I'm having trouble with re-flashing with flash_encryption enabled, so I've burnt the BLOCK1 keys without read protection, here's the output:

BLK1 Flash encryption key
= 1a b2 bd d9 01 16 bd 91 63 ee 1a 81 3d da c8 29 6f 4f 1d 16 c1 dd b0 f0 eb 56 65 d4 e2 fe e2 87 R/W

I've tried a lot of combinations to get the key to use with "espsecure.py encrypt_flash_data ..", but none of them seems to work, as I get this error on monitor:

Code: Select all

rst:0x1 (POWERON_RESET),boot:0x13 (SPI_FAST_FLASH_BOOT)
flash read err, 1000
ets_main.c 371 
ets Jun  8 2016 00:22:57

rst:0x10 (RTCWDT_RTC_RESET),boot:0x13 (SPI_FAST_FLASH_BOOT)
flash read err, 1000
ets_main.c 371 
ets Jun  8 2016 00:22:57

What am I missing?

Hi,

When you say you are having trouble with re-flashing with flash encryption enabled does that mean that the first plaintext flashed got encrypted properly after flash encryption was enabled with pre-generated key and ESP32 boots correctly?

Could you provide details of all the steps you followed?

Also, you can provide the efuse dump using 'espefuse summary' command

Did you set the key tweak?

Yes, first flash encryption with FLASH_CRYPT_CNT on even number with "make flash" works just fine, here's what I did:

I need to burn a key without having the key in plaintext on a file, so I adapted the burn_key function from espefuse.py to consume a variable instead of a file.
After burning, i've saved the key in a separate file (for debugging), but when I use it with "espsecure.py encrypt_flash_data ..", the output of monitor is the one above. I'm sure I used the right addresses in encrypting and flashing. I'm encrypting and flashing the bootloader, partition table, factory and nvs_keys.

The base64 of my key.bin is: h+L+4tRlVuvwsN3BFh1PbynI2j2BGu5jkb0WAdm9sho=

I can't see what i'm missing, if could help me, I'd be thankful.

To expand on WiFive's answer, you can set this via:

Code: Select all

espefuse.py burn_efuse FLASH_CRYPT_CONF 0xF

Also, there are a number of other efuses which need to be burned to make the device configuration secure. You can burn these manually, but the recommended approach is to have the device do all of this on first boot when it self-encrypts.

Thanks Hemal, WiFive and Angus, that was the problem.
