PUP Watermark was added on FW 0.931.000.
SCEWM is a file embedded in the PUP to serve as a watermark.
 
PUP Watermark is present since at least FW 0.931.010. It was not present on FW 0.902.000. Nevertheless, on FW 0.931.010 the PUP watermark is never verified.
 
The SCEWM file is composed of 2 parts:
* SCEWM header: size 0x20 bytes.
* SCEWM body: size = file_size(usually 0x1000) - header_size(0x20). This part is encrypted.

The Issue ID for SCE/retail PUPs seems to be 0x5A.
The message length for prototype/retail PUP is almost always 0x5A, see below why.

The SCEWM file is composed of 3 parts:

* SCEWM body (unique data per issue ID): size = file_size(usually 0x1000) - header_size(0x20) - pup_sig_size(0x100). Its size may vary, check file_size in SCEWM header. This part IS ENCRYPTED.

After decryption, the body is composed of 3 parts:
 
* 0x100 bytes: RSA2048 signature of SHA256 of the PUP Header Digest. It is verified with SCEWM RSA public key. The PUP Header is independant of the watermark and so is the RSA signature.
* 0xDE0 bytes: plaintext ASCII message
* 0xDE0 bytes: plaintext ASCII message (unique message per DevNet issue ID or build time).
* 0x100 bytes: RSA2048 signature of that message
* 0x100 bytes: RSA2048 signature of SHA256 of 0xF00 bytes (SCEWM header + decrypted PUP Header Digest signature + decrypted message). It is verified with SCEWM RSA public key.


=== Message ===
=== PUP Header Digest RSA Signature ===


The message is generated on developer demand by DevNet server. The message syntax has changed with DevNet revisions.
It is RSA2048 of SHA256 of the PUP Header Digest. It is verified with SCEWM RSA public key.


The message is totally independant of the PUP. The same PUP (for example PSVita FW 0.945) downloaded from DevNet in 2011 and in 2018 has different message syntax.
=== Watermark Message ===


Here 'x' represents an actual character, which I hide for confidentiality.
==== Default Watermark Message ====


==== Prototype message (2010-12) ====
For external PUPs not bound to any developer, nor downloaded from DevNet, the watermark has the default message.


Format for System Software versions 0.931.010-3.740.011:

==== Old message (2011-02) ====
==== Dummy Watermark Message ====
 
For internal PUPs not bound to any developer, nor downloaded from DevNet, the watermark has the dummy message.

</pre>
 
==== DevNet Watermark Message ====
 
For external PUPs bound to a company, downloaded from DevNet, the watermark has the DevNet message.
 
The watermark message is generated on developer's demand by DevNet server, written to the PUP, then the PUP download starts. The message syntax has changed with DevNet revisions. Old message was seen as early as 2011-07-29 and was replaced by a new message at some time between 2016-04-15 and 2018-04-23 after that SilicaAndPina leaked some DevKit/TestKit PS Vita PUP files.
 
The watermark message is independant of the PUP. The same PUP (for example PS Vita 0.945.050 PUP) downloaded from DevNet in 2011 and in 2018 has different watermark message syntax but apart from Watermark (and maybe Additional Signature) is identical.
 
Here 'x' represents an actual character, hidden here for confidentiality.

PUP (Playstation Update Package) files are update archives for the PS3, PS Vita and PS4.

PUP Structure

A good resource on the PUP structure can be found here.

Update .PKG files

Most of the files in the update PUP are .pkg files, a sort of Certified File.

Each component of the update is broken up into multiple parts, then optionally compressed, and finally encrypted into the PKG.

Package Header

Right after the Certified File header (usually at offset 0x300 or 0x400) is the update package header that provides information for piecing the component back together. The contents of this header is as follows:

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x4 Version. 4 for PS Vita Update Packages.
0x4 0x4 Type
0x8 0x4 Flag
0xC 0x4 Target Hardware Info. For Ernie, Bic, Abby it is KBL Param#Hardware Info, for Grover it is ES revision, for Motion it is some hardware version (6, 7), for Touch it is Touchscreen hardware version (0x800A).
0x10 0x8 Update Version (System Firmware Version or Ernie Update Version). For Bic, Abby, it is 
((battery_HWinfo << 0x10) | battery_FWinfo)
.
0x18 0x8 Final size (decompressed)
0x20 0x8 Decrypted size
0x28 0x4 Flags requirements: 0 normal, 1 QA flag (sceQafMgrIsAllowQAUpdateForDriver) required, 2 manufacturing mode required

SCEWM

SCEWM is a file embedded in the PUP to serve as a watermark.

PUP Watermark is present since at least FW 0.931.010. It was not present on FW 0.902.000. Nevertheless, on FW 0.931.010 the PUP watermark is never verified.

The SCEWM file is composed of 2 parts:

  • SCEWM header: size 0x20 bytes.
  • SCEWM body: size = file_size(usually 0x1000) - header_size(0x20). This part is encrypted.

Header

This is a watermark for PUPs. For development PUPs, the Issue ID is unique to the company/organization the PUP is issued to.

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x6 Magic ('SCEWM\0')
0x6 0x2 ?Version? (ex: 00 01)
0x8 0x4 Unknown (ex: 01 00 00 00)
0xC 0x4 File Size (usually 0x1000)
0x10 0x4 Message length (ex: 0xD9, 0x5A)
0x14 0x4 Unknown (ex: 01 00 00 00)
0x18 0x4 Unknown (ex: 01 00 00 00)
0x1C 0x4 Unknown (ex: 01 00 00 00)

The message length for prototype/retail PUP is almost always 0x5A, see below why.

Body

The body is encrypted using AES128CBC with key and iv from update_service_sm.self.

After decryption, the body is composed of 3 parts:

  • 0x100 bytes: RSA2048 signature of SHA256 of the PUP Header Digest. It is verified with SCEWM RSA public key. The PUP Header is independant of the watermark and so is the RSA signature.
  • 0xDE0 bytes: plaintext ASCII message (unique message per DevNet issue ID or build time).
  • 0x100 bytes: RSA2048 signature of SHA256 of 0xF00 bytes (SCEWM header + decrypted PUP Header Digest signature + decrypted message). It is verified with SCEWM RSA public key.

PUP Header Digest RSA Signature

It is RSA2048 of SHA256 of the PUP Header Digest. It is verified with SCEWM RSA public key.

Watermark Message

Default Watermark Message

For external PUPs not bound to any developer, nor downloaded from DevNet, the watermark has the default message.

Format for System Software versions 0.931.010-3.740.011: 

desc: default watermark
id: build_team
timestamp: YYYYMMDD_HHmmSS_JST
host: build_machine

Dummy Watermark Message

For internal PUPs not bound to any developer, nor downloaded from DevNet, the watermark has the dummy message.

Here '??' represents a decimal number starting from '02'.

Format for watermark id 0x71: 

desc: dummy watermark
id: hoshi
timestamp: DDD MMM DD HH:mm:SS JST YYYY
host: p2bld-l??.build.rd.scei.sony.co.jp

Format for watermark id 0x72: 

desc: dummy watermark
id: hoshi
timestamp: Fri Aug 16 07:36:14 JST 2019
host: p2bld-vl??.build.rd.scei.sony.co.jp

Format for watermark id 0xAC: 

desc: dummy watermark
HH:mm:SS JST YYYY
host: p2bld-l??.build.rd.scei.sony.co.jp
id: hoshi
timestamp: DDD MMM DD HH:mm:SS JST YYYY
host: p2bld-l??.build.rd.scei.sony.co.jp

DevNet Watermark Message

For external PUPs bound to a company, downloaded from DevNet, the watermark has the DevNet message.

The watermark message is generated on developer's demand by DevNet server, written to the PUP, then the PUP download starts. The message syntax has changed with DevNet revisions. Old message was seen as early as 2011-07-29 and was replaced by a new message at some time between 2016-04-15 and 2018-04-23 after that SilicaAndPina leaked some DevKit/TestKit PS Vita PUP files.

The watermark message is independant of the PUP. The same PUP (for example PS Vita 0.945.050 PUP) downloaded from DevNet in 2011 and in 2018 has different watermark message syntax but apart from Watermark (and maybe Additional Signature) is identical.

Here 'x' represents an actual character, hidden here for confidentiality.

Old DevNet Watermark Message
# PUP watermark data that contain DevNet user id, org name, company name, date of PUP downloaded and host IP address
User id:xxxxxx
Org name:xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Company name:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Date PUP downloaded:YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm
Host IP address:xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
New DevNet Watermark Message
# PUP watermark data contain a serial_number that associates with the user who download this PUP
# Provide the serial number below to the DevNet development team to get user and org details.
PUP serial number:xxxxxxxx

SCEWM RSA Signature

It is RSA2048 of SHA256 of 0xF00 bytes: the SCEWM header + the decrypted SCEWM body. It is verified with SCEWM RSA public key.

Security

When comparing the same PUP signed for two different issue IDs, we can notice only 2 differences:

  • sometimes the message length in SCEWM header
  • the SCEWM encrypted unique data: the blocks of the message that differ and the RSA signature of the watermark

SCEAS

This file contains Additional Signature(s) (A.S.) necessary for validation of the PUP.

It was added on FW 0.996, probably for security reasons. This file is missing inside the Prototype DevKit PUP 0.945.040 (and all the pre-0.996 PUPs).

The SCEAS file is composed of 2 parts:

  • SCEAS header: size 0x20 bytes.
  • SCEAS body: size = file_size(usually 0x1000) - header_size(0x20). This part is encrypted.

Header

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x6 Magic ('SCEAS\0')
0x6 0x2 ?Version? (ex: 00 01)
0x8 0x4 Unknown (ex: 01 00 00 00)
0xC 0x4 File Size (usually 0x400)
0x10 0x4 Unknown (ex: 01 00 00 00)
0x14 0x4 Unknown (ex: 01 00 00 00)
0x18 0x4 Unknown (ex: 01 00 00 00)
0x1C 0x4 Certainly padding. (ex: 00 00 00 00)

Body

The body is encrypted using AES128CBC with key and iv from update_service_sm.self.

After decryption, the body is composed of 3 parts:

  • 0x100 bytes: RSA2048 signature of something unknown (to reverse). It is verified with SCEAS RSA public key.
  • 0x1E0 bytes: zeroes, maybe area for more than one signature, or just padding for decryption.
  • 0x100 bytes: RSA2048 signature of SHA256 of ?0x300 bytes (SCEAS header + decrypted unknown signature)?. It is verified with SCEAS RSA public key.
