Firmware Keys
Introduction
These keys are for use with the tool "VFDecrypt" to decrypt the root filesystem DMG found in every IPSW. The DMG that you are after is the bigger one, in the case of the most recent builds, it can sometimes be 400+ MB!
VFDecrypt Usage
mac: ./vfdecrypt -i <dmg> -o decrypted_fs.dmg -k <key> windows: vfdecrypt.exe -i <dmg> -o decrypted_fs.dmg -k <key>
Gaps
As you will notice, there may be a gap or two, or a key for a current build that is not there. Please feel free to add them, but please be sure that it is only the key for a User or Developer build, as if you gave the key for another type of build that might or may not be out there people could get in trouble, and we do not want that. Thanks for contributing!
Coming Soon
AutoDecrypt is another program currently being developed, it is a GUI ( with Terminal/CMD optional ) that will automatically decrypt the .dmg comparing it against a database of known vfdecrypt keys. It is being developed originally for Windows but a Linux version will follow soon ( and possibly Mac is someone will port it)
