Before any application command is processed, a Secure Channel session must be established as specified in the
[SECURE_CHANNEL.MD](SECURE_CHANNEL.MD) document.

## INITIALIZATION

After installation, the applet is not ready to operate and is in a pre-initializaed state. In this state the applet can
only process the SELECT and INIT command. The INIT command is used to personalize the PIN, PUK and pairing secret, which
must be generated off-card.

## PIN

During installation the user's PIN is set to 000000 (six times zero). The PIN length is fixed at 6 digits. After 3
failed authentication attempts the PIN is blocked and authentication is not possible anymore. A blocked PIN can be
replaced and unblocked using a PUK. The PUK is a 12-digit number, unique for each installation and is generated off-card
and passed as an installation parameter to the applet according to the JavaCard specifications. After 5 failed attempts
to unblock the applet using the PUK, the PUK is blocked, meaning the wallet is lost.

After authentication, the user remains authenticated until the application is either deselected or the card is reset.
Authentication with PIN is a requirement for most commands to succeed.

The PIN can be changed by the user after authentication.

The Key UID can be either empty (when no key is loaded on card) or the SHA-256 hash of the master public key.

This command is only available when the applet is in pre-initialized state and successful execution brings the applet in
the initialized state. This command is needed to allow securely storing secrets on the applet at a different moment and
place than installation is taking place. Currently these are the PIN, PUK and pairing password.

The client must take the public key received after the SELECT command, generate a random keypair and perform EC-DH to
generate an AES key. It must then generate a random IV and encrypt the payload using AES-CBC with ISO/IEC 9797-1 Method
2 padding.

They payload is the concatenation of the PIN (6 digits/bytes), PUK (12 digits/bytes) and pairing secret (32 bytes).

This scheme guarantees protection against passive MITM attacks. Since the applet has no "owner" before the execution of
this command, protection against active MITM cannot be provided at this stage. However since the communication happens
locally (either through NFC or contacted interface) the realization of such an attack at this point is unrealistic.

After successful execution, this command cannot be executed anymore. The regular SecureChannel (with pairing) is active
and PIN and PUK are initialized.

## Alternative installation method
This method does not require the JavaCard SDK but requires an already compiled CAP file. The cards generated this way
have a random PUK and pairing code so they have better security. However applet installation/removal is not disabled,
because the script is still meant to be used during the development phase.

1. Install GPShell and Python 3
2. Put the wallet.cap file in the same directory as status_hw_perso.py
3. Disconnect all card reader terminals from the system, except the one with the card where you want to install the applet
4. Run the status_hw_perso.py script with no arguments.
5. Take note of the pairing code and PUK output by the script

## Implementation notes

* The applet requires JavaCard 3.0.4 or later.
