Re: [Muscle] GPShell 1.0.0 release

Hello everyone,

some comments about Secure Channel Protocol:
(1) The applet does not need to support SCP, this support is available to
the applet from its Security Domain via the Global Platform API. The
applet does not need to have access to the keys.
(2) SCP is always used for package loading and applet installation, it can
optionally be used for applet personalization and by the applet during
runtime.
(3) Global Platform offers a compliance package for vendors who claim
proper implementation of the GP card specification.

All of this can be found on the Global Platform website:
http://www.globalplatform.org

Klaus.

Thanks. But this would mean that the applet must support secure channels
and the user of
the applet must also have access to the keys of the security domain.
With this much more is possible. Due to the fact that a secure channel
is established everything can be transmitted secretly, also without the
double encryption with the KEK. Both is possible. But I believe the goal
of GPShell is only to have a free platform for GlobalPlatform management
tasks. Ask the author.

Another problem, I know at least one card which has broken API support
within the card for this. GlobalPlatform is not a very well verified
standard on cards ...
