Lockpick_RCM

Lockpick_RCM is a bare metal Nintendo Switch payload that derives encryption keys for use in Switch file handling software like hactool, hactoolnet/LibHac, ChoiDujour, etc. without booting Horizon OS.

Due to changes imposed by firmware 7.0.0, Lockpick homebrew can no longer derive the latest keys. In the boot-time environment however, there is no such limitation.

Usage

  • It is highly recommended, but not required, to place Minerva on SD from the latest Hekate for best performance, especially while dumping titlekeys - the file and path is /bootloader/sys/libsys_minerva.bso
  • Launch Lockpick_RCM.bin using your favorite payload injector or chainloader
  • Upon completion, keys will be saved to /switch/prod.keys and titlekeys to /switch/title.keys on SD
  • This release bundles the Falcon keygen from Atmosphère-NX

Mariko-Specific Keys

Mariko consoles have several unique keys and protected keyslots. To get your SBK or the Mariko specific keys, you will need to use the /switch/partialaes.keys file along with a brute forcing tool such as https://files.sshnuke.net/PartialAesKeyCrack.zip. The contents of this file are the keyslot number followed by the result of that keyslot encrypting 16 null bytes. With the tool linked above, enter them in sequence for a given keyslot you want the contents of, for example: PartialAesKeyCrack.exe <num1> <num2> <num3> <num4> with the --numthreads=N where N is the number of threads you can dedicate to the brute force.

The keyslots are as follows, with names recognized by hactool:

  • 0-11 - mariko_aes_class_key_xx (this is not used by the Switch but is set by the bootrom; hactoolnet recognizes it but it serves no purpose)
  • 12 - mariko_kek (not unique - this is used for master key derivation)
  • 13 - mariko_bek (not unique - this is used for BCT and package1 decryption)
  • 14 - secure_boot_key (console unique - this isn't needed for further key derivation than what Lockpick_RCM does but might be nice to have for your records)
  • 15 - Secure storage key (console unique - this is not used on retail or dev consoles and not recognized by any tools)

So if you want to brute force the mariko_kek, open your partialaes.keys and observe the numbers beneath keyslot 12. Here's an example with fake numbers:

12
11111111111111111111111111111111 22222222222222222222222222222222 33333333333333333333333333333333 44444444444444444444444444444444

Then take those numbers and open a command prompt window at the location of the exe linked above and type: PartialAesKeyCrack.exe 11111111111111111111111111111111 22222222222222222222222222222222 33333333333333333333333333333333 44444444444444444444444444444444 and if you're on a powerful enough multicore system, add --numthreads=[whatever number of threads], ideally not your system's maximum if it's, for example, an older laptop with a low-end dual core CPU. On a Ryzen 3900x with 24 threads this generates a lot of heat but finishes in about 45 seconds.

These keys never change so a brute force need only be conducted once.

This works due to the security engine immediately flushing writes to keyslots which can be written one 32-bit chunk at a time. See: https://switchbrew.org/wiki/Switch_System_Flaws#Hardware
