Dangerous NFC (BETA)
Free AppAbout Dangerous NFC (BETA)
This is the beta version of our Dangerous NFC app for Android. It will ensure your xNT has been protected against accidental locking or malicious attack. It does this by doing the following;
1) Analyze the tag to ensure it is set up in a standard configuration and assess risks
2) Conform the capability container to latest NFC standard (E1 12 6D 00)
3) Lock the capability container against accidental or malicious modification
4) Freeze static and dynamic lock bytes on the tag, locking user memory pages in a permanent read/write state
5) Set non-default password and password acknowledgement bytes to user defined password
6) Write protect configuration bytes against accidental or malicious modification using password protection
The app does not yet do any of the following;
- Write protect any of the user memory contents, only configuration bytes are protected
- Unlock the tag or disable the password
- Write any data to the tag (for now use NXP's TagWriter app for this)
Change Log:
v1.0.3 - updated copy on main screen
v1.0.2 - alternate keyboard compatibility fix
v1.0.1 - bug fix
v1.0 - initial release

Does exactly what it advertises. Make sure you find your phone's 'sweet spot' in relation to the implant for consistent readings

It works fine... But how do I put my debit card details on it? Or my house NFC key? Or my loyalty cards? I've read loads of people doing it on the Internet, but I cant find anywhere on HOW? Other than that it's the best thing for my implant...

Prevents malicious/accidental permanent locking of NDEF memory in read only state by permanently locking read/write state. Access can still be controlled by use of the password set by this app. Password set cannot be removed using "NFC TOOLS" app, can however be removed and reset by "RE>AD" app.

everything dangerous things puts out has been quality and fits the need for the device at the time. very much looking forward to the next thing that they will put out, because always quality is their number one goal, that's why in the end I go for their products first before anything else.

Is there a way to reverse this process if needed? Creating the password only seems to allow 4 characters and no way to remove the password via this app and other apps including windows based NFC apps no longer can see the chip in it's original state

Didn't allow me to set a password or anything, also it blocked me from further being able to do so. Blocked me from adding a mirror or view counter ever again as well.

Fast and easy way to protect vulnerable xNT chips by setting a password, and prevent others from knocking you into permanent read-only mode.

The lockbits are set correctly, but I'd like more flexibility in setting the configuration bits. I'd like to be able to password protect different parts of the data block (Not just the configuration block) and/or enable the counter or mirror functions... And possibly set the CFGLCK bit, but that should be more difficult to do. All in good time, I'm sure.

I finally had a chance to get my xNT installed yesterday, and the first thing I did was protect it with this app. The beta is pretty feature-light right now, but it seems to do everything it claims. Looking forward to seeing what else gets added in the future.

Are there any negatives at all to using this app? I'm not exactly sure what this app does to be honest

Could you allow NTAG213 tags in this app? They're basically the same and I'm experimenting with some cheap tags before doing it on the xNT. Edit: Thank you for adding NTAG213 support!

Would like to see some sort of verification, 'scan tag again to check' or somthing. And some info about each of the things it does. Looking forward to seeing how versatile and complete this tool will be. Feel much better now that no-one can 'brick' my tag.

I got a transceive error when I tried locking my tag, it's a NXP mifare ultralight C - NTAG206, will support ever be available for this tag?
