 # Handoff — LSX handshake complete end-to-end
 **Date:** 2026-07-02
 **Scope of the session:** `openfut-bridge` (the delivery test) that expanded into
 `openfut-launcher/openfut-hook` (the fix). Nothing was committed — everything below is
 uncommitted working-tree state.
 Read `docs/connection-gate-findings.md` (bottom two sections) for the full technical
 narrative. This file is the short "where we are / what to do next" version.
 ---
 ## TL;DR
 FIFA 23 now completes the **LSX handshake and holds a sustained encrypted session
 against our own bridge**, live — the first EA-side step our code services end-to-end.
 Three changes made it work:
 1. **Hook redirect** — FIFA's `connect(127.0.0.1:3216)` is rewritten to `:3217` by our
   hook. The existing in-process offline shim keys on **port 3216 specifically**, so a
   different port slips past it and lands on our host bridge (loopback is shared with
   the Wine/Proton prefix — same netns).
 2. **AES key** = `000102030405060708090a0b0c0d0e0f`. The `[0,1,2,…,15]` sequence that
   looked like a placeholder is the actual session key; confirmed by round-tripping
   against a captured live session.
 3. **Session-seed fix** — `compute_seed()` must take the **raw ASCII bytes** of the
   first two chars of our response hex, not parse them as a hex pair.
 Last live run: FIFA held one `ESTAB` connection to the bridge and drove 20 EbisuSDK
 requests with **no crash**.
 ---
 ## Current deployment state (IMPORTANT)
 - **The redirect hook is currently deployed** as `/mnt/games/FIFA 23/version.dll`
  (md5 `dab3952809c24122af228a3201b9357b`). While this is in place, FIFA routes LSX to
  our bridge and **requires the bridge running on 3217** or LSX will not complete.
 - **Backup of the previous hook:**
  `/mnt/games/FIFA 23/version.dll.pre-lsx-redirect.bak` (md5 `fb7a5aae…`).
 - **To restore the previous behavior for normal offline play:**
  ```bash
  cp "/mnt/games/FIFA 23/version.dll.pre-lsx-redirect.bak" "/mnt/games/FIFA 23/version.dll"
  ```
 - The bridge process from this session may or may not still be running. Check:
  `pgrep -a openfut-bridge` / `ss -tlnp | grep 3217`.
 ---
 ## Uncommitted changes (nothing is committed)
 ### `openfut-bridge`
 - `src/lsx.rs`:
  - **Seed fix** in `compute_seed()` (the load-bearing change).
  - AES-128 hand-roll replaced with the `aes` crate (+ a FIPS-197 unit test
    `aes128_matches_fips197_and_round_trips`).
  - A debug log line dumping raw session ciphertext (used during verification against
    the capture; harmless to keep, or remove).
 - `Cargo.toml` / `Cargo.lock`: added `aes = "0.8"`.
 - `docs/connection-gate-findings.md`: corrected classification + new "LSX complete"
  section.
 - `docs/HANDOFF-lsx-2026-07-02.md`: this file.
 - `captures/lsx-handshake-capture-2026-07-02.log`: a captured live handshake plus the
  raw session ciphertext, kept as a reference sample for verifying the implementation.
 ### `openfut-launcher/openfut-hook`
 - `src/connect_hook.rs`: added a `PORT_LSX_NBO (3216) → PORT_LSX_TARGET_NBO (3217)` arm
  in `redirect_if_ea`, plus result logging on the redirect path.

 > without checking with the user. Confirm scope before committing anything.
 ---
 ## How to reproduce the working LSX session
 1. **Build the hook** (redirect):
   ```bash
   cd openfut-launcher/openfut-hook
   cargo build --release --target x86_64-pc-windows-gnu
   ```
 2. **Deploy it** (back up first — already backed up once):
   ```bash
   SRC=openfut-launcher/openfut-hook/target/x86_64-pc-windows-gnu/release/openfut_hook.dll
   cp -f "$SRC" "/mnt/games/FIFA 23/version.dll"
   ```
 3. **Build + run the bridge on 3217:**
   ```bash
   cd openfut-bridge && cargo build --release
   LSX_ADDR=127.0.0.1:3217 RUST_LOG=openfut_bridge=debug \
     ./target/release/openfut-bridge > /tmp/bridge-lsx.log 2>&1 &
   ```
 4. **Launch FIFA** (user does this — umu/Steam via
   `/home/alex/Desktop/launch-fifa23-live-editor.sh`).
 5. **Verify:** `ss -tnp | grep 3217` should show `ESTAB FIFA23.exe ↔ openfut-bridge`,
   and `/tmp/bridge-lsx.log` should show multiple `LSX: dispatch …` lines (not one
   garbage message).

 ## Key facts / constants
 | Thing | Value |
 |---|---|
 | EA App LSX port (FIFA connects here) | `127.0.0.1:3216` |
 | Redirect target (our bridge LSX) | `127.0.0.1:3217` (`LSX_ADDR`) |
 | LSX AES-128-ECB key | `000102030405060708090a0b0c0d0e0f` |
 | Our greeting key (challenge plaintext) | `cacf897a20b6d612ad0c05e011df52bb` |
 | Session seed rule | first **two ASCII chars** of our `ChallengeAccepted` response hex, as raw bytes (e.g. `"0f…"` → `0x3066`), NOT the parsed hex pair |
 | Existing shim interception | in-process, keyed on **port 3216**; loopback is shared (FIFA netns == host netns) |
 Small verification helpers (`keyscan.py`, `seedscan.py`) live in the session
 scratchpad — trivial to recreate from `connection-gate-findings.md` if needed.
 ---
 ## Next steps (in priority order)
 1. **Add a `GetGameInfo GameInfoId=…` handler** to the bridge dispatcher (`src/lsx.rs`
   `dispatch()`). It currently falls back to the generic `<Ok/>` ("unknown request
   type"). FIFA tolerated that, but may need real responses to progress. This is the
   immediate iteration surface now that we can see FIFA's real requests.
 2. **Watch how far FIFA advances** with the LSX session satisfied — the next step is
   the Blaze/online layer (the old M2 `ONLINE_STATUS_EVENT` blocker). With LSX now
   handled by our bridge, that picture may change; re-evaluate M2 with FIFA actually
   reaching it.
 3. **Port the seed fix into the hook's own `src/lsx.rs`** if the in-process LSX path is
   ever revived — it has the same `compute_seed` bug.
 4. **Decide on the redirect's permanence** — right now it's a manual DLL swap. If
   LSX-via-bridge becomes the intended path, the launcher's setup/deploy flow should
   own it.
 ## Open question for the user
 We never captured what FIFA showed **on screen** during the successful run (advanced to
 a menu? sat at "connecting"? waited on `GetGameInfo`?). Ask, or observe on the next
 launch — it tells you whether LSX is fully satisfied or whether `GetGameInfo` is the
 next thing to address.

 # Blaze Handshake — Reference & Milestone Map
 This is the reference for the **blaze_brain** arc: emulating the EA Blaze backend
 well enough for FIFA 23 FUT to get past *"FUT is connecting to the EA Servers…"*.
 It replaces the earlier in-process *forcing* arc, which concluded that the game's
 online dispatch scaffold cannot be filled by forcing local state — it fills only when
 a real Blaze exchange happens.
 Every claim below is tagged so that on a re-read you can see instantly what is
 grounded in our own reverse engineering versus what is general public knowledge of
 Blaze's protocol shape versus what still needs a capture:
 - **CONFIRMED** — established by our own RE in this project (live memory reads,
  objdump, hook logs).
 - **SHAPE** — the general shape of EA's Blaze protocol from public community
  knowledge. The *ordering* and *purpose* are reliable; exact numeric IDs and field
  tags for FIFA 23's specific Blaze version are **not** implied by a SHAPE tag.
 - **UNKNOWN** — must be captured from the live client before it can be implemented.
 > Clean-room discipline: nothing here derives from leaked EA source. The Blaze
 > protocol shape is reconstructed from public community reverse-engineering of EA
 > titles and our own observations of this client.
 ---
 ## The three layers that all say "connecting to EA"
 "Connecting to EA" is not one thing. Three distinct systems wear that label, stacked
 on top of each other, and it is easy to confuse a stall in one for a stall in
 another. Understanding which layer the FUT spinner belongs to is the whole point of
 this document.
 **Layer 0 — LSX (Local Socket eXchange).** `CONFIRMED working.` This is the
 Origin/EA-App desktop-client local API: entitlements, the local login handshake, and
 `GetAuthCode`. It is *not* Blaze — it is a localhost protocol the game uses to talk to
 whatever is standing in for the EA App. Our native bridge answers it on ports
 3216/3217, and answering it is what got the client to the main menu with a working
 first-party login. Layer 0's output that matters to Blaze is a **Nucleus auth code /
 access token**: the credential the client will later present to the Blaze
 authentication component.
 **Layer 1 — the Blaze core session.** *This is the wall.* Blaze is EA's online backend
 framework. Reaching it is a multi-step handshake (detailed below) that starts by
 asking a *redirector* where the real server is, connecting there over TLS, then
 negotiating configuration, authenticating with the Layer-0 auth code, and finally
 bringing the session fully online. Until this completes, nothing above it can work.
 Everything we have observed says the client currently never even *starts* this — see
 the transport finding below.
 **Layer 2 — FUT / UTAS.** `SHAPE.` FIFA Ultimate Team specifically is served by the
 EASFC Blaze component *and* by UTAS, a separate HTTPS REST service
 (`utas.*.fut.ea.com`). Once a Blaze session exists, the FUT client authenticates to
 UTAS (`POST /ut/auth`) with the session credential to obtain a FUT session id, and
 only then does it load squad/club data. The FUT spinner in the screenshot lives at the
 *top* of this stack, but it cannot clear until Layer 1 is answered — so "minimal Blaze
 handshake" means **Layer 1**, and Layer 2 is a second, HTTP-shaped project that comes
 after.
 ---
 ## Where the client currently stalls — the transport finding
 `CONFIRMED.` Across a full menu-plus-FUT-attempt session we observed **zero
 `getaddrinfo` calls and zero outbound sockets**, and — via the `ELEM_WATCH` probe — the
 game's per-connection message-handler dispatch container at `element[0]+0x40` stayed a
 clean, empty, default-constructed vector the entire time, including while the FUT
 spinner was on screen. `connectState.ctor` fired (the client builds connect-state
 objects) but registered nothing into that container.
 The mechanical reading: **that container is populated by an actual Blaze message
 exchange** — handlers register as component notifications arrive during session
 bring-up (Layer-1 step 6 below). No Blaze reply → no handler registration → empty
 container → spinner spins forever. The spinner *is* the Layer-1 wall.
 This leaves two possible transport situations, and **Milestone 0 exists solely to
 decide which one we are in** (see the Milestones section):
 - **(a)** the client expects Blaze on a hardcoded local endpoint and would dial it if a
  listener were there, or
 - **(b)** the client only dials the Blaze redirector after an in-process bootstrap (the
  dial handler `0x144f4d360` `CONFIRMED`) fires — in which case the transport wall and
  the bootstrap wall are the same wall.
 ---
 ## Layer 1 — the minimal Blaze handshake ordering
 Blaze is a framed binary protocol. Each message is a header — length, component id,
 command id, message type (request / response / notification / error), error code, and
 a message/sequence id — followed by a **TDF**-encoded body (EA's tag/type/value binary
 serialization). `SHAPE.` The exact numeric component/command ids and TDF field tags for
 FIFA 23's Blaze version are **UNKNOWN** until captured.
 These are the six steps a responder must satisfy, **in order**, to bring a session
 online:
 1. **`Redirector::getServerInstance`** `SHAPE` — the client asks the redirector for the
   address of the real Blaze server, naming the FIFA 23 service/SKU. The responder
   returns a `ServerInstanceInfo` TDF containing a **host:port** (point it at
   ourselves) plus an SSL flag. Without a valid address the client has nowhere to go.
 2. **connect + TLS** `CONFIRMED (bypass)` — the client opens a TLS connection to the
   returned address. Our ProtoSSL/cert-verify bypass is already in place, so our
   listener can terminate TLS.
 3. **`Util::preAuth`** `SHAPE` — the client sends its config/version/locale; the
   responder returns server config: the **component list**, ping-site list, telemetry
   settings (disable), and a misc config bundle. The client uses the component list to
   know what exists; an empty or malformed response here stalls it.
 4. **`Authentication::login`** `CONFIRMED (GetAuthCode feeds here)` + `SHAPE` — the
   client authenticates, presenting the **Nucleus auth code from Layer 0** (SSO). The
   responder returns the session: **BlazeId, session key, persona, entitlements**. A
   failure here is what surfaces as *"EA Servers are down."*
 5. **`Util::postAuth`** `SHAPE` — after auth, the client finalizes the session; the
   responder returns post-auth config (UserManager, association lists, telemetry,
   ticker/PIN).
 6. **`UserSessions::updateNetworkInfo` / `updateHardwareFlags`, then a
   `UserSessionExtendedDataUpdate` notification** `CONFIRMED (container is
   Blaze-downstream)` + `SHAPE (which command)` — the client publishes its network/
   hardware info and the server pushes extended session data. **The client flips to
   "online" on receipt of the extended-data notification** — and this is the exact
   moment the `element[0]+0x40` container we watched would begin filling, as handlers
   register for the arriving component notifications.
 At step 6 the top-level "connected to EA" clears, and Layer 2 (UTAS) can begin.
 ### Why step 6 is the Milestone-1 success signal
 The container-fill and the "online" flip are the *same event*: handlers register
 because Blaze notifications arrived. That gives blaze_brain a precise, already-built
 success detector. The first real win is **not** "full FUT works" — it is a single line
 in the hook log:
 ```
 ELEM_WATCH: [elem+0x40] CHANGED! …
 ```
 That line means the client accepted our Blaze replies and started registering
 handlers — i.e. steps 1–6 were convincing enough to bring the session online. The
 `ELEM_WATCH` probe that emits it is already written and deployed; it is our
 instrumentation for blaze_brain regardless of anything else.
 ---
 ## Milestones
 - **M0 — transport reachability (this task).** Read-only. Confirm whether the client
  attempts *any* Blaze-flavored transport (situation a) or none at all (situation b).
  Gates every decision below. See the M0 section in the hook docs / launch notes.
 - **M1 — minimal session bring-up.** Stand up a listener at the M0-observed endpoint;
  answer `getServerInstance` (redirect to ourselves), then `preAuth` / `login` /
  `postAuth` with minimal valid TDFs and a single hardcoded persona. **Success signal:
  `ELEM_WATCH: CHANGED` fires and the spinner advances.**
 - **M2 — session online.** Handle the step-6 session notifications until the top-level
  "connected to EA" state is reached and stays.
 - **M3 — FUT / UTAS.** Implement the UTAS REST layer (`POST /ut/auth` and the
  `/ut/game/...` endpoints already sketched in `endpoint-map.md`) so FUT itself loads.
 M1 is only reachable if M0 says the client actually dials a listener. If M0 comes back
 "no traffic" (situation b), M1 in its "answer over a wire" shape is blocked until the
 dial trigger is solved, and the strategic options are re-opened rather than a next task
 being obvious.
 ---
 ## Honest UNKNOWNs (capture before implementing)
 - **Numeric component and command ids** for FIFA 23's Blaze version. The *names* and
  *ordering* above are `SHAPE`-reliable; the wire ids are `UNKNOWN`.
 - **TDF field tags and body layouts** for each request/response. `UNKNOWN` — every
  response body must be shaped from a real capture (or careful trial against the
  client's parser).
 - **The redirector/Blaze transport itself** — host, port, and whether it is remote,
  loopback, or a pipe. This is exactly M0's question and is `UNKNOWN` until M0 runs.
 - **Whether the client dials at all** without the in-process bootstrap firing — the
  situation (a) vs (b) question. `UNKNOWN` until M0.
 Until M0 answers the transport question, the ordering above is designable but
 untestable: there is nothing to answer *to*.

 # OpenFUT — Closure & Preservation Record
 *A clean-room reverse-engineering effort to restore FIFA 23 Ultimate Team offline after
 EA's server shutdown (October 2025). This document records what was built, what was
 achieved, and the precise technical wall at which the effort concludes.*
 **Status: the online/FUT route is closed at a characterized wall. The offline-menu /
 EA-App-emulation layer works and is preserved.**
 **Provenance:** everything here derives from observing the running client's own behaviour —
 live memory reads, static disassembly of the shipped binary, and the game's responses to
 our synthesized inputs. No leaked EA source was used or referenced at any point. That
 clean-room discipline is the legal foundation of the work and is the reason this record can
 exist.
 ---
 ## 1. What OpenFUT set out to do
 FIFA 23's online services were permanently shut down in October 2025, which removed FIFA
 Ultimate Team — the mode is backed by EA's online infrastructure and simply cannot start
 without it. OpenFUT's goal was game preservation: let a legitimately-owned copy run FUT
 against a **local, emulated backend** instead of EA's dead servers.
 The intended shape was three cooperating pieces:
 ```
 FIFA 23 client (offline, under Proton/Wine or native Windows)
      │  EA-App / Blaze / FUT protocols
 openfut_hook.dll   — injected; redirects EA traffic, bypasses cert pinning, observes
      │  localhost
 openfut-bridge     — answers the EA-App (LSX) protocol; was to answer Blaze + FUT
      │
 openfut-core       — the game-independent FUT economy backend (cards, packs, SBCs…)
 ```
 The entry sequence the client runs, in order, each gating the next:
 1. **LSX** — the EA App ↔ game local handshake (login, entitlements, config).
 2. **Blaze redirector** — "where is my game server?"
 3. **Blaze preauth / login / postauth** — establish the online session.
 4. **FUT entry** — eligibility, then the FUT hub loads over REST.
 The plan was to walk these gates one at a time, synthesizing each response and verifying it
 against the live client (the client is the oracle — a gate is "done" when the game advances).
 ---
 ## 2. What was achieved
 This is preservation documentation, so the wins are recorded first and plainly. They are
 real, and they stand independent of the wall reached later.
 ### 2.1 Clean-room injection and TLS neutralization
 - A `version.dll` / FLE-loaded hook that injects into FIFA 23 under Proton/Wine without
  tripping the (neutralized) anti-cheat, writing a durable log for observation.
 - ProtoSSL / cert-verify bypass sufficient to let the game accept our substituted
  endpoints at the layers we terminate.
 - Winsock interception (`getaddrinfo`, `connect`, `WSAConnect`, `ConnectEx`) with EA-host
  and EA-port redirection to the local bridge — including, by the end, **IPv6 (IPv4-mapped)
  redirection**, which closed a real leak the earlier IPv4-only path had missed.
 ### 2.2 The LSX / EA-App layer works — the game reaches a fully-authenticated menu offline
 This is the substantive achievement. The bridge's native LSX server (port 3217) emulates
 the EA App / EbisuSDK local protocol completely enough that FIFA 23, with EA's servers gone,
 **boots to its main menu believing it is logged in and online.** Confirmed working, from the
 bridge's own logs of a live session:
 - `EALS ChallengeResponse` — the EA login-service challenge/response handshake completes
  (`handshake complete`).
 - `EbisuSDK GetConfig / GetProfile / GetGameInfo / GetSetting` — all answered; the game gets
  its service list, profile, and configuration.
 - `Utility GetInternetConnectedState → connected=1` — the connectivity check passes.
 - `XMPP SetPresence → INGAME` — presence is set.
 - `Login IsLoggedIn=true` and `OnlineStatusEvent isOnline=true` — pushed continuously; the
  game's own online-status state flips to "online."
 Everything the EA-App layer is asked for, it receives. This is a genuine, reusable
 clean-room EA-App/EbisuSDK emulator.
 ### 2.3 Reverse-engineering infrastructure
 The effort produced durable tooling and knowledge, all clean-room:
 - Live memory inspection via `/proc/<pid>/mem` (Wine maps `FIFA23.exe` flat at ImageBase
  `0x140000000`), including a stable algorithm to resolve the live Blaze connection manager
  (`G = *[0x14acd02c0]` → `M = *[G+0x360]` → `ctx = *[M+0x778]`; then a heap scan for the
  object `P` with `[P+0] == base+0x80200b8` and `[P+8] == M`).
 - Read-only in-process probes (menu-time snapshots, a write-watchpoint on the dispatch
  container, transport observation) — all env-gated, none altering game state.
 - Handshake-independent TLS **SNI capture** on the bridge (peek the ClientHello, parse SNI
  before the handshake, so the hostname is learned even when the client rejects our cert).
 - A documented **Blaze handshake reference** (`docs/blaze-handshake.md`) mapping the
  three-layer LSX / Blaze-core / UTAS model and the six-step Blaze session ordering.
 ---
 ## 3. The wall — reached from three independent directions
 FUT never loaded. The reason is a single wall, and the strongest evidence for it is that
 three unrelated lines of investigation arrived at the same place.
 ### 3.1 The forcing arc (memory side)
 We confirmed the live Blaze connection manager and the in-process "dial" handler
 (`0x144f4d360`) that begins the Blaze connection when the network comes online. Both exist at
 the menu. But:
 - **Forcing the dial with the connection scaffold empty crashes** in normal `.text` (not the
  VM) at `0x144fd6b6c`: a binary search over a per-connection message-handler table whose
  `begin` pointer is an uninitialized sentinel (`1`). The table is empty because nothing has
  populated it.
 - **Forcing the online state machine to "fully online" (state 2) crashes the anti-tamper
  VM** deterministically — the game's own protected online code runs against a forced-but-
  absent session and faults. A forced state cannot substitute for a real session.
 Conclusion of the arc: the dial and the online state are *primed but unpumped* — real
 infrastructure that only a genuine connection flow drives, and that cannot be safely forced.
 ### 3.2 The network / transport arc
 With the entire EA-App layer satisfied (§2.2) and the network path fully instrumented
 (including IPv6 and SNI capture), we watched a complete FUT "connecting to EA Servers"
 attempt. The complete outbound inventory:
 | Traffic | Identity | Fate |
 |---|---|---|
 | 2× IPv6 `:443` → `rl.data.ea.com`, `pin-river.data.ea.com` | EA **PIN/River telemetry** (fire-and-forget) | reached the bridge, **cert-rejected by ProtoSSL** |
 | 6× IPv6 UPnP (`:1900`, `:80`, LAN) | NAT traversal | — |
 | LSX (`:3217`) | EA-App layer | fully answered |
 **No `gosredirector` / `redirector.ea.com`. No Blaze-port (`:42127` / `:10041`) connect. On
 any transport.** Starting FUT added *zero* new dials. The game is satisfied enough by the
 EA-App layer that it never attempts a Blaze connection at all. (This also corrected an
 earlier false belief — "zero outbound sockets" — which turned out to be undecoded IPv6
 traffic.)
 Conclusion of the arc: the wall is **not** transport, **not** an unanswered LSX request,
 **not** the cert. The game simply never initiates Blaze.
 ### 3.3 The two arcs meet
 The forcing arc found, from memory, that the connection scaffold is never populated. The
 network arc found, from the wire, that no connection is ever attempted. Same wall, two sides.
 The final chapter explains *why*, from the binary itself.
 ---
 ## 4. Final chapter — the dial-initiation gate (why it is circular)
 This is the concluding technical result: a static reverse-engineering pass answering the one
 question both arcs left open — *beyond "online," what does the code check before it fires the
 Blaze dial, and is that condition reachable offline?*
 ### 4.1 Method
 Read-only static analysis of the shipped `FIFA23.exe` (`objdump`), two cross-reference
 techniques: an 8-byte absolute-address search across the whole file (finds function pointers
 stored in data — vtables, tables) and a disassembly grep for `call`/`jmp`/`lea` targets
 (finds code references; a `lea reg,[…] # 0x…` is an address being *taken* for registration, a
 `call 0x…` is a direct invocation). Addresses below are `FIFA23.exe` virtual addresses
 (ImageBase `0x140000000`). The anti-tamper VM region `[0x14c1cd000, 0x160eb1000)` is
 unreadable; everything traced here is in normal `.text`.
 ### 4.2 The caller graph
 ```
 dial handler  0x144f4d360
   ▲  address-taken only (lea r9,[dial]) — NEVER called directly, NEVER in a vtable
   │  inserted into the container [connMgr+0xc38] by:
 F1 registrar  0x144f4b7b0          (exactly ONE caller)
   ▲
 F2            0x144f4b960          (builds a callback, calls F1 with rcx = connMgr)
   ▲  TWO callers, identical guard:  cmp bpl,[this+0x42] ; cmp bp,[this+0x142]
   ├── F3a   0x144f44770
   └── F3b   0x144f4bbf0
 ```
 Every reference is a normal-`.text` `lea` — the dial handler is *registered as a callback*,
 never called by address. The registrar `F1` is a "get-or-create into the message-handler
 container": on a miss it allocates a handler and copies a caller-supplied callback into it.
 Its sole caller `F2` supplies the callback and resolves the connection manager
 (`rcx = [[this+8]+0xca0]`).
 ### 4.3 The decisive structural fact
 `F3a` and `F3b` — the two functions that actually decide to register the dial — are, from the
 whole-binary sweep, **in zero vtables and never directly called.** They are `lea`'d at four
 sites and **registered into `[connMgr+0xc38]`, each keyed by a `.rdata` message-type
 descriptor** (`0x1483fcf98`, `0x14808d7d0`). In other words they are themselves **message
 handlers**, dispatched indirectly by the connection manager when a matching Blaze message
 arrives — not methods invoked by a state machine you can drive locally. (In Rust terms: not
 methods on a trait object, but closures inserted into a `HashMap<MessageType, Handler>` and
 called by a dispatcher.) The functions that register *them* (`G_a 0x144f4a350`,
 `G_b 0x144f45220`) are ordinary helpers inside the same cluster, and the entire cluster
 `F1…G_b` is vtable-free.
 So the whole thing is one **self-registering, message-driven state machine on
 `[connMgr+0xc38]`:** each handler fires when its Blaze message arrives, checks connection
 state, and registers the next handler — until `F3a`/`F3b` register the dial. The state each
 step checks (`[this+0x42]`, `[this+0x142]`, …) is connection-lifecycle state, advanced only
 as messages are processed.
 ### 4.4 Reachability, and why it is circular
 Offline, the container `[connMgr+0xc38]` is **empty** (measured directly: the crashing table's
 `begin` is `0`/garbage; the network arc saw zero Blaze messages). Nothing ever dispatches
 `F3a`/`F3b`, so their guards never even execute — the wall sits *upstream* of them. The one
 thing that does fire offline is the connection-state constructor (on the online-status event),
 so the machine's entrance is *partially* reached and then stalls immediately, because no
 Blaze message follows to drive the first dispatch.
 **Outcome: circular gate.** The trigger is *found* — we can see precisely how the dial gets
 registered and fired. But its precondition is *prior Blaze connection-lifecycle messages
 having populated and dispatched the handler container* — i.e. the very network exchange the
 connection is meant to produce. The state that gates the dial requires the dial's own earlier
 connection steps to have already run. It is not a settable flag (there is none between
 "online" and "dial"); it is an entire message exchange that never begins.
 This is the exact mechanical explanation of both arcs: the container is empty because no
 messages flow (network arc), and forcing the dial into that empty container crashes (memory
 arc).
 ---
 ## 5. What this means — the boundary, stated plainly
 **OpenFUT can take FIFA 23 to a fully-authenticated main menu, offline, believing it is
 logged in and online — but it cannot take it into FUT.** FUT requires a Blaze session, and on
 this build the Blaze connection is never initiated. The bootstrap is circular: the client
 will only walk its connection state machine as real Blaze messages arrive, and no messages
 arrive because no connection is begun. "Online," at the EA-App level, is genuinely
 disconnected from "reach out to Blaze," and the gap between them is not a flag we failed to
 set — it is a live protocol exchange that has no counterpart to talk to.
 Two secondary walls sit behind the first, and would matter only if it were solved:
 - **ProtoSSL cert pinning** (`CertificateUnknown`) rejects our self-signed cert on the
  DirtySDK path — so even redirected EA HTTPS cannot complete a handshake as-is.
 - **The anti-tamper VM** faults deterministically whenever forced state is used by the game's
  own protected online code — so "force the state and let the game run" is not viable.
 ---
 ## 6. Paths not taken, scoped honestly
 Only one route could still reach FUT, and this record scopes it so the decision is clear-eyed
 rather than reopened casually.
 **In-process Blaze state-machine injection.** Rather than answer Blaze over a wire (there is
 no wire — the game never dials), blaze_brain would **drive the game's in-process connection
 state machine by injecting synthesized Blaze response frames into its dispatch layer.** From
 the final-chapter RE, that requires:
 1. Making the connection appear *initiated*, so the game registers its first response handler.
 2. Feeding synthesized Blaze responses **in order and keyed to the same `.rdata` message-type
   descriptors**, so each registered handler fires, advances the connection-state flags, and
   registers its successor — walking the machine forward until the dial is registered and
   fires.
 This is a weeks-scale build requiring per-message protocol RE done from the *receive* side,
 against a client that is the only available oracle (the servers are dead, so every frame must
 be synthesized and validated by whether the client advances). It also inherits an unsolved
 sub-problem: the initial "connection initiated" state must itself be synthesized or forced,
 since the game does not produce it offline. It is possible in principle; it is not a small
 task, and its scope should be understood before it is begun.
 The alternative — the one this document records — is to treat the fully-authenticated offline
 menu as the achieved preservation state and close the online/FUT route here.
 ---
 ## 7. Preservation value
 Even without FUT, the effort produced things worth keeping:
 - **A working clean-room EA-App / EbisuSDK (LSX) emulator** that boots FIFA 23 to an
  authenticated main menu with no live EA servers — a genuine preservation artifact for the
  offline single-player state.
 - **A documented map of exactly where and why online play is unreachable** on this build,
  grounded in the binary: the dial caller graph, the message-driven container mechanism, and
  the circular bootstrap. Future work (on this title or the engine family) starts from a
  known wall, not a blank page.
 - **Reusable RE tooling and references** — live-memory resolution of the connection manager,
  the transport/SNI instrumentation, and the Blaze handshake reference doc.
 - **A clean provenance record** — nothing derived from leaked source, so the work remains
  usable and shareable.
 ---
 ## 8. Closing note
 OpenFUT reached the last gate it could reach without a live server to talk to, and then
 proved — from memory, from the wire, and from the binary — that the next gate is not a lock
 we failed to pick but a door that only opens from the far side. That is a complete and honest
 result. The offline menu stands; the map is drawn; the wall is named.

funman300	e4108fcff8	feat(xref): objdump-based string-literal cross-reference tool New CLI (openfut-bridge-xref) that finds every code site referencing chosen .rdata string literals and prints the guarding-branch context. Shells out to system objdump only (no disassembler crate) and exploits objdump's resolved '# <hex>' RIP-relative target comments. Phases: discovery (ImageBase + section table via -p/-h), harvest (-s -j .rdata → NUL-terminated ASCII matching anchors, with VAs), streaming xref (-d, ring-buffer context, int3-boundary function synthesis for this stripped PE), grouped report flagging control-flow lines. Self-test (anchor nucleusConnectREST) PASSES: harvests VA 0x1480db550 and finds the load site 0x142861942 in fn 0x142861910 (which calls the map-lookup at 0x145057670). First payoff: gosredirector hostnames have ZERO code refs — they sit in a 4-entry env→URL data table at 0x1483fc858, so env selection is table-indexed, not a direct code lea.

funman300	8f5b6b1d59	docs: correction — empty endpoint map is partly downstream of never-connecting GetSetting only carries IGO/ENVIRONMENT (not endpoints); no HTTP config fetch. The endpoint map is filled from the online connection/login response in a live client, so its emptiness is downstream of 'never dialed redirector', not root. Integrated picture: frontend shows 'connecting' but the online subsystem never initiates any network connection; the upstream 'start connection' trigger never fires = the M2 frontier. Forcing corrected nucleusConnectREST's role (config lookup, not sender) but found no callable shortcut. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-02 18:44:20 -07:00
funman300	105cca1cbe	docs: forcing reframes gate — endpoint config map [ctx+0x19c8] is EMPTY Forced nucleusConnectREST() via hook (safe, FIFA survived). It returned 0 and sent nothing because it is actually an ENDPOINT-URL LOOKUP: ctx->vt[0x40] (+0x5057670) looks up key 'nucleusConnectREST' in the config map [ctx+0x19c8], which live memory confirms is EMPTY (buckets null, count 0). FIFA resolves zero hostnames and never fetches config — its only channel is LSX. So the root gate is that the online endpoint config was never loaded; the subsystem is dormant because it has no server URLs. Next: find the map populator + its LSX channel.

funman300	404064f0bb	docs: mapping synthesis — online-activation gate + tooling limit Full gate map: LSX bootstrap DONE; EbisuSDK online report DONE at SDK level (events parse, listener no-op); EASFC subsystem DORMANT (built at boot, never activated); GetAuthCode/Blaze never reached. The missing link is runtime 'go online' activation between the SDK online-report and the EASFC subsystem. No single activation flag isolable via byte-scan — the subsystem is pervasive (GetConnState has 61 callers), consistent with online-mode being a whole subsystem activation, not a switch. Next tool: Ghidra/IDA or continued dynamic probing. Confirms the M2 frontier with pre-Blaze infra present. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-02 18:21:49 -07:00
funman300	6bd1241bdf	docs: run 4 — EASFC connect subsystem is created-but-dormant Probe shows connect states are constructed at boot (ctor x4) but never touched (GetConnState=0, no vtable method fires).

Confirms we're at the M2/Blaze boundary with pre-Blaze infra present. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-02 18:03:50 -07:00
funman300	ba7bb4f4be	docs: probe overturns dig-2 hypothesis — connect flow never triggered (ctx non-null) Live probe result: the Nucleus session context [M+0x778] is non-null (0xba8315a0), but nucleusConnectREST/Trusted and the connect-state tick are NEVER called. FIFA completes LSX bootstrap, parks at 'connecting', and never starts the EASFC online connect. So the gate is an upstream trigger, not the null-check the static analysis suggested. Also documents the FLE hook-injection path (deploys must target the FLE dir). Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-02 17:55:42 -07:00
funman300	c8f6adfb70	docs: pin online gate to the Nucleus session context [mgr+0x778] Dig 2: traced the GetAuthCode send path up to FIFA's game-side nucleusConnectREST (+0x2861910) / nucleusConnectTrusted (+0x5078370). Both null-check the same Nucleus session context [NucleusManager+0x778] and short-circuit when null (REST returns 0/sends nothing; Trusted returns HRESULT 0x80060000 not-ready). So the online->auth gate is that +0x778 is never instantiated -- consistent with the no-op-listener finding (event updates stored state but doesn't drive the login state machine to create the context). Next: a targeted dynamic probe on REST + the +0x778 read. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-02 17:34:44 -07:00
funman300	24c1925b5f	docs: recover GetAuthCode request format; localize gate to EASFC job-enqueue poll Traced the far end of the online gate: FIFA's GetAuthCodeT::Serialize (+0x278d2c0) yields the exact LSX request it would send to start the Nucleus->Blaze chain -- <GetAuthCode UserId ClientId Scope AppendAuthSource/>. It is wrapped by a GetAuthCodeJob in the EASFC online-job module. The wall is not the LSX wire or event delivery (events parse fine) but that FIFA's EASFC controller never enqueues the job -- it polls cached online state and our single isOnline flag doesn't satisfy the combined condition. Closes the is-it-the-events question (no); next artifact is the controller poll guard. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-02 17:25:41 -07:00
funman300	feb03fec78	LSX: push OnlineStatusEvent + Login to drive FIFA online (M2 probe) Add an unsolicited event-push path to the LSX server: after the session establishes, re-push (every 2s) a Login then OnlineStatusEvent, encrypted with the live session seed and null-terminated like any session frame. Formats RE'd from FIFA23.exe's OriginSDK deserializers (authoritative): <Login UserIndex="0" IsLoggedIn="true" LoginReasonCode="0"/> (LoginT, +0x287a30) <OnlineStatusEvent isOnline="true"/> (OnlineStatusEventT, +0x28a4d0) Value encoding is the true/false string literal (FIFA's bool parser at FIFA23.exe+0x28fb50 compares to "false"); isOnline="1" is parsed as not-online. Result (verified with in-process probes): FIFA parses both events every cycle and returns success, and stops its impatient GetProfile polling / sets INGAME presence — the first time FIFA has been driven "online" at the EbisuSDK level (anadius, being offline DRM, never does this). But FIFA does not proceed to the GetAuthCode→Nucleus →Blaze chain; the gate is its game-side event consumer (virtual dispatch at FIFA23.exe+0x274d4e2), not delivery.

funman300	0138a39f3e	LSX gate: FIFA reaches "connecting to EA Servers" via bridge Implement the LSX (EA App bootstrap, TCP :3216→:3217) server in the bridge and clear the loading-screen crash gate. FIFA 23 now completes the full LSX handshake + session against OpenFUT and advances to the online/Blaze phase ("<persona> is connecting to the EA Servers…") — verified live, not a cached session (the displayed persona "fun" comes from our GetProfile). Root cause of the invariant loading-screen crash: get_config() omitted the PROGRESSIVE_INSTALLATION and PROGRESSIVE_INSTALLATION_EVENT services (Name="PI"). FIFA builds its service registry from GetConfig and resolves that handle during online-init; the missing service left a null handle it dereferenced at FIFA23.exe+0x133dfc5 (mov rax,[r13+0x18], r13=NULL) ~2s after LSX — identical across every prior run. Found via FIFA's own CrashReport_*.json (stable RIP) + diffing anadius64.dll's service-registration table against ours. Also in this change: - process_frame(): handle FIFA's pipelined (batched) LSX messages per read, eliminating the ~15s handshake hang. - Real anadius values (RE'd from anadius64.dll + anadius.cfg): PersonaId/UserId/ persona, locale list, GetGameInfo fixed `GameInfo="<value>"` attribute, GetAllGameInfo 14-attr schema, GetSetting `Setting=` attribute. - IsProgressiveInstallationAvailable served from sender="PI". - docs/connection-gate-findings.md: full RE trail; relocate stale openfut-hook copy under docs/ (canonical hook lives in openfut-launcher). Next gate: Blaze/online (M2), ridden over ProtoSSL in-process. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-07-02 15:37:33 -07:00
funman300	c58e7326a1	Path A: add jmpscan; document FIFA-side flow blocked with live toolkit protossl-scan: add `jmpscan` (find function-entry E9 detours leaving a module). Used to try to locate EbisuSDK::GoOnline in FIFA23.exe, but the 505MB image is mostly embedded data => ~3875 false positives, no clean detour cluster. Combined with the no-string and worker-thread blocks, the FIFA-side online-flow is not cleanly reachable with the live-memory toolkit. Documented the verdict in connection-gate-findings.md: playable FUT is research-grade (needs interactive IDA/Ghidra GUI + full EA-online/Blaze emulator); the clean-room spec is the finished deliverable.

funman300	e2c6ae8e5b	M2: flips fire but gate is async event (not a poll) - Hook: force GetInternetConnectedState->connected (flags +0xCAB1A/+0xCAB1B) and flip GoOnline to report "1" (+0xAF530) instead of "0" (+0xADE64). - protossl-scan: add `read` mode (hex/ascii dump at addr\|module+off). - Finding: neither flip unblocks the game; it keeps retrying GoOnline every ~7s. The FUT-online flow is event-driven -- the game waits for an async "online established" event anadius (offline-only) never pushes. Documented in connection-gate-findings.md.
