How to Crack Mifare 1k RFID card

The NFC tag I analyzed is a so called “Mifare Classic 1k” tag. 1k stands for the size of data the tag can store. There are also other types like the “Mifare Classic 4k” and the “Mifare Mini” each having a different memory size.

A Mifare Classic 1k tag contains 16 sectors. Each of these sectors has 3 blocks of data storage and 1 block for storing the secret access keys and access controls. Each block contains 16 bytes of data. Before reading a sector, the reader must authenticate to the tag with a secret access key. Each sector has two keys: Key A and Key B Each of the 16 sectors can define it’s own access right and wich key is needed for a particular action. As an example you can define to use Key A for reading the block and Key B for writing to it. Sector 0 Block 0 also contains a non changeable UID (the tags unique ID) and some manufacturer data. This section is only writeable on some special chinese tags.

Here is a basically memory layout of a Mifare Classic tag:

Important notice: NFC and the used attack depend a lot on timing. Connecting a NFC device to a VM running linux will not work reliable because the drivers mess with this timing. I spent a lot of time finding this out, so please boot into a linux live cd for the following example or use a Raspberry Pi.

TODO

apt-get install autoconf libtool libusb-dev libpcsclite-dev build-essential
wget https://github.com/nfc-tools/libnfc/releases/download/libnfc-1.7.1/libnfc-1.7.1.tar.bz2 #added this package
tar -jxvf libnfc-1.7.1.tar.bz2
cd libnfc-1.7.1
autoreconf -vis
./configure --with-drivers=all --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install
sudo mkdir /etc/nfc
sudo mkdir /etc/nfc/devices.d

When using the USB TTL cable issue the following command:

sudo cp contrib/libnfc/pn532_via_uart2usb.conf.sample /etc/nfc/devices.d/pn532_via_uart2usb.conf

If you connect the breakout board directly to your Raspberry PI’s UART pins you need to copy the following file:

sudo cp contrib/libnfc/pn532_uart_on_rpi.conf.sample /etc/nfc/devices.d/pn532_uart_on_rpi.conf

There are other config files like SPI too, just look in the contrib/libnfc/ folder and select the appropriate file. If you use Kali the libnfc library is already installed, but missing some drivers (in my case the uart driver). You can overwrite the Kali installation with the setup from above.

After installing we need to test the communication to the NFC-reader. Connect your NFC device and run the following command

nfc-list

it should output something like (example with USB-UART Cable)

# nfc-list
nfc-list uses libnfc 1.7.1
NFC device: pn532_uart:/dev/ttyUSB0 opened

On a Raspberry Pi it shows

# nfc-list
nfc-list uses libnfc 1.7.1
NFC device: pn532_uart:/dev/ttyAMA0 opened

mfoc

Now your reader is connected and we can start cracking our keys. We will use the tool “mfoc - Mifare Classic Offline Cracker” available from https://github.com/nfc-tools/mfoc. Kali linux has it already installed.

If you are not on KALI or you want the latest version of mfoc you need to compile it on your own by executing the following commands.

wget -O mfoc-master.zip https://github.com/nfc-tools/mfoc/archive/master.zip #added this package
unzip mfoc-master.zip
cd mfoc-master/

or clone via git

git clone https://github.com/nfc-tools/mfoc.git
cd mfoc/
autoreconf -vis
./configure
make
make install

start cracking

To start the key cracking connect your reader, place the tag on the antenna and run

mfoc -O output.mfd

If the tool outputs “Maybe you should increase the number of probes”, the cracking was not successful. I got this message when running in a VMWare environment or by using crappy hardware. Switching to the Adafruit breakout board and a dedicated linux solved the problem for me.

If you manage to crack all the keys you can see the HEX encoded contents of the key on your terminal and also in the output file output.mfd.

# mfoc -O output.mfd

The file shows all 16 sectors. Here is an example of one sector: 3x16 bytes of data followed by 16 bytes of access keys and accecss bits.

Block 0 | 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
Block 1 | 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
Block 2 | 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00
Block 3 | a0 a1 a2 a3 a4 a5 78 77  88 69 b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5

This is an empty block, Key A is a0 a1 a2 a3 a4 a5, Key B is b0 b1 b2 b3 b4 b5 and the access bits are 78 77 88. The value 69 is contained in a special register available for user data (see the Mifare Classic Datasheet for more information).

to reflash the captured output of mfoc via nfc-mfclassic:

# nfc-mfclassic w B output.mfd output.mfd
NFC reader: pn532_uart:/dev/ttyUSB0 opened
Found MIFARE Classic card:

Done, 62 of 64 blocks written.

After examining other tags for the same vending machine I noticed that these all have different keys. It seems like the vending machine calculates the keys based on the tags unique UID or something else to add an extra layer of security. So far I have not managed to crack the scheme.

Tested hardware (RFID Reader)

PN532:

ACR122U:

connect PN532 to pi:

Pi3 PIN #	PN532
#2	VCC
#6	GND
#8	RXD
#10	TXD

config Pi3:

# raspi-config //goto advance option and set SPI,Serial,I2C => Disable
# reboot
$ sudo nano /boot/config.txt //search and set 'enable_uart=1'

other connection I2c,SPI,UART /etc/libnfc/devices.d

note i onlly test UART & USB connection

#UART
name = "PN532 board via UART"
connstring = pn532_uart:/dev/ttyAMA0

#I2C
#device.name = "_PN532_I2c"
#device.connstring = "pn532_i2c:/dev/i2c-1"

#SPI
#device.name = "_PN532_SPI"
#device.connstring = "pn532_spi:/dev/spidev0.0:280000"

#USB
#name = "Adafruit PN532 board via UART"
#connstring = pn532_uart:/dev/ttyUSB0

if you want to use SPI or I2c ,you must enable it in #raspi-config 'advance option'

I2C

PN532 NFC	Raspberry Pi
VCC	5V/3.3V
GND	GND
SDA	I2C1 SDA
SCL	I2C1 SCL

the try this command to check whether the I2C device is recognized

$i2cdetect  -y  1

also works #nfc-list and #nfc-poll

SPI

PN532 NFC	Raspberry Pi
VCC	5V/3.3V
GND	GND
SCK	SPI0 SCKL
MISO	SPI0 MISO
MOSI	SPI0 MOSI
SS/SDA	CE0/CS0

now both works #nfc-list and #nfc-poll

connect via USB

you can also work with PN532 and usb_TTL/FTDI in kali_linux/RaspBerryPi
