefer the Bouncy Castle libraries.
