osmo-sim-auth is a small script that can be used with a PC-based smart card
reader to obtain GSM/UMTS authentication parameters from a SIM/USIM
card.

The program can be found in the git repository at git://git.osmocom.org/osmo-sim-auth, web-based browsing is available at http://cgit.osmocom.org/cgit/osmo-sim-auth

prerequisites

We assume that you have

• A smart card reader compatible with pcsc-lite
• Installed python program and pyscard library

=== smart card reader ===

Any reader supported by pcsc-lite will work. However, a reader
compatible with the USB CCID device class is much recommended.

Please verify that the hardware and driver setup is working, e.g. by
using the 'pcsc_scan' tool included with pcsc-lite. You should get an
output like: {{{

plus many more lines of output decoding the ATR.

If you only get {{{

then your card was not detected in the reader.
If you don't even get any displayed readers, your hardware and/or driver
setup are likely wrong.

=== pyscard ===

pyscard can be installed from packages of major Linux distributions.

If you want to build it from source, it is available from
http://pyscard.sourceforge.net/

running osmo-sim-auth

{{{
$ ./osmo-sim-auth.py --help
Usage: osmo-sim-auth.py [options]

Options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-a AUTN, --autn=AUTN AUTN parameter from AuC
-r RAND, --rand=RAND RAND parameter from AuC
-d, --debug Enable debug output
-s, --sim SIM mode (default: USIM)
}}}

you can run the program in two modes: * running GSM authentication (classic SIM card protocol) * running UMTS authentication (USIM card protocol)

=== classic GSM authentication ===

This mode will use the "RUN GSM ALGORITHM" command as specified in GMS
TS 11.11

You have to specify * the 16 byte RAND value from the AuC (-r) as 32 hex digits * the '-s' flag to enable SIM mode

}}}

=== UMTS authentication ===

This mode will use the "AUTHENTICATE" command as specified in 3GPP TS
31.102

You have to specify * the 16 byte RAND value from the AuC (-r) as 32 hex digits * the 16 byte AUTN value from the AuC (-a) as 32 hex digits

==== successful operation ====

In this case, the tool will output the following values obtained from
the card: * RES authentication result value * CK ciphering key * IK integrity key * Kc for inter-RAN handover from UMTS -> 2G

Secondly, the tool will re-run the authentication in "2G authentication
context" in order to obtain the SRES result. This value would be used
if a 3G/2G dual-mode phone registers on a 2G network.

==== synchronization required ====
In this case, the AUTHENTICATE command will return the AUTS parameter,
which has to be sent to the AuC in order to re-synchronzie the SQN
counter which is kept in both the USIM as well as the AuC.
