ZTE ZXSLC SR1010: analysing configuration and NAND firmware
An investigation of the ZTE ZXSLC SR1010 maps its NAND partitions, encrypted rootfs, boot and upgrade paths, and config.bin format. Python tools inspect, decrypt, edit and repack owner-supplied configurations and extract firmware components.
