Aug 21, 2013 at 15:15 comment added Maarten Bodewes IF you would go with a mode that relies on padding sizes to hide information on the plain text, then it should be documented very well within the protocol description. Otherwise switching to another mode such as counter mode later on would immediately expose the length. Note that adding a random number of bytes is not enough. Note also that padded modes of operation may be vulnerable to padding oracle attacks. This can be countered by adding a authentication tag (adding authenticity/integrity of the ciphertext).
