I will probably use some punk solution like the following:

IV = hmac_sha256(key_iv_derivation, vm_name).take(16)
CT = aes_256_gcm(key_encrypt, pad(128, vm_name))
filename = base64(IV||CT)

Properties:

  • Obscures length of VM name. (As of Qubes 3.2, VM name can have at most 31 characters.)
  • Deterministic – IVs are deterministically generated.
  • Reversible – one can decrypt it with proper key.
  • Authenticated.
  • Hopefully secure.
  • Probably pretty non-standard. But I am OK with such a risk for hiding not-so-sensitive data in MVP.

Changes:

  • Will use base32 instead of base64 in order to support case-insensitive storages.
  • Probably smaller padding in order to maintain filenames at most 255.
  • CTR+HMAC instead of GCM, because I was not able to find a suitable implementation of GCM.
