PSVIMG files are encrypted files generated by CMA in backing up and restoring data from the Vita. The format is documented in this tool [1].

Generating PSVIMG

When CMA is used to backup system, game, or savedata from the PSVita to a PC or PS3, the following algorithm is used:

  1. Using a tar-like structure, stream all of the file data into a file.
  2. If making a PSVMD file, use the deflate algorithm to compress.
  3. Generate a random nonce for the first 0x10 bytes using the RndNumber syscall.
  4. Generate a unique session AES256-CBC key using a secret phrase and the PSN account id.
  5. Generate a SHA256 hash of the plaintext every 0x8000 bytes and insert the hash into the filestream.
  6. Encrypt the stream data using sceSblDmac5EncDecKeyGen with the nonce as the header and the AES256-CBC session key.
  7. Transmit to PC or PS3.

PSVIMG AES256-CBC key generation

If you look on your PC at the 16 character hex directory name included in part of the backup path, that is your PSN Account Id. The AES256-CBC session key is calculated by doing a SHA256 hash of the 8 byte hex binary representation of the PSN Account Id followed by the secret phrase: Sri Jayewardenepura Kotte then decrypting the buffer with AES128-ECB.

Example

Buffer of an example of PSN Account Id followed by secret phrase:

01 23 45 67 89 AB CD EF 53 72 69 20 4A 61 79 65 77
61 72 64 65 6E 65 70 75 72 61 20 4B 6F 74 74 65

SHA256 of this 0x20 bytes buffer:

02EAAB5A00EC9D4207E8B1F53F8A2F3F91F1A73AAFDD2A81CCFEE3E83E5B101A

To generate the PSVIMG AES256-CBC key, the buffer is decrypted using AES128-ECB with a 128 bits key located at offset 0x82DC in the 3.60 kprx_auth_sm (Prototype units use another key located at offset 0x7294 in 1.03 kprx_auth_sm ).

This key is set though kprx_auth_sm using service 0x50001).

It is then used in conjunction with encdec_w_portability to decrypt/encrypt PSVIMG blocks.

Example #2

This time we demonstrate with a zeroed PSN Account Id.

Offset(h) 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F

00000000  00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 53 72 69 20 4A 61 79 65  ........Sri Jaye

00000020  65                                               e

SHA-256 of this 0x21 bytes buffer:

186F29050C0D0D99038D86EFA9B6AD332E59564B7FFCA97985C09D64BD4BC442

The encrypted above hash produces the following result after decrypting with AES128-ECB:

Offset(h) 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F

This 0x20 bytes (256 bits) sized buffer is the PSVIMG AES256-CBC key.
