Hacking nusdownloader and tmd files from 3DS!?

[EthanObi]

just noticed when i was viewing files on 3ds sd card, there are TMD files. which CAN be viewed and possibly decrypted by NUSDownloader!! its just a theory. DONT FLAME ME FOR IT!

No, not possible atm.

You NEED the COMMON KEY for decryption AS WELL!
The 3DS Common Key has NOT been publicly leaked/dumped yet
if it was as easy as you described it would have been done already in June 2011.

Flameflame.

No, it wouldn't work that way. You've gotta have the keys, and nobody's found them yet. Or, if they have, they're not sharing them.

wait. common keys...hrm...anything like this?:675023AF4C419EB5?

every TMD on my SD card has that EXACT code inside of it when opened with NUSD

Congrats! You found the keys.

You wish!

It wouldn't be that easy to find. It might be a checksum. But I'd be damned if it was a console key.

*cough*flamewars episode OMEGA attack of the trolls*cough* close this please....oh right. ill check my 2nd 3DS sd card! it has all the same apps on it. BRB!

1 day doesn't sound like "be right back"

or does 5. nintendo isn't that supiid they would put the code in the game

Your So Awesome ethanobi!!

Agree with Collosal... if it was that easy, it woulda been done long ago. Also, probably should've gone under this sticky.

Not trying to flame, just sayin'.

Doesn't the key have 128-bit encryption? Meaning that it would take somewhere around 100,000,000 years to find it or something? I remember reading an old thread about it....

Good thing I'm immortal, then.

Well, I (think) there was somewhere around 4 Quintilian possible keys to brute force, or maybe more. The '100,000,000 years' is just to say "don't even dare to brute force it." Using brute force - while it may work eventually - is a very, very terrible option in this case. Just wait for someone like neimod to find the keys with his RAM dumper. It'll be 100 million years faster than brute force

TMDs aren't encrypted. Certainly not on Wii anyway, I would assume on 3DS also.

EDIT: Yeah, think I was right. Details on structure of TMDs here: http://3dbrew.org/wiki/TMD Seems pretty similar to Wii TMDs. There's also code by trap15 to parse them, available at 3dbrew at the link I gave above.

Only assuming brute force doesn't guess it right on the first try . If it were to take 100,000,000 years then that would mean the encryption key is simply all 9s, correct?
