I can only find a binary version of the flash command, please add another repository showing the used Python script.

This file contains verification and encryption algorithms, have no plan open source yet.

Also CubeCellelftool is missing source code. Virustotal claims Sangfor Engine Zero detects them both as malware:

https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/0ace4e9800e7927c53575b879d3d85a9926e299c8b3f47a9093ffd14b40108ab/details https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/b7dd661c8aa763e42c4f5d0cfc6f43b33ccf866df37a365a3a9f11cbe3287c08/detection

Has someone ran a more thorough scan of those binaries?

What verification/encryption is it? Does the PSoC4 even accept encrypted code? :-O Is there an open-source alternative?

Also, you're shipping a version of gcc, i.e. from http://119.23.153.38/download/gcc-arm-none-eabi-8-2019-q3-update-linux.tar.gz . Is it modified in any way? If so then you are obliged by the GPL to provide the source code of your modifications.

For example, you developed a product based on CubeCell, but someone copied your hardware... If you copy the firmware from FLASH and burn it into the copied hardware, this firmware will not work.

OK, I see, so it's for our "protection". It would be very appreciated if you could, in the future, release the source code anyway.
