sparkgap

Sparkgap is a set of scripts and a python library to assist in hardware control and execution of side channel and fault injection attacks. It includes the following components:

• lib/: the sparkgap library
• emu/: targets and loaders for software (rainbow) emulated attacks
• analysis tools:
  • cpa.py: executes standard correlation power analysis
  • dpa.py: executes standard differential power analysis
  • nddla.py: executes Benjamin Timon's 2019 attack (https://tches.iacr.org/index.php/TCHES/article/view/7387).
• utilities:
  • capturebuddy.py: helper to capture data from different frontends
  • plot.py: inspect captured waves, plot various aspects of them for manual analysis
  • traceutil.py: trace-set manipulation utility (e.g. join hdfs, split, etc)
  • preprocessor.py: scripted preprocessor engine for aligning and noise removal
• experiments/
  • *.cmd: preprocessor scripting files
  • files in here are work in progress, and may arbitrarily not work / brick things

This can be installed like a standard Python library:

python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt
cd lib/
python3 setup.py install --user
