anti copy, Mifare Sector0 / block0 should be locked

[kevin2008-01]

Now, new reader, fuck the chameleon, with anti-copy tag system.....
Please implement enable / disable fuid uid...for slot..... if is possible, right. ???
Thank you iceman1001.

I am not sure I understand what I'm reading...

Enable / Disable FUID ? UID for slot..

I'm not sure either but that could be of the french way of expressing things. There seem to be a wish for FUID to be optional per slot. What I'm curious is what functionality FUID stands for? use once? magic? ...

[kevin2008-01]

Block 0 can only be written once.
Even greater protection from a  system with "anti-clone" feature
Use normal commands. eg. hf mf  wrbl 0 B FFFFFFFFFFFF a473f601200804006263646566676869
Answers to chinese magic backdoor commands: NO

Hm, this firmware as it is shouldn't allow for uid (block0) re-writing.
it should set uid when we upload a dump etc. Then it shouldn't allow at all for block0.

Aha, I see in the source code there is no limit for block0 writes. ok. Fair enough, I agree.

[ceres-c]

Now I get it and I agree

[kevin2008-01]

the reader must understand that writing block 0 is impossible, he must just read the chameleon. I do not know which command the reader sends to do the test or detect a tag copy. apparently, new readers are not blocked only in France, but also in other countries. see you

French readers implemented a 'magic check' where they send 0x43 0x40 to weed out magic tags.
However, the Chameleon Mini also has timing issues - which means they are often rejected by french readers. I'm assuming he's bumping up against problem 2 more than problem 1 - as the Chameleon should not respond to 0x43 0x40

[slurdge]

By "magic", you mean Chinese backdoor command ?

[quantum-x]

Correct. Also - it seems that this behaviour has now been removed by default.

@iceman1001 to be closed I think.

[iceman1001]

@ShinHub double check in code that block0 doesn't allow for Write commands...

[securechicken]

@iceman1001 you were right... I took quantum-x answer as clue of a previous patch.
I checked and found nothing in Mifare code to prevent Block0 write.
I am patching this.

[iceman1001]

keep in mind for your patch, that the support-chinese-magic command macro defines, at compilation time, should allow for updating block0 etc..

[securechicken]

I swear won't hurt any chinese.

You do have a sense of humor. Excellent.
