    Hey Matt, loved the video as per usual. I’ve cracked the hash for the boot loader, the password is: ngpriv106

      Nice.
      Looks fairly simple.. I'd imagine you had some GPU power to get done so quickly.
      While you likely wouldn't find this string in a rainbow table, the combination of 9 lowercase letters and 0-9 gives us 9^36 iterations to get through. Modern CPUs and GPUs could knock that around quickly. Few hours at most.

    I know the hash has been cracked now, but if you wanted to get into the older firmware without having to do a chip-off you could also have tried interrupting the boot process a few times, ideally with a reset. This would simulate the crashing firmware that this sort of A/B deployment is supposed to protect against and may have caused the boot loader to fail back to the old version.

      It has? In what video does he do that? I couldn't find that hash in those pre-computed lookup tables and using leaked password lists didn't work either. I doubt he could brute-force that hash

    Is it not possible for you to write your own known hash into the flash chip raw data dump or is this data retained in the armarello chip??

      This should be possible. I'm working on this method for a future video.

    Hey Matt thanks for the video. How did you know that the hash was unsalted? Was it in a previous video?

    • @mattbrwn
      @mattbrwn  Рік тому +6

      Good question! I discussed it in the first video.
      The bootloader prints out the password hash of what you enter for a password attempt. So I was able to type "password" in, hit enter, and confirm that the password matched the unsalted sha256 hash of "password"

      I'm trying to put together a playlist about all my tools but that's a work in progress.
      For getting UART access you really just need a simple TTL-232R cable:

    The fact they patched the backdoor before rugging their customers is an even bigger FU / kick in the teeth to them. Not only are they pretty much bricking your camera but denying you the chance to modify it to stream to local storage 😡

    Sir, i have been facings problems on my blutooth speaker, every time I turn it on it prompted heavy annoying sounds like "Bluetooth pairing is on" "usb mode" etc. How can we remove these prompts, or customise the blutooth device name. Also could we make a device which could connect to multiple bluetooth devices and simultaneously output all of them from one source/smartphone 🤔

    I'm guessing they beefed up their passwords after this recent CVE: nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2016-10115
    One option may be to fuzz the UART inputs? Perhaps something in the password check logic may have a bug
