Command line tool and library of useful Java classes for working with smart cards and smart card readers via JSR268 (commonly known as javax.smartcardio). While focus is on desktop PC/SC readers, some code can be re-used with arbitrary "APDU-command-response-ish" interfaces, either as CommandAPDU/ResponseAPDU pairs or plain byte arrays.

Features

  • PinPad support (PC/SC v2 part 10 / CCID)
  • Fixes all the stupid things with Java on non-windows platforms: OSX, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, CentOS, FreeBSD.
  • Java tools for convenient APDU logging, PIN handling and more
  • Bundles jnasmartcardio in the command line tool for easy testing with a sane javax.smartcardio implementation with reader locking
  • Easy to use RemoteTerminal for building central services

Get it now!

  • Download latest pre-built .JAR or .EXE from release area
  • Or fetch from github and build it yourself, it is really easy (more instructions in CONTRIBUTING):
git clone https://github.com/martinpaljak/apdu4j
cd apdu4j
./mvnw package

Usage from command line

  • Before you begin:

    • You can run the command line utility anywhere where Java runs, like this:

      java -jar apdu4j.jar

    • But it is easier to add an alias or use a wrapper.

    • On Linux add an alias to the shell like this:

      alias sc="java -jar $(PWD)/apdu4j.jar"
# Now you can avoid typing java -jar and sc works from any folder
sc -h

    • On Windows just use pre-packaged apdu4j.exe like this or rename it:

      apdu4j.exe -h

  • Display all options:

    sc -h

  • List readers:

    sc -l

    Will produce something like

    [ ] Gemalto Ezio Shield 01 00
[*] ACS ACR 38U-CCID 02 00

    The presence of a card or token is indicated with the asterisk

  • Be verbose:

    sc -l -v

    Will produce:

    # Using jnasmartcardio.Smartcardio - JNA2PCSC version 0.2
# Found 4 terminals
[X] [   ] Yubico Yubikey 4 U2F+CCID
          3BF81300008131FE15597562696B657934D4
[ ] [VMD] Gemalto Ezio Shield 01 00
[*] [   ] ACS ACR 38U-CCID 02 00
          3BF91300008131FE454A434F503234325233A2
[ ] [   ] ACS ACR 38U-CCID 03 00

    In addition to the ATR of the inserted card below the reader, PinPad features of the terminal are shown: V - PIN verification, M - PIN modification, D - display. X instead of the asterisk indicates a reader used exclusively by some other application.

  • Take you directly to the online ATR database

    sc -l -v -w

  • Use a virtual smart card reader provider (format for -p is jar:class:args, where args part can be URL-encoded):

    sc -p some.jar:com.example.VirtualTerminalProvider:tcp%3A%2F%2F192.168.1.1%3A7000 -lv

  • Send the APDU 00A40C0000 to the card:

    sc -a 00A40C0000

  • The same with forced T=0 protocol (similar for T=1):

    sc -t0 -a 00A40C0000

  • The same, with an additional APDU, while dumping everything to card.dump

    sc -t0 -a 00A40C0000 -a 80:01:04:00:00 -dump card.dump

  • SunPCSC - use specific PC/SC library:

    sc -lib /usr/local/lib/pcsclite.so -l

  • SunPCSC - don't issue GET RESPONSE commands:

    sc -no-get-response -a 00A4040000 -v

  • Show APDU-s sent to the card (using LoggingCardTerminal):

    add -debug or -d to your command

  • Be verbose:

    add -verbose or -v to your command

Usage from Java

Include the dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.martinpaljak</groupId>
    <artifactId>apdu4j</artifactId>
    <version>17.11.26</version>
</dependency>

More information can be found from Javadocs, which are always improving.

Before anything make sure you set the necessary properties to make javax.smartcardio work without tuning:

import apdu4j.TerminalManager;
TerminalManager.fixPlatformPaths();

LoggingCardTerminal

  • Show a debugging trace (like -d) of PC/SC calls and exhanged APDU-s with timing on System.out:
import apdu4j.LogginCardTerminal;
        
TerminalFactory f = TerminalFactory.getDefault();
CardReader r = f.terminals().terminal("Your Smart Card Reader Name");
reader = LoggingCardTerminal.getInstance(reader);
// Now use javax.smartcardio as you normally do
  • This will give you output similar to:
SCardConnect("SCM Microsystems Inc. SCR 355 00 00", T=*) -> T=1, 3BFC180000813180459067464A00680804000000000E
SCardBeginTransaction("SCM Microsystems Inc. SCR 355 00 00")
A>> T=1 (4+0000) 00A40400 00 
A<< (0018+2) (17ms) 6F108408A000000003000000A5049F6501FF 9000
A>> T=1 (4+0000) 80CA9F7F 00 
A<< (0000+2) (11ms) 6A88
  • Dump all APDU communication with a card to a file:
import apdu4j.LogginCardTerminal;
        
TerminalFactory tf = TerminalFactory.getDefault();
CardReader r = tf.terminals().terminal("Your Smart Card Reader Name");
FileOutputStream o = new FileOutputStream(new File("card.dump"));
reader = LoggingCardTerminal.getInstance(reader, o);
// Now use javax.smartcardio as you normally do
  • This will make a dump file similar to this:
# Generated on Wed, 31 Dec 2014 18:10:35 +0200 by apdu4j
# Using SCM Microsystems Inc. SCR 355 00 00
# ATR: 3BFE1800008031FE4553434536302D43443038312D6E46A9

History and motivation

When working with GlobalPlatformPro and JavaCard-s, some low level code wanted to sneak into projects where it did not belong, so it made sense to capture it into a separate library. Also, while command line tools for accessing readers on APDU (PC/SC) level existed for C, nothing was available for doing the same via Java stack, thus the need for a DWIM command line tool.
