SC EEPROM

Most of the information we have about the sc eeprom comes from graf_chokolo reverse engineering of the HV see Hypervisor Reverse Engineering

Here is where system flags, tokens and hashes are stored.

Right now most of the comunication we have with the sc eeprom is through linux using graf_chokolo ps3dm-utils and/or using his payloads.

Important Offsets

EEPROM Offset Table - Flags and Tokens

Here is the table of EEPROM offsets that can be accessed through Update Manager (3.15):

Offset Size Description
0x02F00 8 Downgrade Minimum Version String
0x02F08 0x10? Downgrade Minimum Version Build + Date Build String
0x02F20 8 Target ID? (HV bible lists the Target ID as 85 Europe, not 83 Japan)
0x02FF8 1 Factory Bit
0x48013 0x2A QA Token ECDSA Signature (3.60>= firmwares)
0x48C01 1 (force standalone mode related)
0x48C02 1 select_net_device (debug interface)
0x48C03 1 (sys.dbgcard.dgbe.index)
0x48C06 1 FSELF Control Flag / toggles release mode
0x48C07 1 Product Mode (UM allows to read this offset, it can be also written but only when already in product mode)
0x48C08 1
0x48C0A 1 QA Flag
0x48C0B 1 mode_auth_flag / gx enable
0x48C0C 1 (unknown)
0x48C0D 1 (unknown)
0x48C13 1 Device Type
0x48C14 cellos_spu_configure
0x48C18 0x4 (unknown)
0x48C1C 0x4 (unknown)
0x48C22 1 be nclk
0x48C23 1 be ref clk
0x48C30 1 SPE number Usally 0x06, can be set to 0x07 to enable the 8 SPE
0x48C31 4 sata_param
0x48C35 8 spr_tbuw_value
0x48C42 1 HDD Copy Mode
0x48C43 4 (unknown)
0x48C50 0x10 Debug Support Flag
0x48C60 1 Update Status
0x48C61 1 Recover Mode Flag
0x48D20 8 spider.gbe0.macaddr.0
0x48D3E 0x50 QA Token (UM doesn't allow access to this offset but SC Manager can read/write it)
0x48D8E 0x50 mode_auth_data (read/cleared by ss_sc_init_pu, checked by spu_mode_auth)

In a standard mostly untouched ps3 the common value for this flags is 0xFF wich means not active, anything else means active (e.g. 0xFE)

To change this to an active status you have to write 0x00 to turn on the flag

Debug support flag is tied to EID which is supposed to be hashed and saves in SC EEPROM

QA flag is tied to QA token that is also saved in this part of the SC EEPROM

QA Token ECDSA Signature is stored in 0x48013 offset (starting from 3.60 firmwares)

Dumpable EEPROM Offset - Block ID and Block Offset Mapping Table (NVS Service)

Right now we only have read access to some portions of the eeprom to have access to this regions DM needs to be patched, see section dumping eeprom

Dumping your SC EEPROM

Linux

First you need graf_chokolo kernel ps3dm-utils and linux_hv_scripts.

If you are ready.

Patch DM using linux_hv_scripts 

dmpatch.sh

Read the data from the region you want for example (see tables above) 

ps3dm_scm /dev/ps3dmproxy 0x48000 0xFF

You can see some coolstuff that containing dumps

Hashes

Where exactly the hashes are stored is still a secret, it is said that those hashes are stored in SC EEPROM

To retrive the information about the packages you have installed you can also use ps3d_utils

Linux

Installed Package info

ps3dm_um /dev/ps3dmproxy get_pkg_info TYPE

Examples

get_pkg_info 1 - Core OS package 

	
		0003004100000000

get_pkg_info 2 - Revoke List for program 

	
		0003004100000000

get_pkg_info 3 - Revoke list for package

get_pkg_info 6 - Firmware Package 

		0003005000000000


You can find more information about this in Hypervisor Reverse Engineering


Hashes

What algorithm is used and what exactly is hashed is still unknown (seems that the content of files is hashed by the SHA-1). 

ps3dm_scm /dev/ps3dmproxy get_region_data ID

This hashes are checked by lv1 to make sure that the data has not been altered throgh scm_get_region_data: get_result: ret[X]: 0x%x
