libWiiPy.title.commonkeys module#

libWiiPy.title.commonkeys.get_common_key(common_key_index, dev=False) bytes#

Gets the specified Wii Common Key based on the index provided. If an invalid common key index is provided, this function falls back on always returning key 0 (the Common Key). If the kwarg “dev” is specified, then key 0 will point to the development common key rather than the retail one. Keys 1 and 2 are unaffected by this argument.

Possible values for common_key_index: 0: Common Key, 1: Korean Key, 2: vWii Key

Parameters:
  • common_key_index (int) – The index of the common key to be returned.

  • dev (bool) – If the dev keys should be used in place of the retail keys. Only affects key 0.

Returns:

The specified common key, in binary format.

Return type:

bytes

Load existing TMD data into the title. Note that this will overwrite any existing TMD data for this title.

Parameters:

tmd (bytes) – The data for the WAD you wish to load.

load_wad(wad: bytes) None#

Load existing WAD data into the title and create WAD, TMD, Ticket, and ContentRegion objects based off of it to allow you to modify that data. Note that this will overwrite any existing data for this title.

Parameters:

wad (bytes) – The data for the WAD you wish to load.

set_content(dec_content: bytes, index: int, cid: int = None, content_type: int = None) None#

Sets the content at the provided content index to the provided new decrypted content. The hash and content size of this content will be generated and then set in the corresponding content record. A new Content ID or content type can also be specified, but if it isn’t then the current values are preserved.

This also updates the content records in the TMD after the content is set.

Parameters:
  • dec_content (bytes) – The new decrypted content to set.

  • index (int) – The index to place the new content at.

  • cid (int, optional) – The Content ID to assign the new content in the content record.

  • content_type (int, optional) – The type of the new content.

set_enc_content(enc_content: bytes, index: int, content_size: int, content_hash: bytes, cid: int = None, content_type: int = None) None#

Sets the content at the provided content index to the provided new encrypted content. The provided hash and content size are set in the corresponding content record. A new Content ID or content type can also be specified, but if it isn’t then the current values are preserved.

This uses the content index, which is the value tied to each content and used as the IV for encryption, rather than the literal index in the array of content, because sometimes the contents end up out of order in a WAD while still retaining the original indices.

This also updates the content records in the TMD after the content is set.

Parameters:
  • enc_content (bytes) – The new encrypted content to set.

  • index (int) – The index to place the new content at.

  • content_size (int) – The size of the new encrypted content when decrypted.

  • content_hash (bytes) – The hash of the new encrypted content when decrypted.

  • cid (int) – The Content ID to assign the new content in the content record.

  • content_type (int) – The type of the new content.

set_title_id(title_id: str) None#

Sets the Title ID of the title in both the TMD and Ticket. This also re-encrypts the Title Key as the Title Key is used as the IV for decrypting it.

Parameters:

title_id (str) – The new Title ID of the title.

set_title_version(title_version: str | int) None#

Sets the version of the title in both the TMD and Ticket.

Accepts either standard form (vX.X) as a string or decimal form (vXXX) as an integer.

Parameters:

title_version (str, int) – The new version of the title. See description for valid formats.

dump() bytes#

Dumps the TMD object back into bytes.

Returns:

The full TMD file as bytes.

Return type:

bytes

fakesign() None#

Fakesigns this TMD for the trucha bug.

This is done by brute-forcing a TMD body hash starting with 00, causing it to pass signature verification on older IOS versions that incorrectly check the hash using strcmp() instead of memcmp(). The signature will also be erased and replaced with all NULL bytes.

The hash is brute-forced by incrementing an unused 16-bit integer in the TMD by 1 until an appropriate hash is found.

This modifies the TMD object in place. You will need to call this method after any changes, and before dumping the TMD object back into bytes.

get_access_right(flag: int) bool#
