    asciilifeform: kmalkki: now more interestingly, hdt is simply a protocol on top of jtag, imho the main scientific interest in the smartprobe fw would be to extract the protocol.

    asciilifeform: kmalkki: this would suggest that the modulus is stored big-endian ?!
    
    
    
    asciilifeform: otherwise, in the case of the 1st one seen here, http://wotpaste.cascadianhacker.com/pastes/wv3x3/?raw=true , it would be even?!
    
    asciilifeform: http://btcbase.org/log/2016-10-04#1552874 << evidently not, they are not functions of the exponent or modulus (they stay constant across variations in both of the latter)
    
    a111: Logged on 2016-10-04 18:44 mircea_popescu: cosmic ray protection ?
    
    mircea_popescu: hm.
    
    kmalkki: where exactly do you see the even number
    
    mircea_popescu: kmalkki he means, if it's read as little-endian, it ends with a 0 bit
    
    asciilifeform: cc df 66 cf   littleendianized
    
    asciilifeform: 0xcc == 0b11001100 .
    
    asciilifeform: observe that the exponents are 01 00 01 00 00 .......
    
    asciilifeform: i.e. little-endian.
    
    mircea_popescu: asciilifeform then again the next one... 5c 7f 11 22
    
    mircea_popescu: both 22 and 5c are even
    
    asciilifeform: nono
    
    asciilifeform: that next one has a selfsig
    
    asciilifeform: as kmalkki pointed out earlier.
    
    mircea_popescu: ah right you are it does
    
    mircea_popescu: nm
    
    asciilifeform: the master key, interestingly, has no self-sig.
    
    asciilifeform: nor any checksums, it would appear.
    
    kmalkki: but bootrom supposedly contains SHA-256 hash of master key
    
    asciilifeform: and - unless i am hallucinating - has an even N
    
    asciilifeform: kmalkki: this would not be a surprising way to do it - sha is easy to hardwareize, rsa - not so easy
    
    asciilifeform: but i bet that it'd happily eat a collided turd
    
    asciilifeform: though if it really has an even N...
    
    mircea_popescu: there doesn't seem to be much restriction of form whatsoever ; not even of size, re that collided turd.
    
    asciilifeform: aha.
    
    mircea_popescu: did sha256 have an extension attack or am i confusing it
    
    mircea_popescu: iirc it's like md5 based on merkle construction yes ?
    
    asciilifeform: yes, but does not help in this case
    
    asciilifeform: thing hashes a fixed-length turd, it would seem.
    
    asciilifeform: (and if it did not, i still don't see how glomming bits onto the payload would change the outcome of the verification)
    
    asciilifeform: kmalkki: do you know whether anyone has read out the mask rom ?
    
    asciilifeform: where the actual verification routine lives
    
    kmalkki: not that I know of
    
    kmalkki: whether it is mask rom or fused hash at production is also unknown
    
    mircea_popescu: time to bust out ye olde microscope huh. you got a chip alf ?
    
    asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: plenty, but no electron microscope.
    
    asciilifeform: nor dirigible.
    
    mircea_popescu: eh, hitachi s5000s start at what, 70k ?
    
    mircea_popescu: anyway /me had the idea you got one in your garage, nfi why exactly.
    
    asciilifeform: i am not a wealthy man, mircea_popescu .
    
    asciilifeform: incidentally, the moduli in the self-signed blobs end in : d6 e1 1c ec ; 46 0a d0 9a ; be fe 39 b6 ; 2c c3 f2 a2 ; 46 0a d0 9a ; 13 7d e7 c3 .
    
    asciilifeform: yes, the parsed-out mods.
    
    asciilifeform: they parse.
    
    asciilifeform: does anyone see where this is goign

    deedbot: kmalkki voiced for 30 minutes.
    
    ben_vulpes claps and bounces in his seat
    
    mircea_popescu: kmalkki seriously, register your key so you don't keep being silenced.
    
    asciilifeform: all but the last is littleendian-even.
    
    asciilifeform: kmalkki: also interestingly, the turdlets are supposedly arm-compatible, and - to naked eye, seeing strings - plainly unciphered, but they do not appear to disassemble cleanly as either big- or little-endian arm.
    
    mircea_popescu: trustlets! not turdlets! lmao!
    
    asciilifeform: (conceivably the cheapest way to read out the boot rom would be to get arbitrary code execution in the stock turdlet)
    
    kmalkki: maybe I got this all wrong, but could [0x140] contain the LSB of the entire modulus
    
    asciilifeform: hm
    
    asciilifeform: that would make sense
    
    kmalkki: docs have no mention of endianness
    
    asciilifeform: no but if it follows same pattern as the exponent
    
    asciilifeform: ok these then all become sane-looking rsa moduli.

    shinohai: yup, same block shows p2sh addys on blokechain.info where "unable to decode" appears
    
    asciilifeform: does it thereby follow that prb and trb have differing notions of how much coin is contained in A ?

    mod6: and there is a special message there under Estimated Value Sent:
    
    mod6: "Estimated Value Sent" excludes known change addresses. For example, let's say we have a single transaction where address A sends 1 BTC to address B and also 1 BTC back to address A as change, then only 1 BTC is estimated to have been sent. Proper use of a new change address for each transaction (like all HD wallet implementations) obfuscate this feature.
    
    mircea_popescu: trinque actually - wallet does notice the new inbound tx spending from one of its addresses.
    
    mircea_popescu: at least in all prb i know of
    
    mircea_popescu: asciilifeform your trb node is not capable to send money from derpy addresses ; which is ok because it's also not able to send to them. other people are more than free to do whatever the fuck they like.
    
    mircea_popescu: currently some miners process, eg, 3-leading bitcoin addresses. while that lasts, trb can send money to you. once it goes away - can send no longer, resulting in some lost bitcoin (practically, sent to unspendable address)
    
    asciilifeform: the thing i do not understand is, how does the thing not fork? say i fire up a prbtron and prbsend to A. then fire up trbtron and send same coin to B.
    
    asciilifeform: what prevents ?
    
    asciilifeform: possibly answer is, trb thinks i sent it to neverneverland ?
