11:43

looks like you shook it.

11:43

does, dunnit. cuz its a flatbed. gets the chip markings, mostly, but the pcb itself is out of focus by mm or 2.

11:43

anyway, if you can get factory probes on them pads, i would not even be surprised if you can just flash it without further ado.

11:44

doubt that it's quite so trivial, typically you gotta find how to hold it in reset so it doesn't boot up to its current fritz contents

11:44

right, there's that.

11:46

one interesting observation, is that the update mechanism lets you flash in arbitrary crapola into 'rw' section ( it simply won't jump to it if it doesn't pass rsa(sha256(payload)) ) . so theoretically could put a nop sled there, ending with jump into the magic half of unlock routine. and then expose the thing to beta/gamma, and perhaps in a few months it will Do The Right Thing

11:46

"gandalf". fucking morons.

11:46

but would prefer to find a purely softwaric pill (e.g. buffer overrun, or whatever means to get code exec)

11:47

this may take a lot of doing.

11:47

idea being, it would be a substantial help to have even one unlocked box to experiment with.

11:47

aha.

11:48

these fucktards! they wanna go about derping about "tin foil" and whatnot "unprofessional", then queue up to read all about "gandalf".

11:48

"oh but mp, it's different species of slime". no, it fucking isn't. all slime is the exact same identical species : itself.

11:49

not merely 'gandalf', but 'idle gandalf'!11

11:49

the sheer cheek.

11:51

mircea_popescu: a break of the rng would also do the job. ( admittedly , tall order , but listed for completeness. )

11:51

( the 'rma unlock' 32byte turd, is simply rng output )

11:51

accomodating fucking parents.

11:51

asciilifeform, how's the rng work ? maybe a bit of electric field can set out 1s ?

11:52

prolly it's the typical on-chip ring oscillator, plus bit of whitener.

11:52

the fact that h1 started life as fpga, suggests this.

11:52

you got a field generator ?

11:53

i got various things. problem is that i do not currently have a popped unit where i can see the effect of $manipulation on rng (or any other part, aside from general 'it crashed')

11:54

the lulzy bit is that likely, a thousand or more unlocked units exist, in the hands of various derps

11:55

an ounce of intel work would prolly beat ten pounds of lab wizardry in this case.

11:55

hm

11:55

( recall kgb maslennikov ? 'we dun break keys, we buy'em' )

11:55

problem is, they tend to be asexuate derps.

11:56

but, i can see the angle.

asciilifeform, my sluts don't score so much better.

12:07

you have no fucking idea what sorts of punishments it takes to de-ingrain the "now irc link turns off" processes they have.

12:08

it'd be easier to turn them out. ~literally~, this isn't some sort of rhetorical device. it would be easier to turn them into streetwalking whores than to turn them into sane people whose online presence has continuity.

12:09

the amount of washing it takes to recycle imperial-farmed cunt into useful slavery is mindnumbing.

12:09

'he will be a very well trained bear but never a world-class dancer' or how did it go.

12:09

12:09

12:09

"bitch, stop fucking picking at it" "oh sorry master."

12:09

2 minutes later.... "MOTHERFUCKER!!!"

12:10

but it's this unholy alliance of "it itches" vegetative signal and "pick at your scabs" low level motherly acculturation.

12:10

(this, by the way, is why you shouldn't permit women to run the house. it's way too fucking easy for them to fritz-chip the jtags.)

12:10

12:13

(and for the gandalfs in the peanut gallery : streetwalking is ~hard~. short of infantryman during war, streetwalker has the hardest, most biodemanding job there is. which is why i respect them a lot more than i respect githikipedia contributors)

12:17

here's a historical lul that mircea_popescu might find stimulating. asciilifeform ( and his brother, and a whole generation of folx ) grew up with a certain orc '100 bytes of ram, but hey it's fucking programmable' little box, http://www.alfredklomp.com/technology/mk-61 . and the Official b00k for it ( http://publ.lib.ru/ARCHIVES/G/GAYSHTUT_Aleksandr_Grigor'evich/_Gayshtut_A.G..html ) had various games (typically you had to draw on g

12:17

rid paper, to work the labyrinths, tank battles, etc ) ;

12:17

aha.

12:18

but as the '90s marched on, the thing did not, apparently, immediately fade away and die ( troo comps remained expensive, rare, until '93-'94ish ); so folx continued to write and circulate samizdat gamez : http://lordbss.pp.ru/pmk.html

12:18

ha.

12:18

one of these was 'reactor control' , with realistic constants, you had to ramp up reactor, control the rods and the sodium pump etc, object was to get max power but avoid meltdown

12:18

this is like saying, "Here's our companion games to a pair of dice".

12:18

o hey.

12:18

so the hilarious bit, is that folx wrote variations on the theme, 'sim whore', 'bordello'

12:19

that were in effect EXACTLY 'reactor control', but instead of sodium pump litres/sec, probability of runaway, etc. it was 'fucks per day', 'probability of VD', 'prob. of arrest', etc.

12:20

haha

12:21

( and there were astonishing oddities of other kinds, for this humble machine, e.g. a 'tetris' where, lacking a graphical display, you had to instead pick a numeric column where the piece drops, and give another number representing rotation, and keep whole thing in yer head... )

12:21

this, incidentally, is the true problem with nuclear reactors : exactly like the coffee grinder (see http://btcbase.org/log/2017-11-09#1735165 ), the probability of runaway is almost never 0.

12:21

Logged on 2017-11-09 16:38 asciilifeform: ben_vulpes: mircea_popescu earlier suggested , 'boltzmann distrib' of coffee speck velocities, almost certainly has high end that grinds pieces of your vessel into the output

12:21

12:21

12:22

said everything else. then they want to talk about tin foils.

12:22

asciilifeform, makes power, rather than beauty.

12:22

truth of the marketplace is that a cent of power was always worth millions of beauty.

12:22

noshit.jpg

12:24

it is sorta hilarious how a good 50-60% of the popular (they were hand-copied, and machine had no nonvolatile memory, you had to throw in the proggy each time you flipped the power on ) gamez, were based on the very soviet-flavoured diff. eqn. models the factory manual suggested

12:24

'land the capsule'

12:24

( legendarily, soyuz actually carried mk-52, reportedly, on board, a sort of mk-61 with i/o connector, as backup to main comp )

12:25

this is the fundamental difference -- in the original soviet, the little soviets were expected to plug selves into machine. which, while in a deeply feminine sort of way, is nevertheless somehow satisfying.

12:26

compared to life with this orc box, mircea_popescu was tsar and god with his z80 . but , behold, even in 100bytes you can do things.

12:26

the new soviets, however, are expected to hold it in hand -- the machine's all chinesium.

12:26

all these calculators came with full schems btw

12:26

'centerfold' in manual

12:26

complete with reference oscillograms. if yours dies (and not infrequently, it would) you were expected to repair.

12:27

whole consumerist thing only really started in earnest after the soviets went away.

12:28

meanwhile in oldies, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wA_0lSxkG8

12:28

the calculators, bk0010 ( tiny little pdp clone ! ), etc. is a sunken atlantis. it was all forgotten almost immediately when imported pc was carted in in qty

12:29

http://lordbss.pp.ru/pmk162.html << 'thief simulator'

12:29

much like the killer micro was forgotten almost immediately once the handheld tivos were carted in qty.

12:31

'killer micro' was colonized by microshit, and almost immediately began the march towards death, 'how do we keep plebes from copying gamez', culminating in today's boxen.

12:31

none of the girls own a desktop, you realize this ?

12:32

"oh, i got my phone".

12:32

12:32

ye olde mk61 is moar of computer. even tho poor orcistan never even invented soldermask, pcb was bare, like if i made it here in my kitchen.

12:32

cuz you could actually program! it.

12:34

anyway. i'm starting to think i'll simply add a "owns desktop" disqualifier to the list.

12:34

disqualifier?

12:34

it's how it worked in the 90s, right, you went to a new kid's house, had no computer could not be friends, evidently underclass only good to shine your shoes.

12:34

oh aa

12:34

qualifier, then?

12:34

why should this have ever changed.

12:34

asciilifeform, well, "no computer, you can't play" is a disqualifier. "obedient, you've made it" is a qualifier.

12:34

aa then makes sense

12:35

asciilifeform realizes that he doesn't actually know anybody in meatspace, even elderly relatives, who does not own a desktop of ~some~ form

12:35

you know it's like >pi per capita here ? i recently counted, it's a scandal.

12:35

12:36

12:36

12:36

why shouldn't they work.

it's definitely in interesting category

15:16

all i've been able to find is that 1) it is an arm cortex-m , prolly licensed 2) started life as fpga ( see google's src, comments repeatedly refer to earlier vers as 'fpga' , then , later, 'g-chip' )

15:16

it also has onboard flash

15:16

( the cr50 rom is ~not~ kept in the winbond spi rom where the boot loader ( google's crippled coreboot ) lives )

15:17

asciilifeform: well in thinkpads we have fun gate array

15:17

that we are reversing

15:17

(PMH-* )

15:17

swiftgeek: in re cr50, i am specifically interested in whatever factory test pads exist , with which the thing may be filled up with initial fw on manufacture

15:17

asciilifeform: well you should be only concerned first about black boxing it

15:17

if these are found, and found to work, it is likely to be the shortest path to proper jailbreak

15:18

black boxing ?

15:18

ie. it doesn't look like a necessary component to me

15:18

unfortunately it is

15:18

so making something equivalent first would be beneficial

15:18

they moved power supply init into it

15:18

asciilifeform: that's what i mean by that :D

15:19

it sounds like you can replace it easily by some dumb components

15:19

swiftgeek: see https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform/ec/+/master/board/cr50/gpio.inc ( what is known of the pin functions )

15:20

asciilifeform: so it's necessary and it's like PMH but with mcu?

15:20

so far we know that it handles the power button signal; the reset magic combo on the kbd; and the 3.3v rail bringup. it also handles the usb debug functionality that you get with the cable linked earlier

15:20

what i mean is

15:20

is host communicating with it to do something important to keep machine alive?

15:20

but conceivably you could , at some expense, come up with a pad-for-pad substitute, and lift the thing, then solder to the balls

15:20

or is it just some stupid bloat

15:21

swiftgeek: the way it is connected now, the box won't actually power up without it

15:21

asciilifeform: well you only need to do it once

15:21

not once, but for each unit

15:21

asciilifeform: after that once you have confirmed model of black box and from then you can figure out something way more efficient

15:22

swiftgeek: asciilifeform's orig plan was to sell cleansed c101pa machines. if this said cleansing requires lifting a bga, and attaching a manufactured replacement , we will be talking about considerably different cost than if the machines can be cleansed in 10min via software, via debug snake.

15:22

makes sense ?

15:22

asciilifeform: i'm only speaking about doing it once in history xD

15:22

one unit no more

15:23

sure, but i want 1000+ units, rather than 1 elaborately handcrafted.

15:23

asciilifeform: the point is to take some lessons from that 1 unit

15:23

it will be silly if end result is just few modwires :>

15:24

google's src already contains everything you need, in theory, to make a hypothetical benign replacement for cr50

15:24

that ~only~ brings up 3v, etc

15:24

however this approach is expensive, in manual labour, and its cost borders on that of simply making new machines from 0

15:24

which makes it of secondary interest to us

15:24

eh

15:25

and as soon as we start doing it, they'll start pouring epoxy, and then cost goes up yet again

15:25

i'm telling you that it will be simpler to do it once and this way confirm every part of it

15:25

looking at some code you found there isn't the same as poking the actual thing

15:26

swiftgeek: if you'd like to take a c101pa and deball the bga and try this, and post article, i promise to read

15:26

sadly i am not currently equipped for such an experiment

15:26

WEP852D+

15:26

they are cheap

15:26

i have a very similar machine

15:26

ok skip WEP, it's a whitelabel thing

15:26

that's not the sticking point

15:27

it's a tiny bga chip that you can remove yourself easily

15:27

sticking point is to solder to the balls

15:27

hmm

15:27

yes anybody can lift bga ( tricky to do without cracking the board, but doable if you are patient )

15:27

not tricky xD

15:27

asciilifeform: x200t already requires a bit of rework

15:27

soldering however many balls are under it, to bodge wires, and attaching logic analyzer etc, is the headache

15:27

in terms of labour there are many people who would lift it and reflow for 5-10 usd per operation, even here in russia, but epoxy will ruin such perfect model =)

15:28

what you'd want, is to solder an interposer b/w the cr50 and the pcb

15:28

and get a trace of all of the signals

15:28

( if you simply lift it, there'll be no signals, board doesn't come up )

15:28

|\n: it's not that big chip xD

15:29

for something that silly cleaning it up will take order of magnitude more than rework xD

15:29

swiftgeek: out of curiosity, what's your interest in this particular box ?

15:29

coreboot dev ?

15:29

nothing , it went up on reddit

15:29

15:30

swiftgeek: why do you need a dead unit, why not buy fresh one

15:31

ultra-low budget project ?

15:31

asciilifeform: e-waste, i'm against it

15:31

not really possible to thoroughly reverse things without creating a pile of rubbish, sadly

15:31

using e-waste for research pretty much lowers amount of it

15:31

i'm on my 2nd board..

15:31

asciilifeform: sure it is , it's the best way

15:32

but c201pa isn't very popular and people forget about me

15:32

with thinkpads we had much more fun

15:32

to be clear, asciilifeform is working with c101pa .

15:32

we pretty much understand in full depth what thinkpad is

15:32

( i do not yet know what is in the 201pa )

15:33

any intel on supply chain of this stone? had to ask

15:33

not currently

15:33

|\n: best suspicion thus far is that it is a 'hardcopy fpga' (cheap, relatively, method for getting chip baked, they apply a custom metallization mask to a stock crystal)

15:33

any other devices with the extra similar one (even with brushed label)?

15:34

and remember that silly thing where people claimed that quality of thinkpads plummeted since IBM stopped making thinkpads and lenovo took over?

15:34

as if there was some noticeable change xD

15:34

|\n: only chromebook. afaik all recently-rolledout units, have it

15:34

swiftgeek: i definitely noticed the change.

15:34

IBM didn't make a single thinkpad since at least T20

15:34

having used ~every thinkpad made.

15:35

T line belongs to USI till T400/500, then lenovo took over

15:35

swiftgeek: if you are a thinkpad aficionado, there is a patched x60 bios in the logs, iirc 2015

15:35

we have several people here, using it

15:35

asciilifeform: i'm from #libreboot , dev :)

15:35

aa

15:36

swiftgeek: i actually started with attempt to port generic coreboot to c101pa, and ended up finding the cr50 by accident

15:36

asciilifeform: TrackPoint is 80C51 blob so we are reversing that too :)

15:36

neato

15:36

c101pa also includes a trackpad with flashable blob fw

15:36

well traskpoint is mask rom

15:36

thus far i know nothing about it aside from the update/reflash mechanism (it is done via the ec)

15:36

i also have a sample fw blob

15:36

but this is for much later.

15:37

but patents are expiring so it's really pressing to make libre trackpoint, even at scale modem

15:37

*model

15:37

personally, i'd consider a box with no trackpad function, to be usable

15:37

but perhaps that's just me

15:38

anyway so far you have took some guesses that it's a infeon chip right?

15:39

it certainly doesn't look like one

15:39

swiftgeek: to complete the picture, my initial interest in cr50 was in the debug functionality; the thing can override #WP signal and rewrite the EC and boot roms , via usb snake. so it'd be quite convenient to have access. however the factory firmware locks it.

15:39

it is not an infineon, this is more or less certain

15:39

google baked it as a replacement for the infineon.

15:40

machine is from 2013?

15:40

( i cannot rule out the possibility that it was built in cooperation with, or at the facility of , infineon; it is stamped 'TWN' so this is at least theoretically hinted )

15:40

swiftgeek: 2018

15:40

huh?

15:40

i uncrated it in end of april

15:40

swiftgeek voiced for 30 minutes.

15:40

from this pic, what's the newest date code ?

15:41

winbond is from 2011

15:41

that winbond's been in production since early 2000s

15:41

( it's the bootloader fw, btw )

15:41

sure but they are not using old stock

15:41

the c101pa itself was introduced in '17

15:41

ah 101pa

15:42

i confused the 2 for 1 and this is the thing?

15:42

the h1 is the item in the right hand side of the photo

15:42

marked in purple

15:42

lol correct

15:42

'H1B2C'

15:42

asciilifeform: so that whole time i was thinking this is c201pa

15:42

aa

15:42

nope

15:43

asciilifeform: what's the name of the board?

15:43

http://www.loper-os.org/pub/c101pa_open.jpg << machine

15:43

asciilifeform: yeah i only care about board xD

Logged on 2018-06-11 15:41 asciilifeform: for completeness, http://www.loper-os.org/pub/c101pa/mb_top.jpg + http://www.loper-os.org/pub/c101pa/mb_btm.jpg ( apologies for the sad photos, they came out of a flatbed, evidently not ideal tool for this job )

15:44

c201pa is called speedy

15:44

this one is 'bob'

15:44

also apparently was known as 'gru' in early in-house versions

15:44

pretty awful but again wifi on m.2 card

15:44

( according to amstan , a fella from #linux-rockchip who introduced himself as one of the designers, but is rather tight-lipped )

15:44

so if anything comes you can replace it lol

15:45

wifi is soldered down on these

15:45

asciilifeform: is it connected over sdio or pcie or usb?

15:45

but in theory you can plug in usb wifi etc

15:45

asciilifeform: yes correct

15:45

asciilifeform: m.2 comes in many form factors

15:45

swiftgeek: the wifi ? on this one ? seems to be on pci bus

15:45

asciilifeform: great then you can replace it !

15:45

with reballing etc. lol.

15:45

no reballing lol

15:45

it's m.2 card

15:46

there's no socket on the pcb

15:46

the module is soldered on

15:46

yep

15:46

i can't guess dimensions properly so let's assume it's the same as with c201pa

15:47

M.2 Type 1216

15:47

swiftgeek: you can infer exact dimension from the usbc jack

15:47

( or the plain usb3 )

15:48

shitty sparklan example http://www.sparklan.com/p2-products-detail.php?PKey=77ffCKwjlQdwb8Ih1Lte5lnBX2_gCozga_6dk6DCy0s&WNSQ-261ACN(BT)

15:48

yep looks like the same footprint

15:49

how would you go about lifting it without ending up reflowing the internals?

15:49

be sane

15:49

prolly would need ir preheater for the underside ?

15:49

not necessarily IR preheater or anything fancy but (any) preheater would be nice

15:50

due to bending and stresses due to differential heating

15:50

aha

15:50

still with patience it shouldn't do that even if you don't have preheater

15:50

and it kinda depends on thermal mass in that area

15:50

swiftgeek: if you end up doing it, plz consider publishing the procedure

15:51

why xD

15:51

it's normal thing

15:51

asciilifeform: grab yourself pile of e-waste and practice on that :>

15:51

like anatomical practice on corpses, the approach has its obvious limits

15:51

( waste pcb won't tell you that you have not reflowed/mutilated/stress-fractured something )

15:52

except that level up is grab pile of e-waste

15:52

and fix them

15:52

at any rate i am not presently concerned with the 80211 card

15:52

wistron thinkpads are pretty decent when it comes to repair

15:52

thus far i know how to cut power to it, and this suffices for my purpose

15:52

(X series till x230 afair)

15:52

( its rail is controlled via EC )

15:53

X240 was made by compal-lenovo joint venture

15:53

and afair end result was worst aspect of them both combined

15:53

(compal alone makes the best boards for debugging /repair)

15:53

you can diagnose compal board in 5 minutes flat

15:54

(given schematics and boardview)

15:54

currently i am not very interested in intel iron

15:54

asciilifeform: well compal makes tons of things xD

15:54

hence investigation of c101pa and similar

15:54

remember osmocombb moto things?

15:54

compal made them afair xD

15:55

https://osmocom.org/projects/baseband/wiki/MotorolaC123 << these ?

15:55

yep

15:56

yeah compal :D

15:57

swiftgeek: given your introduction ( http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-11#1822589 ) i assume you may be interested in verifying fact that cr50 is not a subfunctionality of the ordinary (i.e. kept in winbond spi ) bootrom or the EC controller ('nuvoton' arm , visible in right hand of photo ). this is very simple to do:

↖ ↖

15:57

Logged on 2018-06-11 19:11 swiftgeek: doing simple fact checking, http://www.loper-os.org/?p=2433 doesn't mark clearly fritz chip

15:58

disable the spi boot rom using the method shown in http://www.loper-os.org/?p=2382 article. then insert the 'suzyq' debug cable, shown in http://www.loper-os.org/?p=2415 ;

15:58

you will observe that you are still able to communicate with the machine

15:58

because you are talking to cr50, which is active at all times, even when 'off'

15:58

and it does not rely on the cpu (referred to as 'AP' in google's srcs)

15:58

or the EC

15:59

welp that's interesting and if it spews out a lot of uart then it's most likely running on some core

15:59

it runs on the h1 device pictured in h1.jpg.

15:59

in fact , if you are so fond of lifting bga, lift the cpu , the spi rom, and the ec, and you will find that you still get the /tty/USB0 shell

16:00

!!up |\n

16:00

|\n voiced for 30 minutes.

16:00

oh it's an entire shell?

16:00

that's interesting for sure

16:00

btw you will get EC uart on /dev/ttyUSB1

16:00

and cpu uart ( from the rk3399 ) on /dev/ttyUSB2

16:01

the latter , you can get root shell on, on stock machine if it is in dev mode

16:01

asciilifeform: then i would really recommend finding dead one and sending chip to zeptobars

16:01

swiftgeek: i intend to send a unit to zeptobars in near future. i do not however expect any interesting result, afaik no 22nm or similar density device has ever been publicly reversed

16:02

asciilifeform: why would you expect that llol

16:02

i doubt it will be below 65nm

16:02

got example of a successful public reversing of any recent (i.e. post-1995) crystal ?

16:02

i'd luvv to be proven wrong on this subj

16:03

xtal? who reverses that? :D

16:03

not clock crystal, lol

16:03

i mean, asic die.

16:03

sorry, ru world terminology

16:03

asciilifeform: they are marked usualy on die

16:03

no need to reverse really, just look at it

16:04

lol i was not speaking of timing xtal

16:04

hopefully layers won't need to be removed

16:04

given as it is a tpm/drm crock of shit, i fully expect false metal masks and the other joys of 'tamper resistence'

16:04

but if they are bunch of dicks then first visible layer will be just metal blocking chip from the view

16:04

asciilifeform: is it TPM for real?

16:04

or do you just call it that

16:05

swiftgeek: look in the src, it incorporates tpm

16:05

i.e. 100% replacement of the old infineon they formerly used

16:05

then yeah inform zeptobars about the need to remove metal layers

16:05

it will make for interesting post lol

16:06

sigh i think i lost video about removing layers xD

16:07

the sad bit is that it is many yrs of labour, to go from even a high quality die shot, to functionality

16:07

asciilifeform: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSW8dZeE1yM

16:07

asciilifeform: you won't :D

16:08

it so happens that i know how decapping etc is done.

16:08

the point is to see something in it

16:09

swiftgeek: my specific interest is to get arbitrary code exec on the device.

16:09

rather than, say, to fill photo album with pretty pics.

16:09

asciilifeform: sure but not looking can double the work

16:09

swiftgeek: out of curiosity, what would you look for in a die shot ?

16:10

asciilifeform: possible theories of what PMH7 is were pretty wild till we realized it's TC200G

16:10

i finally realized from leftover clues

16:10

but it would be clearly marked on the die as well

16:10

i, for instance, would like to know which fpga was their starting point. and where its factory test pads are.

16:10

and whether there is any mechanism to inhibit them

16:10

16:11

but this is still in progress.

16:11

loper_os_cr50: hello ?

16:11

well you will see standard cell library

16:11

eventually somebody will match it to factory

16:12

swiftgeek: you know how this usually ends, right ?

16:12

asciilifeform: just like via matched their to what asmedia stole from them

16:12

imaginary, just in theory, can it be some ST72264G2

16:12

fun case

16:12

the way it usually ends, is that we learn something useful just in time for the device to go out of print.

16:12

asciilifeform: remember that recent AMD chipset from amdflaws?

16:13

which is what the designer was banking on when he put in the false metallization layers etc.

16:13

sure

16:13

asmedia made it, using standard cell library stolen from VIA

16:13

and i was wondering why we don't see so much VIA chipsets anymore xD

16:14

oh wait that's another filing lol

16:15

at any rate, my current approach will be to do some fuzzing of the cr50 console and slave spi interfaces

16:15

this one https://insight.rpxcorp.com/litigation_documents/12326879

16:15

if i can exploitably crash the thing , my job is done

16:15

16:15

Logged on 2018-06-11 15:46 asciilifeform: one interesting observation, is that the update mechanism lets you flash in arbitrary crapola into 'rw' section ( it simply won't jump to it if it doesn't pass rsa(sha256(payload)) ) . so theoretically could put a nop sled there, ending with jump into the magic half of unlock routine. and then expose the thing to beta/gamma, and perhaps in a few months it will Do The Right Thing

16:16

anyway back to the name

16:16

asciilifeform: do you know what is the name of the board yet or not ?

16:16

it's often close to coreboot name

16:16

what do you mean by 'name' ?

16:16

google's product code is 'bob'

16:17

dev version of same, was 'gru'

16:17

bob ? xD

16:17

microsoft bob?

16:18

September 1, 2017 Asus Chromebook Flip C101PA Bob rk3399 etc

16:19

yeah then judging from c201pa entry

16:19

it's called bob

16:19

you will find the string in the boot rom fw also

16:19

that will make for shitty search results in google

16:20

bob repair guide

16:20

lol

16:20

there is very little to be had in the search results, other than the src repo itself

16:20

they are doing this shitty naming on purpose

16:20

so i won't find anything xD

16:21

c101pa finds various retailers, and, if you dig persistently, asciilifeform's www, and that's currently more or less it.

16:21

to be fair, it's a pretty recent box.

16:22

ok can't find anything on any usual suspects

16:23

it should appear about now for that device

16:24

swiftgeek: here, btw, is the factory boot rom (crippled coreboot) from that winbond : http://loper-os.org/pub/c101pa/factory_rom.bin

16:24

you can extract strings from it, and see which bob rev etc

16:24

asciilifeform: repair guide is something that asus supplies for their devices

16:24

it's just a block diagram and power sequencing / tree

16:24

repair guide only shows you how to get the box open, really

16:24

no xD

16:24

it doesn't show that at all xD

16:25

not much use ( it is not difficult to open, and the c100pa published disassembly applies to this one, the screws are in same places )

16:25

there is nothing usefully removable on the mb, aside from the heat sink

16:25

so i'm not sure what you expect to find in a vendor repair book

16:25

just board shots from 2 sides with few testpoints, block diagram and power sequencing / tree

16:25

that's it

16:25

aa

16:25

i have a pretty good idea of the power sequencing, from reading the ec and cr50 srcs

16:25

but sure.

16:26

asciilifeform: so if you have some asus authorized repair shop

16:26

bring cookies

16:26

and vodka

16:26

lol what does 'repair shop' do aside from swapping mb

16:26

( i do it right here with 10min of work )

16:26

silly stuff like fuses apparently

16:27

asciilifeform: i don't consider swapping a board as repair

16:27

yes in china there are repair shops that lift bga etc.

16:27

but you will not find these in usa.

16:27

i thought you were in russia

16:27

nope

16:27

that was |\n

16:27

ah

16:27

then just bring cookies and whatnot

16:28

it never hurts trying

16:28

i don't see this as a productive line of probing

16:28

(at the end of their shift)

16:28

board-swapping monkeys.

16:28

nah

16:29

you need to at least check some points c'mon

16:29

srsly, try walking into repair with chromebook. 'we can reset this for you for $50', lol

16:29

asciilifeform: i would bake cookies and bring them some xd

16:30

the schem, for instance, is not given to repair contractors. or i would already have found it.

16:30

they are

16:30

asciilifeform: sometimes it's schematics sometimes it's boardview alone only

16:30

asciilifeform: if something ever leaks it first appears on chinafix xd

16:30

right

16:30

and it ain't there.

16:30

last i saw.

16:31

what i mean is that chromebooks aren't popular in china

16:31

fwiw i don't have any use for anything short of the schem

16:31

so likeliness of it leaking on its own is tiny

16:31

i have already identified all of the major components

16:31

asciilifeform: well lol, it's about netlist

16:31

well yes, the schem

16:31

fwiw the only nonstandard chip is the h1.

16:32

we need it to have something proper

16:32

everything else, is off-the-shelf

16:32

otherwise you are literally reversing open source code to figure out something that is presented clearly and for sure in boardview/schematics

16:32

that m.2 module thing took seriously way too much time for us xD

16:33

according to amstan , the fella claiming to be a designer of c101pa , everything connected with cr50 is deeply trade secret, and shared with no one outside of google.

16:33

i only realized it when investigating some newer SSDs

16:33

pfffff

16:33

but i have no way to verify the truth of what he said, aside from noticing that there is 0 discussion anywhere on the net, aside from #trilema and my www, of the h1.

16:33

( if you know of a counter-example, please link )

16:34

together with your explanation of purpose of the chip

16:34

it's not possible xD

16:34

either chipie does far less or the thing is secret

16:35

so far my only clue that h1 actually runs the given fw , is that i was able to flash in a vendor update : http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-08#1821699 and ended up with a slightly different, in the ways suggested by the src, console

16:35

Logged on 2018-06-08 17:15 asciilifeform: i was able to flash in the https://gsdview.appspot.com/chromeos-localmirror/distfiles/cr50.r0.0.10.w0.3.4.tbz2 image ; it supports a few moar commands, including 'rma open' returned-to-factory unlocker thing. but result was , unsurprisingly, 'with notes from hitler only' : http://www.loper-os.org/pub/c101pa/c101pa_unlock_nodice.txt

16:36

whether they use it or not it's up to them xD

16:36

just like apple geniuses

16:36

with that amount of tools you could fix those devices during a coffee break xD

16:37

a chinese shop could, for instance, mount the http://www.loper-os.org/pub/c101pa_dbg.jpg ( 'google servo' ) connector, on to the vacant pads. BUT this does not give me anything that i do not already have via the 'suzyq'.

16:38

libreboot thinkpad doesn't have it easy, neither BSDLs nor XOR test chains are described for our montevina targets

16:38

not to mention that i do not have the 'servo' device, nor see anything to be won from building it ( it gives access to the consoles, which i already have, and spi, which i already have via soldered probes, and that's it. )

16:38

asciilifeform: ask paulk-*

16:40

sure it was planned and everything was so pompous about it

16:40

i didn't know they have actually made it finally

16:40

at any rate i encourage folx who think that i dreamed it all, to build the snake ( i posted schem ) and do the exact experiment suggested earlier in http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-11#1822821 .

16:46

hmm let's take last ditch detour, FCC ID

yeah another one of those modular certification

just m.2 module

16:49

16:49

it's a new form of getting FCC certification

16:49

and you get confirmation on size

16:49

m.2 1216

16:50

swiftgeek: understand, i have a quite specific aim in re this machine, outlined in http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-11#1822866 . i do not particularly care re the irrelevant details, e.g. the shape of the antennae in m2, or the exact diameters of the screw holes, etc.

16:50

Logged on 2018-06-11 20:09 asciilifeform: swiftgeek: my specific interest is to get arbitrary code exec on the device.

16:50

asciilifeform: sure, but you can replace card :)

16:50

i can also 'replace the card' by switching off its power rail via ec and inserting usb nic dongle.

16:51

so this part is not so interesting imho.

16:51

but i will add, cr50 also hangs from same vreg's enable line and can switch it... back on

16:51

( afaik strictly via the console, but this remains to be determined )

16:52

i've established that cr50 ~will~ accept fw update if ver is incremented and rsa signature is valid. so anybody with google's rsa key and 10 seconds of physical access can insert new fw into cr50.

16:53

asciilifeform: ditto for any other TPM

16:53

( this was possible because i purchased a unit having cr50.r0.0.10.w0.3.3 fw )

16:54

what i'm annoyed about is that infeon is not distributing updates directly to consumers

16:54

so if somebody has separate module they are left vulnerable

16:54

swiftgeek: the typical x86 pc 'infineon' etc tpm, cannot do such interesting things as overriding bios write protect, accessing microphone, etc

16:54

so 'it's a tpm' is not anything like whole story.

16:54

asciilifeform: it kinda can in very specific circumstances

16:54

i am not particularly interested in infineon, you can safely desolder it from any box that has it

16:54

and render it harmless

16:54

sure

16:55

fuck riscv. it was deliberately designed with no arithmetical carry, to cripple cryptography.

16:58

how does j2 compare? :P

16:58

j2 at least has the virtue of being small, and fitting in ice40 fpga.

16:59

so does picorv32

16:59

( or maybe not quite fitting, but it's close )

16:59

understand, i can have ice40 boards to fit lappy chassis roll off conveyor in 6mo, if i want.

16:59

but would like to try cleansing commercial arm64 board, first.

17:00

if none can be cleansed -- we make from scratch, yes.

17:00

yeah i was just saying about having TPM module implemented in open manner

17:00

why the FUCK would you want 'open' manacles ?

17:01

what does it even mean.

17:01

how about NO manacles.

17:01

then everything would need to be implemented properly in SoC

17:01

no, TPMs _can_ be used to secure your own stuff if _you_ control them

17:01

not really trustworthy if they have non-free firmware on them, but theoretically they have a use case

17:01

hl`: nope.

17:02

hl`: not exactly that case either

17:02

they're a nsa boobytrap, sold under the fraudulent pretense of 'security'

17:02

over in the civilized world, we http://trilema.com/2013/how-to-airgap-a-practical-guide/ our crypto.

17:02

no magic chips needed.

17:02

hl`: it depends on root of trust being somewhere else

17:02

whole concept of 'root of trust' is a crock of shit.

17:02

otherwise it can be pretty easily replayed

17:02

we don't pki, and we don't ssl.

17:03

that doesn't protect against physical attacks.

17:03

hl`: you don't need physical attack there really

17:03

hl`: i am not interested in buying iron that specifically protects against everybody-but-nsa physical attack.

17:03

and i am definitely not interested in iron that protects against ~my~, the owner's, physical attack.

17:03

my machine. i read or flip whatever fucking bits i want.

17:03

hl`: if you have more devices on same bus you can figure out something to sniff it, and later replay

17:04

hl`: but OTP root of trust is not a solution either

17:04

yes, exactly. i'm talking about the use of owner-controlled TPMs to secure against other parties.

17:04

tell me again why i would want 'tpm' if i have an airgapped 1990s machine for all computations on secrets.

17:04

hl`: especially when you think about reselling the device

17:05

you don't resell crypto hardware, you thermite it

17:05

in a barrel.

17:05

http://trilema.com/2014/spy-stuff/ << like this.

17:05

asciilifeform: it depends on having root-of-trust (tpm isn't it), then it's a fun store of secrets

17:06

my 'root of trust' is iron that i assembled with own hands, out of soviet components, and sealed with glitter polish. fuck fritz tpm.

17:06

if there is no root of trust on device then it's just another layer of obfuscation

17:06

there's not really that much point to tpms if physical attacks aren't in your threat model. if they are, they can provide resistance against evil maids, etc.

17:06

hl`: how much do you like google's tpm, which opens in 3 seconds to 'evil maid' with the magic rsa key ?

17:07

hl`: softbrick in thinkpad provides resistance against evil maids :)

17:07

asciilifeform: completely unacceptable in my view, since it's anti-owner control.

17:07

to be clear, any company which ships chips fused to only run their code gets a 'fuck you' from me

17:07

whole concept of 'tpm' is explicitly counter to owner control. starting from when it was called 'palladium' and pushed by ms.

17:07

hl`: 1. lock device in dock (with key), softbrick, profit

17:07

asciilifeform: not exactly. the fundamental premise is just to measure the computing environment - this can be used to pro-owner ends if you control the tpm.

17:08

this is the fundamental fallacy that resulted in a market empty of honest iron.

17:08

if i cannot audit the contents of the device, it is impossible to prove the nonexistence of magic key.

17:08

pretty much - agreed that TPMs with nonfree firmware (i.e. all of them which currently exist) are pretty dubious for that reason.

17:09

yep

17:09

(especially since they have a bloody _firmware update_ capacity. !)

17:09

crypto on single-die device of modern (i.e. past 25 yrs ) manufacture, is a losing proposition.

17:09

no matter how you cut it.

17:09

hl`: we have seen plenty mask rom exploits already

17:09

swiftgeek: hmm, can you elaborate?

17:09

swiftgeek: go and maskrom-exploit my made-in-zelenograd-in-1985 cpu.

17:10

it still has ram and you can exploit it

let's take an example of trustworthy iron : K573RF4 ( https://eandc.ru/pdf/mikroskhema/k573rf4.pdf )

17:14

asciilifeform: that's actually an interesting idea - i've toyed with a similar idea previously, though for different applications. basically, my idea was to come up with some way of algorithmically generating algorithms such that the algorithm generator can know the correct answer computationally easily, but where the structure of the algorithm is highly randomised such that it resists analysis in the

17:14

general case - basically using the halting problem as a trapdoor function.

17:15

asciilifeform: those packages are expensive and cute :)

17:15

hl`: google chip fingerprinting

17:15

this is an eprom. and i've had them in physical possession long enuff to know that they weren't touched by fucking nato. and , on top of this, i can physically photo the crystal without decap.

17:15

DARPA was messing with that a lot

17:15

i.e., you'd have to solve the halting problem to write a program which can analyse the generated programs in the general case, meaning that any computational malevolence (compromised silicon, etc.) can only compute the result of the algorithm by executing it unless someone solves the halting problem

17:16

swiftgeek: yeah.

17:23

otherwise i will exploit other device on the bus and replay it remotely

17:24

and in x86 case that happens to be EC

17:24

that's actually a fair point too. as implemented in e.g. PCs nowadays, even putting the closed firmware issues aside, the way they are integrated is _not_ secure. they're just connected using open pins to the CPU, you could easily replay everything

17:24

(or worse - ME)

17:25

(see TPM reset attacks. the TPM specification people claim that these were fixed with TPM1.2, this is not correct however)

17:25

yep that makes it possible even with root of trust

17:26

but exploiting TPM firmware so much that it resets

17:26

and TPM implemented so poorly that it doesn't reset x86 with it

17:26

in darpa land they do what in civilized world is called 'освоение бюджета'.

18:19

each wunderwaffen has a seekrit committee , with nsa-vetted gentry, and a larger nonseekrit ('commercial'), for ladling out grantolade to academics and quasiacademics

18:19

seekrit committee generally concerned with specifics of applications (i.e. anything where you gotta know the identity of intended victim, say)

18:20

the nonseekrit -- with the bulk of the implementation detail.

21:48

( either that or it's a sad and unrouted ball entirely )

maybe a low power xray shot would actually be worth it, see if there's any lone balls.

21:55

unrelated to the b4 pin thing

21:55

this was the 'soft' reset-to-factory , at some point presumably worked ( their 'gsctool' thing, supports sending it )

21:56

originally this made you pull out the battery to prove that you opened the box, etc.

21:56

then they pulled the bait-and-switch and properly shat on the 'owner can cleanse' conceit.

21:57

( homo redditicus still thinks 'hey i own the box' because pulling battery lets you rewrite the cpu's boot rom )

21:57

for now that part worx

and while we're at it, vendor cmd 34 (open ccd) also dead

22:00

tbh i find this entire "can't turn off" bs as the originating quanta of offense.

22:00

no ownership interest in any machine that has always-on components can be said to ever transfer, or in any other way vest in anyone besides the manufacturer.

22:00

( when same cmd send via slave spi -- cr50 uart spews forth 'CCD is disabled in this image' . yep, disabled until usg key signs 'upgrade', verily )

22:01

my slaves are my slaves because i can kill them whenever i feel like ; and my computers my computers because i can turn them off.

22:01

well can turn whole thing off, but solely by discharging or pulling the battery

22:01

and the drm crapola of course picks up where it left off, it writes to flash

22:10

soo, 'gpioget' cmd : http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/A7OwA/?raw=true << worx and reports voltages of named gpio matrix pins
