gpshell - command line tool for the management of GlobalPlatform compliant smart cards
gpshell can manage applications on smart cards supporting the GlobalPlatform. This comprises the installation and deletion of applications, getting the applications status and card data. These applications are practical always Java Card applets. Additional key management commands are provided.
The most common way to use gpshell is a script file. But it is also possible to read the commands from stdin if no script file is provided.
Reading the commands from stdin allows to feed in the commands dynamically and use conditionals when using the Expect pattern. Tools are available for a variety of script languages, shells and programming languages. Example are to support environment variables and handle results and output conditionally.
There are several txt example scripts provided which gets installed into usr/local/share/docs or /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/globalplatform/share/doc/gpshell1/ or can be found online.
Set protocol mode to OpenPlatform 2.0.1. This is the default.
Set protocol mode to GlobalPlatform 2.1.1 and later
For cards which use the VISA key derivation scheme for the key calculation, like GemXpresso Pro, Palmera Protect or some JCOP cards this must be set.
For cards which uses the EMV CPS 1.1 key derivation scheme for the key calculation, like a Sm@rtCafe Expert 3.0 this must be set.
Enable APDU trace
You will see the sent APDUs in clear text. The last two bytes of the response are the response code. A response code of 9000 means success, otherwise the response code indicates an error. This may be OK when deleting a non existing applet or package.
Enable the logging of the execution times of commands.
Establish context. This must always be executed before connecting to a card.
Connect to card in the reader with readerName. By default protocol is 0 = T0.
Connect to card in the x th reader in the system. By default protocol is 0 = T0.
Open a secure channel
For OpenPlatform 2.0.1’ cards only -keyind -keyver -mac_key and -enc_key are necessary.
For GlobalPlatform 2.1.1 and later cards -scp and -scpimpl should not be necessary to supply. You must also specify -kek_key.
If the card supports a Secure Channel Protocol Implementation with only one base key, specify this key with -key and omit the others.
If the card uses a key derivation mechanism you must enable the derivation mode with the -keyDerivation option and you must specify with -key the master (mother) key. -kek_key, -mac_key and -enc_key are not relevant is this case. See the section Options and Key Derivation. NOTE: If the secure channel is going to be opened when no security domain is selected then the command get_secure_channel_protocol_details must be executed before to be able to get the Secure Channel Protocol Implementation.
Select AID instance
Load and installs an applet in one step
The parameters -AID -instAID -pkgAID -nvCodeLimit can be detected automatically and the -AID and -instAID is set to the first applet in appletfile.
For the sdAID the AID selected with the select command is chosen if not given. Otherwise the default Card Manager / Security Issuer Domain AID is chosen. Usually you do not have to pass it.
Applet load preparation
For the sdAID the AID selected with the select command is chosen if not given. Otherwise the default Card Manager / Security Issuer Domain AID is chosen. Usually you do not have to pass it.
This command may be needed if the combined install command does not work.
Load applet
This command may be needed if the combined install command does not work.
Instantiate applet
This command may be needed if the combined install command does not work. Or you want to install a pre-installed Security Domain.
Disconnect card

Release context
Add or replace a key set version
If a new key set version is to be added keyver must be set to 0. If keyver equals newkeyver an existing key version is replaced. An existing key set version cannot be replaced with a key set version using a different key size.
Replace key set version keyver using key derivation derivation using the master (mother) key y
Add a RSA delegated management key in version newkeyver
Send APDU apdu without secure channel
The APDU is given as hex without spaces and without leading 0x.
A GET DATA command returning the data for the given identifier. See the identifier options for details.
A GET DATA command returning the key information templates in the selected security domain. NOTE: The security domain must be selected and this only works outside of a secure channel.
A GET DATA command returning the extended card resources information in the issuer security domain. NOTE: The security domain must be selected and this only works outside of a secure channel.
A GET DATA command returning the secure channel protocol details and remembering them for a later open_sc. NOTE: The security domain must be selected and this only works outside of a secure channel.
Prepare a security domain for the personalization of an applet with following store_data commands. NOTE: The security domain must be selected and this only works outside of a secure channel.
Executes a STORE DATA command passing the data to the selected applet.
A GET DATA command returning the card recognition data. NOTE: The security domain must be selected.
Deletes a key set version with a DELETE command. If only the keyver is passed the complete key set version is deleted. By default keyind is 0xFF to delete the complete key set version. If keyver is 0 all key set with the passed keyind are deleted.
Key index x
-keyver x Key set version x
New key set version x
Key value in hex
MAC key value in hex
ENC key value in hex
KEK key value in hex
0: clear, 1: MAC, 3: MAC+ENC, 51: MAC+ENC+R-MAC+E-ENC (SCP03 only), 19: MAC+ENC-R-MAC (SCP02+SCP03 only), 17: MAC+R-MAC (SCP02+SCP03 only)
Smart card reader name
Number of the reader in the system to connect to. If -reader is given this is ignored.
Protocol, 0:T=0, 1:T=1 Should not be necessary to be stated explicitly.
Applet ID
Security Domain AID
Package AID
Instance AID
Non-volatile code size limit
Non-volatile data size limit
Volatile data size limit
File name
Installation parameter
Element type to be listed in hex
Sets the format of the response of the get_status command. This is only used for GlobalPlatform cards and required and only needed if the default is not supported by the smart card.
Sets the data format flag for store_data command. Default 0.
Sets the encryption format flag for store_data command. Note that this is just a flag and the data must be passed already in the correct encryption. Default 0.
Sets if response data is expected for store_data command. 1 for expecting response data. Default 0.
Sets the key template index to return for the get_key_templates command. Default 0.
Secure Channel mode (0 off, 1 on)
APDU to be sent. Must be in hex format, e.g. 80CA00CF00.
Privilege. E.g. 0x04 Default Selected
Secure Channel Protocol (1 SCP01, 2 SCP02, 3 SCP03, default no set). Should not be necessary to be stated explicitly.
Secure Channel Implementation (default not set) Should not be necessary to be stated explicitly. See the get_secure_channel_protocol_details command to detect the Secure Channel Protocol Implementation.
Password for key decryption
Identifier for the tag for the get_data command. Must be in hex format, e.g. 9F7F.
There are several identifiers available but in general not all cards are supporting them. The GlobalPlatform specification v2.3.1 lists a few in section 11.3.3.1. It is useful to use some ASN.1 parser to interpret these data, like asn1js
Some useful identifier are:
Data in hex format for the store_data command.
Does not stop in case of an error
You see the command trace of a GET DATA command and the interpreted result.

Possible values are none, visa2 or emvcps11
Choose visa2 if you have a card which uses the VISA key derivation scheme for the key calculation, like GemXpresso Pro or some JCOP cards you must set this.
Choose emvcps11 If you have a card which uses the EMV CPS 1.1 key derivation scheme for the key calculation, like a Sm@rtCafe Expert 3.0 and later you must set this. Also for put_sc_key this is necessary for Sm@rtcafe 5.0 (and earlier(?)) cards
Enables debugging output from the underlying GlobalPlatform library.
Sets the log file name for the debugging output.
For the VISA2 key derivation scheme, like used in a GemXpresso Pro or some JCOP cards.
For the key derivation according to EMV CPS 1.1 (CDK (CPG 2.04)), like Sm@rtCafe Expert 3.0 and later.
Known unsupported key derivation schemes are:
For CosmopoliC 64K (tested on V5.2), you need to specify the Security Domain AID. For example,
install -file helloworld.cap -sdAID A000000003000000 -nvCodeLimit 4000For GemXpresso R3.2 E64, you need to specify the Security Domain AID (Card Manager AID). For example,
install -file helloworld.cap -sdAID A000000018434D00 -nvCodeLimit 4000If you cannot authenticate to your card it might be not fused. In this case you need the transport key from the vendor. Execute the JCOP IDENTIFY command.
select -aid A000000167413000FF Offset 14 (decimal) of the response has the pre-personalized state. 00h is not fused (not personalized), 01h is fused.
For the Cyberflex you also need the CAP transformer (I believe this is a kind of obfuscator) which you must apply to the CAP file. Download it from http://www.trusted-logic.fr/down.php and use it.
install_for_load fails for unknown reason, so nothing can be installed.
Some cards are not supporting the GET DATA command. This command is used by GPShell for retrieving the secure channel parameters. So you have to pass -scp 2 -scpimpl 0x15 to open_sc command.
