The SGP.22 specification defines a comprehensive set of error codes, many of which are reused across different functions.\marginpar{Exceptions are categorized by function context and specific error type.} To allow both coarse-grained and fine-grained error handling, the exception hierarchy in our implementation is explicitly structured around two core ideas: \begin{itemize} \item \textbf{Function-based exceptions} encapsulate the context in which the error occurred (e.g., Profile Management, \gls{isdr} interactions). \item \textbf{Error-based exceptions} represent the specific error raised (e.g., \gls{iccid} not found, \gls{aid} missing). \end{itemize} All exceptions inherit from a common \texttt{EuiccException} base class, ensuring they can be captured uniformly when needed. \subsection*{Exception Hierarchy} \marginpar{Hierarchy enables both broad and precise exception handling.} The exception hierarchy is structured such that all specific error exceptions (e.g. \texttt{IccidNotFound}) inherit from a relevant function exception (e.g. \texttt{ProfileInteractionException}), which itself inherits from \texttt{EuiccException}. This enables both precise and broad exception matching, depending on the caller’s needs. For example: \begin{center} \texttt{EuiccException} $\rightarrow$ \texttt{ProfileInteractionException} $\rightarrow$ \texttt{IccidOrAidNotFound} \end{center} This structure is illustrated in \cref{lst:code-base-exception} and \cref{lst:function-exception}. \begin{lstlisting}[language=python,label={lst:code-base-exception},caption={Class to raise exception based on the error code and restructure the inheritance.}] class CodeBaseException(EuiccException): """Base class for all exceptions raised by the result handling.""" message: str = "An unknown code error occurred" error_map: dict[int, Type['EuiccException']] def __init__(self, message: str | None = None): if message: self.message = message super().__init__(self.message) @classmethod def raise_from_code(cls, code: int): """Raises the appropriate exception subclass based on the error code.""" exception_class = cls.error_map.get(code, UndefinedError) exception_class.__bases__ = (cls,) raise exception_class() \end{lstlisting} \begin{lstlisting}[language=python,label={lst:function-exception},caption={Implementation of the \lstinline{CodeBaseException} Class.}] class ProfileInteractionException(CodeBaseException): """Base class for all exceptions raised by the profile handling.""" message: str = "An unknown profile interaction error occurred" error_map = { 1: IccidOrAidNotFound, 2: ProfileNotInEnabledState, 3: DisallowedByPolicy, 4: WrongProfileReenabling, 5: CatBusy, 6: DisallowedByEnterpriseRule, 7: CommandError, 8: DisallowedForRpm, 9: NoEsimPortAvailable, 127: UndefinedError, } class IccidOrAidNotFound(EuiccException): message = "ICCID or AID not found" \end{lstlisting} \subsection*{Benefits} This exception model provides the following advantages: \marginpar{Clean exception abstraction improves introspection during fuzzing and test execution.} \begin{itemize} \item \textbf{Modular extensibility:} New error types can be added per function with minimal changes. \item \textbf{Granular diagnostics:} Developers can differentiate between general failure (\texttt{ProfileInteractionException}) and specific causes (\texttt{IccidNotFoundException}). \item \textbf{Cleaner call sites:} Exceptions can be caught using either the general or specific class, depending on context. \end{itemize} This exception system enables detailed introspection during fuzzing and testing while maintaining a clean abstraction between components. % \todo{add section about inital testing of nonce randomness} \section{CLI Structure} \label{sec:cli_structure} The CLI is organized around three core commands: \begin{itemize} \item \textbf{tracing} — Interfaces with the \texttt{simtrace2} device and the \gls{lpa} to capture \gls{apdu} traffic in real time. This functionality is discussed in detail in \cref{sec:tracing}.\marginpar{CLI provides tracing, lpa, and fuzzing commands for core system interaction.} \item \textbf{lpa} — Exposes \gls{euicc} communication features such as profile management, notification handling, and remote procedure execution via the \gls{cli}. \item \textbf{fuzzing} — Wraps both \gls{apdu}-level and data-level fuzzing. Additionally, it provides a \texttt{compare} command to compare multiple trace recordings and highlight structural differences in JSON format. \end{itemize} \marginpar{Each CLI command resides in a dedicated subfolder.} Each of these commands is implemented in its respective subfolder (e.g., \texttt{tracing/}, \texttt{lpa/}, \texttt{fuzz/}). The modular structure of the \gls{cli} is shown in \cref{fig:cli_structure}, which illustrates how the subcommands map to the file and folder hierarchy of the project. \begin{figure}[h] \centering \begin{forest} for tree={ font=\ttfamily, grow'=0, child anchor=west, parent anchor=south, anchor=west, calign=first, inner sep=1pt, l=1.5em, s sep=3pt, edge path={ \noexpand\path [draw, \forestoption{edge}] (!u.south west) +(3.5pt,0) |- node[fill,inner sep=1.25pt] {} (.child anchor)\forestoption{edge label}; }, before typesetting nodes={ if n=1 {insert before={[,phantom]}} {} }, fit=band, before computing xy={l=15pt}, } [cli [\_\_init\_\_.py] [fuzzer [\_\_init\_\_.py] [apdu\_fuzzer.py] [compare.py] [data\_fuzzer.py] ] [trace [\_\_init\_\_.py] [record.py] [replay.py] ] [lpa [\_\_init\_\_.py] [euicc.py] [notification.py] [profile.py] ] ] \end{forest} \caption{\gls{cli} folder structure and modular separation of functionality} \label{fig:cli_structure} \end{figure} \paragraph{Dispatch and Argument Parsing} Each submodule implements a \texttt{run()} function that parses the subcommand’s specific arguments and dispatches execution to the appropriate internal handler. At the top level, the root \texttt{\_\_init\_\_.py} file defines the global parser, registers the subcommands via subparsers, and handles any global options. This design pattern is shown in \cref{lst:cli_parser}. \begin{lstlisting}[caption={Top-level CLI dispatch pattern}, label={lst:cli_parser}] def add_subparser(parent_parser: argparse._SubParsersAction) -> None: trace_parser: argparse.ArgumentParser = parent_parser.add_parser( "trace", help="Trace-level operations (record, replay)", formatter_class=RichHelpFormatter, ) trace_subparsers = trace_parser.add_subparsers(dest="trace_command", required=True) record.add_subparser(trace_subparsers) replay.add_subparser(trace_subparsers) def run(args: argparse.Namespace) -> None: if args.trace_command == "record": record.run(args) elif args.trace_command == "replay": replay.run(args) \end{lstlisting} Each subcommand module (e.g., \texttt{fuzz/data\_fuzz.py}) provides its own parser configuration and encapsulated logic, adhering to a clearly defined interface. \section{APDU Status Word Codes} \label{sec:sw_codes} In the context of \gls{apdu} communication with \glspl{euicc}, each Response-APDU (R-APDU) from the card ends with a two-byte Status Word (SW), which indicates the outcome of the command execution.\marginpar{Each R-APDU ends with a 16-bit Status Word indicating command execution outcome.} The SW is encoded as a 16-bit hexadecimal value and follows the ISO/IEC 7816-4 specification \cite{isoiec_isoiec_2006}. Some SW codes contain fixed values, whereas others use placeholders (represented as \texttt{??} or \texttt{XX}) to indicate that specific bits may vary, often encoding additional information such as a retry count or the number of bytes remaining. \cref{tab:sw_codes} provides an overview of some of the most frequently observed status words. \begin{table}[H] \centering \begin{tabular}{|c|p{10cm}|} \hline \textbf{SW Code} & \textbf{Description} \\ \hline \texttt{9000} & Normal ending of the command. This indicates that the command was executed successfully and no further action is required. \\ \texttt{61XX} & Command executed successfully; \texttt{XX} bytes of data are available for retrieval using a subsequent \texttt{GET RESPONSE} command. \\ \texttt{91XX} & Command executed successfully; the card has sent a proactive command that the terminal must fetch. The \texttt{XX} indicates the length of the pending command. \\ \texttt{6A82} & File not found. This error typically occurs when the requested EF (Elementary File) or DF (Dedicated File) does not exist in the current context. \\ \texttt{6982} & Security status not satisfied. This usually implies that access conditions (e.g., PIN verification) were not met before executing the command. \\ \texttt{6D00} & Instruction code not supported or invalid. The \gls{euicc} does not recognize the INS byte of the command. \\ \texttt{6F00} & Technical problem with no precise diagnosis. Often a fallback or catch-all error code indicating an internal card error or undefined behavior. \\ \hline \end{tabular} \caption{Common \gls{apdu} Status Words} \label{tab:sw_codes} \end{table}
