paccor4esp

A Platform Attribute Certificate Creator for the ESP32 microcontroller.

How to use

  1. Download the latest release of the official PACCOR repository
  2. Clone this repository and copy the contents to a new folder in "{HOME}\paccor\scripts\esp" named "esp"

The paccor project structure should look as follows:

├── bin     Original [PACCOR](https://github.com/nsacyber/paccor/releases/) repository contents
├── docs
├── lib
└── scripts
    ├── allcomponents.sh
    ├── get_ek.sh
    ├── .....  
    ├── smbios.sh
    ├── esp         NEW folder with contents of this repository
        ├── allcomponents.py        The Python log parsing module
        ├── CMakeLists.txt          Gets automatically generated on first run
        ├── esp_logfile.txt         Gets automatically generated on first run
        ├── pc_certgen.ps1          Main entrypoint for Windows machines
        ├── pc_certgen.sh           Main entrypoint for Linux/MacOS machines
        ├── sdkconfig               Gets automatically generated on first run
        └── main
            ├── allcomponents.c     C module for extracting data from the ESP32
            ├── allcomponents.h     Corresponding header file
            ├── CMakeLists.txt      Gets automatically generated on first run
            ├── conf.c              C module for Wifi, Bluetooth, NVS initializations
            └── conf.h              Corresponding header file
    └── windows

  1. Download and install the ESP-IDF (Espressif IoT Development Framework)
  2. Download and install the dependencies
    • Python>=3.8 and python-pip
    • Git
    • CMake
  3. Set the variables in the pc_certgen.sh or pc_certgen.ps1 script depending on your OS
    • Set the ESPRESSIF_IDF_HOME path variable (installation path of your ESP-IDF)
    • Set the ESPRESSIF_IDF_HOME path variables ("{HOME}\paccor\scripts\esp")
    • Adjust the certificate parameters (such as serial number and validity)
    • Adjust the ESP-specific variables such as baud rate, serial port name and target device type
    • Extend/amend the ESP-specific sdkconfig variables if needed
  4. Adjust the partition table CSV file, the sdkconfig file and generate a new secure boot signing key.
  5. Remove the pc_testgen directory (this is just a sample build)
  6. Run pc_certgen.ps1 or pc_certgen.sh

Troubleshooting

  • Check your hardware connection, are you attached to the USB or UART port?
  • Check if your serial port is visible on your Windows machine (Device Manager) or Linux machine (dmesg | grep tty).
  • Check your baud rate.
  • Did you close your serial monitor terminal window before you tried flashing the ESP again?
