Presonus has deprecated ther RM/RML series mixer. That mostly means that support for this great piece of hardware is dropped too. Last firmware update has been released on Sep, 13th 2018 under the version of v13731. It brings some improvements and features, but still has some issues.
I've reported that issues to presonus in Dec 2018-Jan 2019, but no fixes was released up to date. Well, I've decided to take a look into it by myself.
This repository is for educational purposses only. I'm not responsible if any damage is done to your mixer
Gambit - Presonus RM16AIGambit_l - Presonus RML16AIRogue - StudioLive 16.4.2AIBeast- StudioLive 24.4.2AIWolverine - StudioLive RM32 AIWolverine_l - StudioLive RML32 AIXMEN - AVB extension cardconsole - CS18AIRML16AI_Rack_13731 Update bundle consists of the following files:
initvars.scrrecovery.scrrootfs.imguImageupgrade.bin.scr files are basically custom uBoot scripts, that run specific update commands. That files has a simple signature header, that is used for
early Bundle fingerptinting. I think the basic usage of it verificaton that certain update Bundle will fit the hardware it is running on. We'll
analyze this headers later and see if we can run cross-upgrade in the family. Cross-upgrade will allow us to turn RM/RML16 into
full-featured RM/RML32 machine, because the hardware in this machines seems to be identical. I state it after in-depth analysis of hardware of
my own RML16AI.

dropbear is configured to connect with
ssh -oCiphers=aes128-cbc -oKexAlgorithms=+diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 root@192.168.1.11but we do not have root password.
Typically, Linux hashes passwords and stores them in /etc/shadow. But this system has huge security flaws:
/etc/passwd with old DES encryption algorythm/etc/default/passwd, rather than knowing original password.Let's analyze the strenght of password with JohnTheRipper.
sudo apt install john
sudo john <mounted-image-path>/etc/passwd -showthis will run default dictionary over the hash and literally in a second will give us a result.
root:demands:0:0:root:/home/root:/bin/shSo, root password to the system is really weak.
