I just started looking into sqlcipher code base. I have two questions. First, I am interested in the logic/crypto part of sqlcipher source code. It looks to me that this part is implemented in C/C++ but I couldn’t able to get the source code. Would you point me to code if it is available. Second, does sqlcipher support a data recovery mechanism if the user forget a password?
The SQLCipher source code is publicly available on Github here. In terms of where you might start looking, I would suggest
src/crypto_impl.c. There is no means to extrapolate the data without having the key to the database as the entire content of the database is encrypted.
