My Passport decryption

Open marcantoinegodde opened this issue 4 years ago • 16 comments

Hello there, following this thread: https://github.com/andlabs/reallymine/issues/86 I have some good news. I finally found the time to do the soldering work and extract the DEK.

Where can I contact you in private @themaddoctor ?

Add an email address to your profile and I will send you an email message.

themaddoctor avatar Feb 29 '20 03:02 themaddoctor

Done. Thanks for your quick answer. ^^

marcantoinegodde avatar Feb 29 '20 23:02 marcantoinegodde

I sent an email. Check your spam box.

Now that I've seen your paperwork, the rest can be handled here.

In addition to the first sector or two, I need to know everything you can remember about the password. If it is in French, I will also need a list of French words, since I don't know any words.

I sent an email with the sectors on the same address you used before. As mentioned in the mail, I will send the list with the passwords tomorrow. Thanks. :)

marcantoinegodde avatar Mar 02 '20 23:03 marcantoinegodde

The list with passwords was sent. Thank you.

Does ??? mean any number, or any /three-digit/ number?

themaddoctor avatar Mar 05 '20 16:03 themaddoctor

Usually, we used passwords where ??? means only 3 numbers. Nevertheless, as I said, these are vague forms of passwords. I didn’t set this password myself, my father did: he told me everything he could remember at this point. This means that he could be something else. You can try various combinations of what I proposed. By the way, as I am pretty sure that the DEK is the factory DEK and I know the production date of the drive, I was wondering if you successfully implemented the HWRNG32() function to try this way.

So far, I have not found the password. No, I have only cracked the RNG for the JMicron chip.

themaddoctor avatar Mar 09 '20 23:03 themaddoctor

This could have been expected, though I don't have any further information give. :( Just let me know if you find something. I hope you're fine and not affected too much by the pandemic, Still, thank you.

marcantoinegodde avatar Mar 15 '20 21:03 marcantoinegodde

Thanks. If you can send more suggestions for the password, I will try them. Stay safe.

themaddoctor avatar Mar 15 '20 21:03 themaddoctor

By the way, I was wondering, do you keep a brute force running even if everything I gave was unsuccessful ?

marcantoinegodde avatar Mar 16 '20 22:03 marcantoinegodde

I have not been doing that.

themaddoctor avatar Mar 17 '20 01:03 themaddoctor

So far, I have not found the password. No, I have only cracked the RNG for the JMicron chip.

themaddoctor avatar Mar 24 '20 19:03 themaddoctor

I have tried all of the combinations you sent me, and all 4-character strings of letters and digits. None are the password.

themaddoctor avatar Mar 24 '20 19:03 themaddoctor

Fu**. Thank you though. Let me know if you find something, I guess.
