Package Information

DescriptionGlobalPlatform Shell smart card script interpreter

GlobalPlatform is a standard for handling applets, keys and security of smart cards (see www.globalplatform.org).

GPShell (GlobalPlatform Shell) is a script interpreter which talks to a smart card. It is written on top of the GlobalPlatform library, which was developed by Karsten Ohme. It uses smart card communication protocols ISO-7816-4 and OpenPlatform 2.0.1 and GlobalPlatform 2.1.1. It can establish a secure channel with a smart card, load, instantiate, delete, list applets on a smart card.

This package constains the script-based 'gpshell' and new 'gpshell3' command-line tool.

License: GPL-3+ with OpenSSL exception
 Components of GlobalPlatform are licensed under a mix of GPLv3+,
 LGPLv3+, LGPLv3+-with-OpenSSL-exception, and
 LGPLv3+-with-OpenSSL+GPL-exception.  The license statements are not
 uniform, see <https://github.com/kaoh/globalplatform/issues/81>, and
 we chose a conservative fallback of treating the entire package as
 GPLv3+ pending clarification of the licensing.  All license
 statements allows use under GPLv3+ and exception clause removal.
