This project aims on reverse engineering protocol of Validity 138a:0090, 138a:0091, 138a:0094, 138a:0097 fingerprint readers, creating specification and FLOSS libfprint driver.

Notable files

  1. spec.md - Specification draft, the main work goes here right now.
  2. dissector.lua - Wireshark dissector for decrypting communication after key exchange.
  3. libfprint directory - libfprint repo with this driver integrated
  4. prototype - Standalone prototype(extremly ugly code, would be completly rewritten for driver)

Testing

Prototype testers are needed, please share your result and join us in our Gitter.
