Card detector

Card type is often unknown. Card detector runs tests against the unknown card to determine it's type. These tests are not 100% accurate, but they help to start exploring. If the test finished successfully, it can recommend to run a suitable application for the card type.

Card detector routine:

  1. Check if card ISO-14443 A or B or FeliCa
  2. Check the 6 byte of SAK to determine if ISO-14443-4 compliant
  3. Match combination of UID, SAK, ATQA, ATS, ATR from database
  4. Try to authenticate as Mifare, EMV, etc..
  5. Return founded type and suggest suitable application or return error

Reader detector

Wall readers usually looks the same, but may accept various types type of cards. With reader detector feature we can emulate dummy card on Flipper and sniff commands that reader send to card.

Reader detector

  1. Silently read WUPA (0x52) or REQA (0x26) without triggering SELECT on reader
  2. Emulate dummy card 2.1 Answer on ATQA 2.2 Answer on SELECT 2.3 ...
  3. Consistently emulate popular cards before valid authentication from reader found

Reader mode

  • Mifare classic reader How to select dictionary?
    • Brute force
    • Save dump
    • Write dump to SD-card
  • Mifare Ultralight reader
    • Save dump
    • Write dump?
  • EMV reader
  • Simple UID reader

Write/Emulate mode

Saved dumps stored on SD-card and accessible from Saved dumps menu. All saved dumps can be emulated or written to card if possible. User can view dump info and choose the action:

  • Emulate
  • Write
  • Edit? (Editing big dumps can be can be difficult)

USB NFC Reader [Not implemented]

There are many use cases that impossible to run directly on Flipper Zero. Most of these cases require powerful CPU for cryptographic attacks:

  • Mifare classic attacks: mfoc (Nested), mfcuk (Dark Side)
  • Mifare Plus attack: Hard Nested

We can use Flipper Zero as a regular USB NFC adapter along with LibNFC library, so all existing software will work out of the box without any modifications. This mode must be run from menu NFC -> USB NFC adapter. In this mode all commands from PC should be forwarded directly to NFC chip ST25R3916 via USB serial interface.
