MiniFS is a file system found in certain firmware files from TP-Link
(including its Mercusys brand) and Mercury. Such firmware contains an RTOS
kernel, e.g. VxWorks in
RE450(V4)_210531.zip
(archived)
or TPOS, TP-Link's RTOS, in
TL-WA850RE(EU)_V7.0_250808.zip
(archived).
According to a TP-Link manager quoted in a
2021 article
(archived),
Mercusys has been sold in China as Mercury since 2001. All Mercury images
examined contain a certificate with O=tplink in its issuer and subject.
All versions share the same header, and its version field determines the
layout of the rest of the image.
In version 3, the header is followed by a table of directory paths and file names, followed by meta information for each file, meta information about the LZMA compressed blobs including length, offset and uncompressed length, and then a number of LZMA compressed blobs.
The LZMA blobs can contain the concatenated contents of multiple files. The meta information of a file contains the offsets of its directory path and file name, the LZMA blob (numbering starts at 0), the offset of the file in the uncompressed data and the size of the uncompressed file.
Some version 3 images have no uncompressed length in the meta information
about the blobs (see has_8_byte_lzma_metas in body_v3).
In version 2, the header is followed by the length of the files area and a meta information record for each file, each followed directly by the file's data. Unlike versions 1 and 3, version 2 stores no paths or file names at all, only the MD5 hash of each file's path.
In version 1, the header is followed by a record with the path, the compressed length and the offset of each file, and then one LZMA blob per file.
This Kaitai Struct implementation was written independently of the paper Reverse Engineered MiniFS File System. It was started in the firmware analysis project BANG (Binary Analysis Next Generation) in 2021 and submitted to the Kaitai Struct format gallery in September 2023, whereas the paper was published in July 2024.
This page hosts a formal specification of TP-Link MiniFS using Kaitai Struct. This specification can be automatically translated into a variety of programming languages to get a parsing library.
All Python code generated by Kaitai Struct depends on the Kaitai Struct runtime library for Python. You must add this dependency to your project before you can parse or serialize any data.
The Python runtime library can be installed from PyPI:
python3 -m pip install kaitaistructParse a local file and get structure in memory:
data = TplinkMinifs.from_file("path/to/local/file.bin")
Or parse structure from a bytes:
from kaitaistruct import KaitaiStream, BytesIO
raw = b"\x00\x01\x02..."
data = TplinkMinifs(KaitaiStream(BytesIO(raw)))
After that, one can get various attributes from the structure by invoking getter methods like:
data.header # => get header
# This is a generated file! Please edit source .ksy file and use kaitai-struct-compiler to rebuild
# type: ignore

"""Whether each record in `lzma_metas` lacks `len_blob_uncompressed` and
is therefore 8 bytes in size instead of 12.
The MiniFS header doesn't say which size is used (both use version 3),
so this Kaitai Struct implementation infers it using a heuristic based
on the `.lzma` header of the first blob. Bytes 5 to 12 of that header
are the uncompressed size, which was unknown (all bits set) for all
blobs in all version 3 images examined. So with 8-byte records,
`len_first_blob_uncompressed_if_8_byte_metas` has all bits set. With
12-byte records, the same 8 bytes aren't the uncompressed size. With 3
or more blobs, they include a whole offset or length in `lzma_metas`,
which would have to be 4 GiB. With 1 or 2 blobs, they include the
first blob's dictionary size, which is 8 MiB in all images examined.
An image with 8-byte records and a known uncompressed size would be
rejected, or misparsed if it has a single blob and other data follows it.
In the images examined, 8-byte records occur in firmware files with
modification times from 2018 to 2022 (as stored in their ZIPs), e.g. in
[`MW301R(EU)_V2_180821.zip`](https://static.mercusys.com/software/MW301R(EU)_V2_180821.zip)

([archived](https://web.archive.org/web/20261105142659/https://www.mercusys.com/en/download/mw301r/v2/)).
As far as we know, this implementation is the first description of
8-byte records. The other descriptions and tools found either assume
12 bytes or don't read `lzma_metas` at all. So there is no reference
to compare it with, and the evidence comes from the images. In all 49
distinct images examined with 8-byte records, the bytes at each
record's offset and length are exactly one complete LZMA stream. Each
such stream decompresses to exactly the length that the files packed
into it need. The file that ends last in it ends exactly where the
decompressed data ends. In addition:
* 2614 of the 7230 files in these 49 images have the same path and
contents as a file in an image with 12-byte records. For example,
49 files are the same in the image with 8-byte records in

a 13-byte header followed by the compressed data. Decompress it
with a ready-made LZMA decoder that reads this header, e.g. in
Python with `lzma.decompress(blob, format=lzma.FORMAT_ALONE)`. The
size of the decompressed data is `len_blob_uncompressed`, if present.
In all images examined with `header.version` = 3, the `.lzma` header
specifies the properties lc = 3, lp = 0, pb = 2 and an 8 MiB
dictionary, so it starts with the bytes `5D 00 00 80 00`. The
uncompressed size in the header is unknown (`0xFFFF_FFFF_FFFF_FFFF`),
so the stream ends with an end-of-payload marker.
