Making USB Accessible

Cynthion is an all-in-one tool for building, testing, monitoring, and experimenting with USB devices. Built around a unique FPGA-based architecture, Cynthion’s digital hardware can be fully customized to suit the application at hand. As a result, it can act as a no-compromise High-Speed USB protocol analyzer, a USB research multi-tool, or a USB development platform.

Out-of-the-box, Cynthion acts as a USB protocol analyzer capable of capturing and analyzing traffic between a host and any Low-, Full-, or High-Speed (“USB 2.0”) USB device. It works seamlessly with our open-source analysis software, Packetry.

Combined with LUNA gateware and Facedancer libraries, Cynthion becomes a versatile USB research and development tool. Facedancer makes it quick and easy to create or tamper with real USB devices—not just emulations—even if you don’t have experience with digital-hardware design, HDL, or FPGA architecture!

No extra cables are included! You may need a variety of USB A & C cables to connect to your computer/target.

Core Features

Cynthion is a fully reconfigurable test instrument that provides all the hardware, gateware, firmware, and software you need to work with—and, indeed, to master—USB. Below are a few of the challenges to which you can apply your Cynthion:

• Protocol analysis for Low-, Full-, and High- speed USB. Cynthion provides everything you need for passive USB monitoring. With Packetry USB analysis software, Cynthion provides everything you need for passive USB monitoring.

• Creating your own Low-, Full-, or High- speed USB device. LUNA provides Amaranth gateware that allows you to create USB devices in gateware, firmware, or a combination of the two. Using the Facedancer library, you can create or emulate real USB devices in high-level Python.

• Meddler-in-the-Middle (MitM) attacks on USB communication. Cynthion hardware can function as a "USB proxy" capable of transparently modifying USB data as it flows between a host and a device. Each board’s three USB Type-C connections allow for simultaneous, high-speed proxying while maintaining a high-speed connection to the host. As a result, you can proxy a connection with or without the help of a host PC.

• USB reverse engineering and security research. Cynthion hardware and LUNA gateware represent a purpose-built backend for research tools like Facedancer and USB-fuzzing libraries, thereby simplifying the emulation and rapid prototyping of compliant and non-compliant USB devices. Unlike other USB-emulation solutions, Cynthion-based hardware is dynamically reconfigurable, so it gives you the flexibility to create any endpoint configuration and engage in almost any USB (mis)behavior.
