Syscon Firmware is the firmware stored on the System Controller EEPROM (see [[Syscon Hardware]]). Updates are stored in update packages within the Update_files.tar of a [[Playstation Update Package (PUP)]]. Syscon Packages appear to always be 5KB (5376 bytes) in size.
= Description =
The '''Syscon firmware''' (also known as '''sys'''tem '''con'''troller '''firmware''') is the software stored inside [[Syscon Hardware|syscon]]. Composed by the base firmware (not updateable in retail syscon models) and a optional patch that is applyed virtually on runtime on top of the base firmware<br>
The syscon patches (also known as system controller update packages) for retail PS3 models are distributed in [[PKG_files|PKG]] format inside the [[Update_files.tar]] of the [[Playstation Update Package (PUP)|PS3UPDAT.PUP]]s. Syscon patches appear to always be 5KB (5376 bytes) in size.


= Update procedure =
The PS3 firmware installer PUP's contains a collection of syscon patches for all the different syscon's chips used in the different motherboard models. The ps3swu.self (system updater) checks the syscon [[More_System_Information|SoftID]] and installs the compatible patch accordingly (via updater manager ss service).<br>
The non-retail PS3 models with syscon [[CXR713F120A]] don't have patches, this special syscon model with the "F" product code (that seems to indicate that is fully flasheable) allows to overwrite the base syscon firmware through the [[Communication Processor]]

Note: PS3 firmwares cannot deal with compressed syscon firmwares, so they will abort the update process in that case.
The screen [[More System Information]] allows to see some details related with syscon. The syscon firmware version can be derived from the SoftID, and additionally if there is a patch installed the PatchID displayed in the screen contains both, the syscon firmware version and the patch version. Note also that there is a direct relationship in between the PatchID displayed in the screen and the patch filename. The syscon UART commands also displays some info related with the base syscon firmware and the patch
 
Some examples from syscon UART:

This means from syscon perspective notible firmware changes where made at 1.30, 1.81, 3.00, 3.40 and 3.41 that affected retail and debug PS3 models
=== Content Data Header ===
*Firmware 1.30 (December 6, 2006) added Backup/Restore
The header format is partially unknown at this stage.
*Firmware 1.81 (June 15, 2007) ?
All the Firmwares patches are written in little endian.
*Firmware 3.00 (September 1, 2009) resulted in Class action suit for BluRay reading problems
*Firmware 3.40 (June 29, 2010) ?
*Firmware 3.41 (July 26, 2010) ?
 
== NonRetail syscon ==
Remember, Debug/DEX consoles are normal retail consoles with different TargetID, so only those that have a nonretail board have deviating patches (like the CXR713F120A found on the [[DECR-1000A]] TOOL/DECR).


Tool/DECR don't have patches, they flash entire firmwares.<br />
Factory cp comes with 0.8.8 (corresponds to syscon fw size 0x60000)<br>
it is VERY likely that it is not possible to go below this point, so any smaller size would likely cause a brick (see [[Talk:Communication_Processor]] for more info on how to downgrade)<br>

== Usage ==
* Note: For the weird bogus update ONLY: FFFFFF37 (Alignment Error?) (Trying any data size between 0x41 and 0x4C bytes)
* Note2: v0.6.14c4 is the bogus update (only update with a weird header)
* Note3: setting data between 0x40 to 0x4C to zero in bogus update yields error FFFFFED0


The firmware PUP's contains a collection of patches for all the different hardware revisions of syscon's chips used in different motherboard models.

Which syscon version and which patches are installed can be seen in [[More_System_Information]]
=== Content Data Patch (encrypted) ===
 
Packages can be extracted with the unpkg tool. Extracted content of the updates appears to always be 0x1000 bytes (4KB).
== Decryption ==
Packages can be decrypted with the unpkg tool. Decrypted content of the updates appears to always be 0x1000 bytes (4KB).
 
=== Patch/Firmware Body Decryption/Hashing ===
 
The following is all theoretical and is intended to discard possibilities about modes of operation used by aes when decrypting body of firmware/patch


The following is all theoretical and is intended to discard possibilities about modes of operation used by aes when decrypting body of firmware/patch<br>
We know that:
We know that:
* Two key expansions are used before applying crypto on body (one probably for hashing. the other for decrypting with cbc)
* Two key expansions are used before applying crypto on body (one probably for hashing. the other for decrypting with cbc)
* Encrypt is used when applying crypto on body TopHalf (forward ttables) and Decrypt is used when applying on body Bottomhalf (inverse ttables)
* Encrypt is used when applying crypto on body TopHalf (forward ttables) and Decrypt is used when applying on body Bottomhalf (inverse ttables)

* Note: For the weird bogus update ONLY: FFFFFF37 (Alignment Error?) (Trying any data size between 0x41 and 0x4C bytes)
== Sherwood Patch structure ==
* Note2: v0.6.14c4 is the bogus update (only update with a weird header)
* Note3: setting data between 0x40 to 0x4C to zero in bogus update yields error FFFFFED0

=== Observations ===
* The first 4 bytes (0x1B2D700F) appear static in each package.
* The next 0x20 bytes appear to change with each package
* The following 12 bytes (0x0000000000100000C00F0000) also appear static, but it's the firmware size and fw size - header size; infact if correctly converted to little endian 00000000 00001000 00000fc0, where 00000000 is Unknown, 00001000 is 4096 in dec (file size) and 00000fc0 is 4032 in dec (update size).
* On the DECH fw, the update works in the same way: 000000004000060000000600 converted will be: 00000000 00060040 00060000, where, 00000000 is probably padding, file size 00060040, 00060000 update size
* the first 0x40 bytes probably are IV + HASH + update infos. probably the algorithm used is AES.
* algorithm used is aes 128 cbc on the body (iv is at + 0x30)

Description[edit | edit source]

The Syscon firmware (also known as system controller firmware) is the software stored inside syscon. Composed by the base firmware (not updateable in retail syscon models) and a optional patch that is applyed virtually on runtime on top of the base firmware
The syscon patches (also known as system controller update packages) for retail PS3 models are distributed in PKG format inside the Update_files.tar of the PS3UPDAT.PUPs. Syscon patches appear to always be 5KB (5376 bytes) in size.

Update procedure[edit | edit source]

The PS3 firmware installer PUP's contains a collection of syscon patches for all the different syscon's chips used in the different motherboard models. The ps3swu.self (system updater) checks the syscon SoftID and installs the compatible patch accordingly (via updater manager ss service).
The non-retail PS3 models with syscon CXR713F120A don't have patches, this special syscon model with the "F" product code (that seems to indicate that is fully flasheable) allows to overwrite the base syscon firmware through the Communication Processor

CECH-20xx / DYN-001 / SW2-301
Syscon firmware 1.11.0 patch 1.2.83E.832

These patches are in full Retail/CEX and Debug/DEX firmwares. Are intended to fix some problem in the syscon firmware

  • Fix 1) System firmware 1.30 (December 6, 2006). Disables UART access to the Syscon EEPROM patch region (not for 0832)
  • Fix 2) System firmware 1.81 (June 15, 2007). Patch for the HDMI display data channel read function (only for 0B8E and 0C16)
  • Fix 3) System firmware 3.00 (September 1, 2009). Unknown patch (only for 0832)
  • Fix 4) System firmware 3.40 (June 29, 2010) and 3.41 (July 26, 2010). Patch for the rtc read function (not for 0832)

The screen More System Information allows to see some details related with syscon. The syscon firmware version can be derived from the SoftID, and additionally if there is a patch installed the PatchID displayed in the screen contains both, the syscon firmware version and the patch version. Note also that there is a direct relationship in between the PatchID displayed in the screen and the patch filename. The syscon UART commands also displays some info related with the base syscon firmware and the patch

Content Data Patch (encrypted)[edit | edit source]

Packages can be extracted with the unpkg tool. Extracted content of the updates appears to always be 0x1000 bytes (4KB).

The following is all theoretical and is intended to discard possibilities about modes of operation used by aes when decrypting body of firmware/patch
We know that:

  • Two key expansions are used before applying crypto on body (one probably for hashing. the other for decrypting with cbc)
  • Encrypt is used when applying crypto on body TopHalf (forward ttables) and Decrypt is used when applying on body Bottomhalf (inverse ttables)
  • Authenticated regions uses a form of what seems to be some ECB with tweak xoring (as graf once said about XTS)
  • XTS was introduced in 2007 and SysCon from ps3 exists for far more time than that (2003)
  • XEX is a close relative of XTS that was introduced in 1984
  • PS4 uses XTS for Authenticated Regions or SNVS (with sector size of 0x20 being used. is this even considered safe?)
  • 4 regions can be controlled for DPA and they are: 0x2790 (size 0x20) (FFs), patch header (most notably at offset 0x4 of header size 0x10 and 0x30 size 0x10), patch body tophalf(+0x40) and patch body bottomhalf(+0x50)
  • here are the DPA bytes for each of the controlable sections:
  • 21 06 23 DC A2 98 99 4D XX 87 F8 40 FC 48 1C BF (section 2/FF's from 0x2790 on DIA-001) -> 210623DCA298994DFE87F840FC481CBF
  • 21 06 23 DC A2 98 99 4D XX 87 F8 40 FC 48 1C BF (section 2/FF's from 0x2790 on DEB-001) -> 210623DCA298994DFE87F840FC481CBF
  • 16 32 47 79 C3 2C 47 D3 2B 39 CA B5 83 41 0E D5 (section 3/header from DIA-001 patch content)
  • XX XX XX XX 7B FC 27 CD D5 9A 05 09 3A DF E4 75 (section 3/header AA from DEB-001 patch content) -> 6E9CE7C57BFC27CDD59A05093ADFE475
  • 92 4A 87 88 20 59 6C 49 9F 0E 7D 77 2F 38 4C FC (section 3/header DD from DEB-001 patch content)
  • 7D C6 3B 3B 69 DF 67 4C 94 D7 D4 A8 E0 F8 5B B2 (section 4/body from DIA-001 patch content/tophalf/forward)
  • 73 XX F0 3D XX 9A F0 92 4D XX 62 DA XX 48 3C DB (section 4/body from DIA-001 patch content/bottomhalf/inverse)
  • 49 1F 7B 0A 48 BD 79 33 4E 16 89 F6 B0 25 86 48 (section 4/body from DEB-001 patch content/tophalf/forward)
  • 14 4D F1 D3 21 B6 17 46 60 81 42 E5 02 C9 07 66 (section 4/body from DEB-001 patch content/bottomhalf/inverse/PROPER) -> 6B3583DA1AA6B49106E1641178EE68C8 (inverse ttables)
  • some bytes are considered "weak" bytes and should be bruteforced in the eventuality these keys fail
  • another possibility is that both the header and the body are hashed and then decrypted, using for example, cmac and cbc
  • since key expansions take 10 "hills" in the analysis, it should be safe to assume that AES-128 is used(because it uses 10 rounds).
  • 6554cff202c3bfdd9740901070b705bf : correct md5 for patch content we are trying keys on (DIA-001)
  • 4875ad06a1499cc516a0d4d92e595794 : correct md5 for patch content we are trying keys on (DEB-001/DIA-002)
  • trying a different header/body patch content from another similar board will result into failure of decrypting body, which means that the header is checked for authenticity and that the header hash is NOT in the header
  • altering the patch header doesn't cause the patch header dpa bytes to change (a test was done with 4 bytes and the result was 16 32 47 79, which matches the other patch dpa recovered bytes)
  • there are in fact not 4 but 5 aes sections. the last one seems to be body related, as changing the body even one bit makes the last aes section disappear.
  • section 2 is divided into two sections, corresponding to TopHalf and BottomHalf of patch area.
  • TopHalf uses forward ttables/sbox. BottomHalf uses inverse ttables/sbox
  • TopHalf is ONLY the very first 0x10 bytes AFTER the header and into the body (corresponding to 0x40 in header size 0x10)
  • BottomHalf is the rest of the body itself.
  • DYN-001 processes one entire chunk of 0x1000 bytes, 0x40 for header and 0xFC0 for body, and not two of 0x400 and 0xC00 like the Sony models
  • 504 aes operations are done for the body (252/0xFC for cmac and 252/0xFC for cbc). it is unknown if cmac comes first or it is cbc.
  • All attacks show weak bytes in comparisson with CXR(F), likely due to CXR being optimized for the attack (removed resistors/capacitors, etc)
