SIMtrace v2.0

This is the repository for the next-generation SIMtrace devices, providing abilities to trace the communication between (U)SIM card and phone, remote (U)SIM card forward, (U)SIM man-in-the-middle, and more.

NOTE: Nothing in this repository applies to the SIMtrace v1.x hardware or its associated firmware. SIMtrace v1.x is based on a different CPU / microcontroller architecture and uses a completely different software stack and host software.

This Repository

This repository contains several directory

firmware - the firmware to run on the actual devices
hardware - some information related to the hardware
host - Programs to use on the USB host to interface with the hardware

The host software includes

libosmo-simtrace2 - a shared library to talk to devices running the simtrace2 firmware
simtrace2-list - list any USB-attached devices running simtrace2 firmware
simtrace2-sniff - interface the 'trace' firmware to obtain card protocol traces
simtrace2-cardem-pcsc - interface the 'cardem' fimrware to use a SIM in a PC/SC reader
