Python how to encode with RSA using modulus + exponent

Question

Hello i need to encode text with RSA using modulus and exponent + input

I have tried this, but am getting errors

            rsa_modulus = data['publickey_mod']
            rsa_exponent = data['publickey_exp']
            rsa_timestamp = data['timestamp']
            rsa_publickey = rsa.PublicKey(rsa_modulus, rsa_exponent)
            encrypted = rsa.encrypt(password,rsa_publickey)
            print(encrypted)

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'bit_length'

Answer 1

Try to encode your password:

encrypted = rsa.encrypt(password.encode('utf8'), rsa_publickey)

rsa.Encrypt takes a byte object
