Unable to decrypt ciphertext encrypted with PKCS#1 v1.5 padding

[zackradisic]

Here is the code that I am using:

import { RSA } from "./src/deps.ts";

const privateKey = new RSA(RSA.parseKey(
  new TextDecoder().decode(await Deno.readFile("./secrets/private")),
));
const encrypted = await Deno.readFile("./encrypted");
const decrypted = await privateKey.decrypt(encrypted, {
  padding: "pkcs1",
});
console.log(new TextDecoder().decode(decrypted));

And I get error: Uncaught (in promise) Decryption error. The ciphertext is encrypted with the public key using PKCS#1 v1.5 padding. To test this out for yourself, here are the public/private keys and the hex encoded cipher text (which is the encrypted string hey!):

I have written code in Go to decrypt it and it seems to be working. Any ideas on what could be the problem? I'm not too knowledgeable on RSA encryption so there could be something I'm missing 🤷‍♀️
