Converting circular structure to JSON about crypto-js HOT 8 CLOSED

This means your json can't be stringified ... it's not related to Crypto-JS.

from crypto-js.

For those of you hitting this issue, there's a good chance that you're using a CryptoJS CipherParams rather than the string you're probably looking for. Quick fix is to call .toString() or .toString(<encoding type>) to get the actual string object rather than the attempting to work with the CipherParams after calling AES.encrypt(...).

We were only able to resolve this issue by switching to the CryptoES library. Not sure if this one is even actively maintained anymore.

I can console.log(JSON.stringify(info.user)); and its working fine. See my code below.

console.log(JSON.stringify(info.user));
// var userAES = CryptoJS.AES.encrypt(JSON.stringify(info.user), 'thisisakey');

Pretty strange because the error message is related to the JSON.stringify().

When you
var userAES = CryptoJS.AES.encrypt(JSON.stringify(info.user), 'thisisakey');

you must not
JSON.stringify(userAES);

+1 we got same issue

let configString = JSON.stringify(param[key]); //fine
let encryptedString = CryptoJS.AES.encrypt(configString, 'thekey') // Converting circular structure to JSON

Same issue at september 2019 😭
