Interesting. If you know that for sure then I'll accept it. Thank you.
However, all my testing indicates the INS7E creation EMMs (38C1 for SkyDE) have nothing to do with the card and are solely to do with the box, for the following reasons:-
1. These EMMs are addressed to the box not the card.
2. In UK there are currently THREE card types, 0960, 0961 and 0963. But there are only TWO 16 byte strings/keys/seeds. So where would the third card type get its data from?
3. I've logged the EMMs for two different card types in the same box. They are identical and give rise to exactly the same INS7E.
4. These 16 byte strings/keys/seeds follow the 30_15 and 31_15 nano_length tags. The first five bytes of these are flag bytes some of which denote the encryption method used (02 = TDES, 10 = AES etc) and which variation.
eg for SkyUK
30_15 00 01 00 02 03 .............
31_15 00 02 02 02 03 .............
eg for SkyDE
30_15 00 01 10 10 05 ............
31_15 00 02 10 10 05 ............
This suggests to me that, the following 16 bytes are the EK2 for the two different encryption types (TDES, AES etc) and variations, and the EK2 selected will be the one currently active.
