Indiana Holmes 79612197a1 Card-Crack: Cardputer ESP32-S3 home-lab recon toolkit
Manual-trigger firmware toolkit for pentesting owned devices:
- Pin Scan: UART/JTAG/SWD detection (baud est + IDCODE reads)
- V-Sense: target voltage probe w/ logic-family guess
- UART Sniff: passive capture + manual-only frame replay
- USB Enum: ESP32-S3 host, read-only descriptor fingerprinting
- DefCred: single-host factory-default login check, rate-limited

Modular shell (core/ + modules/), PlatformIO build, hardware/safety docs.

Card-Crack

A manual-trigger hardware/network recon toolkit for the M5Stack Cardputer (ESP32-S3), built for home-lab pentesting of devices you own — your router, a car's OBD/USB port, a PC, smart appliances.

⚠️ Authorized use only. Every tool here is scoped for your own bench: single targets you enter by hand, curated default-credential lists (not brute-force), rate-limited network checks, and read-only descriptor/ID reads. Nothing scans, transmits, or replays on its own — you press the action key. Don't point it at anything you don't own or run.

Modules

Module What it does
Pin Scan JTAGulator-style detection of UART / JTAG / SWD pins on the probe header. UART baud estimation; JTAG & SWD IDCODE reads.
V-Sense Live target-voltage probe through a divider; guesses the logic family so you know what you're touching before driving a pin.
UART Sniff Passive UART capture (hex+ascii, selectable baud); freeze a frame and replay it on a keypress (manual TX only).
USB Enum ESP32-S3 as USB host — reads descriptors (VID/PID, class, strings, config) to fingerprint an unknown device. Read-only.
DefCred Checks a single host (default: gateway) against a short list of factory-default logins over HTTP Basic Auth. Stops on first hit.

Build & flash

Requires PlatformIO.

# set your lab Wi-Fi for the DefCred module (or edit defcred.cpp)
pio run -e cardputer \
  -a "--build-property build.flags=-DCC_WIFI_SSID='\"MyAP\"' -DCC_WIFI_PASS='\"secret\"'"
pio run -e cardputer -t upload
pio device monitor

See docs/HARDWARE.md before wiring — the S3 is a 3V3 part and 5V on a bare GPIO will destroy it.
