Description

Amlogic bootrom supports booting from USB. This method of boot requires an USB host to send a signed bootloader to the bootrom via USB port.

This tool exploits a vulnerability in the USB download mode to load and run unsigned code in Secure World.

Supported targets

• X88proX3
• Probably work with all s905x3 box.

Scripts

• all.sh
• Dump bootloader+dtb+boot
• Convert dtb to dts
• Dump efuse extract bl2 asekey and iv
• Decrypt bootloader
• Extract u-boot
• Decrypt u-boot
• Decrypt boot
• Extract bl3xaeskey+kernelaeskes
• All files be in dump_all dir.

Usage

Box must be in usbdl mod. To put box to usbdl mod with toopick in AV hole on box push button and connect box with USB-A to USB-A cable with PC, keep button pushed (10sec) after connect usb cable with pc.

• git clone https://github.com/Raxone/amlogic-usbdl_s905x3.git

• If board usb password protect, put password file in password folder,and rename to password.bin

• cd amlogic-usbdl_s905x3

• ./scripts/all.sh

• All files be in dump_all dir.

• If board in nonsecured mode

• Only dump boot.bin dtb.bin bootloader.bin efuse.bin and extract dtb.bin to dts.

• If board in secured mode

• bl2aeskey -Bootloader(BL2) aeskey used for decrypt bootloader.

• bl2aesiv -Bootloader(BL2) initialization vector(IV)used for decrypt bootloader.bin.

• bl3xaeskey -U-boot aeskey

• kernelaeskey - Kernel aeskey

• bootloader.bin -Dumped main bootloader from box(BL2,FIP,BL3.1,BL33(U-boot)).

• bootloader_dec.bin -Decrypted bootloader.bin

• Extract -u-boot

• Decrypt -u-boot

• Decrypt -boot/kernel

• dtb.bin -Device tree blob binary

• dtb_dts -Device tree blob txt

• root_rsa_keys.sha -sha256 of rootkeys used for encrypt bootloader.

• pattern.secureboot.efuse -pattern burned in efuse from manufacturer to enable secureboot
