Glitching microcontrollers to reveal hidden secrets can seem like a dark art performed by hardware magicians. Staring at code and counting clock cycles doesn't make it any more approachable to new users.
Glitchy is a visual interface to the world of glitching. It ties together other hardware such as power supplies, serial interfaces and debugging tools which are often used as part of a successful glitch attack.
Check out the YouTube video introduction
Ensure you have privileges to use USB serial devices (dialout in Ubuntu), Debug adaptors via OpenOCD and permissions to access the Chipwhisperer. Those devices should be configured properly prior to using Glitchy.
requirements.txt contains the necessary Python packages. Install with the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/BitBangingBytes/Glitchy.git
cd Glitchy
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
To Run:
cd src
python3 Main.py
This is a tool I am using to teach myself Python, GUI programming and push into an uncomfortable space, software development! I have always been comfortable with hardware, but not so much with large software projects. With that said, any contributions that improve the code style or structure with explanations would be greatly appreciated!
Feel free to use this however you wish, by reading this sentence you have voided your warranty!
Happy Hacking
