[pkg-cryptsetup-devel] Bug#784129: [cryptsetup] Unlocking an aes:ecb-benbi volume with cryptsetup triggers input/output error

[Milan Broz]

> Cryptsetup  2:1.6.6-5 fails unlocking my aes:ecb-benbi crypted volume.

FYI this is fixed in 1.6.7, see
https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/issues/238

You have also workaround mentioned there (do not specify IV for ECB mode because
there is no initial vector in ECB mode - iow benbi is superfluous).

Anyway, ECB mode for disk encryption is not secure, I hope you do not use it for real data!
