Identifying broken ISO14443A magic

^Top

When a magic card configuration is really messed up and the card is not labeled, it may be hard to find out which type of card it is.

Here are some tips if the card doesn't react or gives error on a simple hf 14a reader:

Let's force a 4b UID anticollision and see what happens:

hf 14a config --atqa force --bcc ignore --cl2 skip --rats skip
hf 14a reader

It it responds, we know it's a TypeA card. But maybe it's a 7b UID, so let's force a 7b UID anticollision:

hf 14a config --atqa force --bcc ignore --cl2 force --cl3 skip --rats skip
hf 14a reader

At this stage, you know if it's a TypeA 4b or 7b card and you can check further on this page how to reconfigure different types of cards.

To restore anticollision config of the Proxmark3:

hf 14a config --std

 90  FD  11  11  00           - lock permanently

It seems the length byte gets ignored anyway.

Note: it seems some cards only accept the "change UID" command.

It accepts direct read of block0 (and only block0) without prior auth.

Writing to block 0 has some side-effects:

  • It changes also the UID. Changing the UID does not change block 0.
  • ATQA and SAK bytes are automatically replaced by fixed values.
  • On 4-byte UID cards, BCC byte is automatically corrected.

Proxmark3 commands

^Top ^^Gen4

# view contents of tag memory:
hf mf gview

👉 TODO hf mf gview is currently missing Ultralight memory maps

Equivalent:

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF00000000CE00
hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF00000000CE01
hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF00000000CE02
...

Change ATQA / SAK

^Top ^^Gen4

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF<passwd>35<2b ATQA><1b SAK>
  • ⚠ ATQA bytes are swapped in the command
  • ⚠ ATQA bytes that result in iso14443a card select failed (I.E. ATQA=0040 in raw form) can be corrected with hf 14a config --atqa force
  • ⚠ when SAK bit 6 is set (e.g. SAK=20 or 28), ATS must be turned on, otherwise the card may not be recognized by some readers!
  • ⚠ never set SAK bit 3 (e.g. SAK=04), it indicates an extra cascade level is required (see hf 14a config --cl2 skip or hf 14a config --cl3 skip to recover a misconfigured card)

Example: ATQA 0044 SAK 28, default pwd

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF0000000035440028

OR (Note the script will correct the ATQA correctly)

script run hf_mf_ultimatecard -q 004428

Change ATS

^Top ^^Gen4

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF<passwd>34<1b length><0-16b ATS>
  • <length>: ATS length byte, set to 00 to disable ATS
  • ⚠ when SAK bit 6 is set (e.g. SAK=20 or 28), ATS must be turned on, otherwise the card may not be recognized by some readers!
  • ATS CRC will be added automatically, don't configure it
  • Max ATS length: 16 bytes (+CRC)

Example: ATS to 0606757781028002F0, default pwd

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF000000003406067577810280

Or

script run hf_mf_ultimatecard -z 06067577810280`

Set UID length (4, 7, 10)

^Top ^^Gen4

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF<passwd>68<1b param>
  • <param>
    • 00: 4 bytes
    • 01: 7 bytes
    • 02: 10 bytes

Example: set UID length to 7 bytes, default pwd

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF000000006801

Set 14443A UID

^Top ^^Gen4

UID is configured according to block0 with a backdoor write. (Script commands are below the UID length examples)

Example: preparing first two blocks: (Note the UMC has to be in MFC mode and the correct UID byte length set)

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF00000000CD00000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F
hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF00000000CD01101112131415161718191A1B1C1D1E1F
hf 14a reader

MFC mode 4b UID

=> UID 00010203

script run hf_mf_ultimatecard -t 3 -u 00010203

MFC mode 7b UID

=> UID 00010203040506

script run hf_mf_ultimatecard -t 3 -u 00010203040506

MFC mode, 10b UID

=> UID 00010203040506070809

Ultralight mode, 4b UID

=> UID 00010203

Ultralight mode, 7b UID

=> UID 00010210111213

👉 the UID is composed of first two blocks as in regular Ultralights

  • Examples
    • UL-EV1 48b = script run hf_mf_ultimatecard -t 9 -u 00010203040506
    • UL EV1 128b = script run hf_mf_ultimatecard -t 10 -u 00010203040506
    • NTAG 215 = script run hf_mf_ultimatecard -t 15 -u 00010203040506

Ultralight mode, 10b UID
=> UID 00010203040506070809
👉 the UID is composed only from block0

Set 14443B UID and ATQB

^Top ^^Gen4

UID and ATQB are configured according to block0 with a (14a) backdoor write.

UID size is always 4 bytes.

Example:

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF00000000CD00000102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F
hf 14b reader

=> UID 00010203
=> ATQB 0405060708090A

(De)Activate Ultralight mode

^Top ^^Gen4

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF<passwd>69<1b param>
  • <param>
    • 00: MIFARE Classic mode
    • 01: MIFARE Ultralight/NTAG mode

Example: activate Ultralight protocol, default pwd

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF000000006901

Or

script run hf_mf_ultimatecard -n 01

In this mode, if SAK=00 and ATQA=0044, it acts as an Ultralight card

⚠ only the first four bytes of each block will be mapped in the Ultralight memory map (so the Ultralight block numbers follow backdoor R/W block numbers).

Select Ultralight mode

^Top ^^Gen4

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF<passwd>6A<1b param>
  • <param>
    • 00: UL EV1
    • 01: NTAG
    • 02: UL-C
    • 03: UL

⚠ it supposes Ultralight mode was activated (cf command 69)

Example: set Ultralight mode to Ultralight-C, default pwd

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF000000006A02

Or

script run hf_mf_ultimatecard -m 02

Now the card supports the 3DES UL-C authentication.

Set shadow mode (GTU)

^Top ^^Gen4

This mode is divided into four states: off (pre-write), on (on restore), don’t care, and high-speed read and write. If you use it, please enter the pre-write mode first. At this time, write the full card data. After writing, set it to on. At this time, after writing the data, the first time you read the data just written, the next time you read It is the pre-written data. All modes support this operation. It should be noted that using any block to read and write in this mode may give wrong results.

Example: script run hf_mf_ultimatecard -w 1 -g 00 -t 15 -u 04112233445566 -s 112233445566778899001122334455667788990011223344556677 -p FFFFFFFF -a 8080 -o 11111111 -g 01

  • -w 1 = wipe the card in Ultralight Mode
  • -g 00 = turn on pre-write mode
  • -t 15 = change the type of card to NTAG 215
  • -u = set the uid
  • -s = set the signature
  • -p = set the NTAG password
  • -a = set the PACK
  • -o = set the OTP
  • -g 01 = turn on restore mode

At this point the card is set to a unwritten NTAG 215. Now any data written to the card will only last for 1 read. Write a popular game toy to it, read it, now it is back to the unwritten NTAG 215.

👉 Remember to disable GTU mode to get the card back to a normal state.

script run hf_mf_ultimatecard -g 03

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF<passwd>32<1b param>
  • <param>
    • 00: pre-write, shadow data can be written
    • 01: restore mode
    • 02: disabled
    • 03: disabled, high speed R/W mode for Ultralight?

Direct block read and write

^Top ^^Gen4

Using the backdoor command, one can read and write any area without MFC password, similarly to MFC Gen1 card. It should be noted that this command must be used to modify UID.

Backdoor read 16b block:

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF<passwd>CE<1b block number>

Backdoor write 16b block:

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF<passwd>CD<1b block number><16b block data>

Read/Write operations work on 16 bytes, no matter the Ultralight mode.

Note that only the first four bytes of each block will be mapped in the Ultralight memory map.

Example: read block0, default pwd

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF00000000CE00

Example: write block0 with factory data, default pwd

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF00000000CD00112233441C000011778185BA18000000

Change backdoor password

^Top ^^Gen4

All backdoor operations are protected by a password. If password is forgotten, the card can't be recovered. Default password is 00000000.

Change password:

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF <passwd> FE <4b new_password>

Example: change password from 00000000 to AABBCCDD

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CF00000000FEAABBCCDD

Example: change password from AABBCCDD back to 00000000

hf 14a raw -s -c -t 1000 CFAABBCCDDFE00000000
