Patch aarch64 widevine blobs from ChromeOS to work on non-ChromeOS linux, including platforms with 16K page size like Apple Silicon / Asahi Linux

aarch64 widevine builds currently only support 4k page sizes.
This script fixes that, by pre-padding the LOAD segments so that they meet
the alignment constraints required by the loader, and then fixing up the
relevant header offsets to keep the file valid.
It also injects two functions that are not exported from arch's libgcc, into
the empty space at the end of the .text segment. This avoids any LD_PRELOAD
workarounds. (The injected functions are __aarch64_ldadd4_acq_rel
and __aarch64_swp4_acq_rel)
This script is tested against aarch64 libwidevinecdm.so version 4.10.2557.0, with
BuildID b71fd3342a03fdb140e1f7a757960df219d63625 and sha256sum
42ddbedb40f079a1dd63147456c12eb1ee0e986a0cd1a8b26e57ad9d119adbb4
You can conveniently obtain it, and all dependencies, by installing
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/widevine-aarch64
This process is fragile, and may not work as-is on future revisions of widevine.
IMPORTANT NOTE: On systems with >4k page size (e.g. Apple Silicon devices),
Using the patched binary *significantly* weakens the security of your web browser,
in two ways. Firstly, it disables the RELRO security mitigation, and secondly it
creates a RWX mapping.
I'm looking into ways around this, but it will require more advanced patching.
P.S. If you want to watch Netflix, you will need to spoof a ChromeOS useragent

@Niek Can you share the full command you ran to get that output, along with ensuring LD_DEBUG=all is set prior to the load?

^ this

Also, can you try outside of a docker container? It's possible that the DRM is detecting it and refusing to operate.

Also note that it will refuse to operate while being strace'd! (but the library should at least get loaded)

And what happens if you try to LD_PRELOAD it somewhere outside of docker?

And, what does the backtrace look like if you run it under GDB? (protip: use this gdb command set env LD_PRELOAD=blah)

Edit: are you using glibc-widevine?

With GDB I get this:

$ gdb ls
(gdb) set env LD_PRELOAD=./libwidevinecdm.so
(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/bin/ls 
warning: Error disabling address space randomization: Operation not permitted
During startup program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

After adding --privileged to the container run flags, the warning goes away but I'm not able to get any more info.

  1. What happens when you try it outside of docker?
  2. What does the backtrace look like? (ideally with glibc symbols loaded)
  3. Are you using glibc-widevine?

Niek commented Mar 16, 2023

Sorry for the confusion, I'm running this on a macOS host in Docker. So I can't really "try it outside of Docker". I have tried backtracing in gdb (with debuginfod and set debuginfod enabled on) but I simply got this:

(gdb) bt
No stack.

I have now tried by installing glibc-widevine and that worked fine! I thought the library patch made the glibc patches obsolete, but I might have misunderstood that. Hopefully the glibc patches are soon no longer needed, because that's a beast to (re)build 😄

Thanks for your support!

Greetings,
Fellow Asahi Linux user here. I had installed the widevine-aarch64 AUR package and I'm elated to report that the spotify web player is working fine! However, being the bearer of bad news, I had modified the useragent in Firefox to the one you had prescribed and yet Netflix refuses to stream content. Is there anyway we can figure out what is going wrong?

@DavidBuchanan314

I haven't actually tested Netflix on Firefox, so my first suggestion would be to try on Chromium (with the same spoofed UA)

@punidramesh
Copy link

Yep, tried it on Chromium as well. I gives me a C7701-1003 error code and asks me to enable 'Sites can play protected content' on chrome://settings/content/protectedContent. Pretty sure its a widevine issue.

Works on my machine 🤷‍♂️

There seems to be a problem when running the script with the version 4.10.2257.0 of widevine.

$ python widevine_fixup.py libwidevinecdm.so new.so

It looks like you're running Asahi, or some other device with >4k page size.
We will need to weaken certain memory permissions accordingly.

Even without the patch, Spotify and Disney+ still works; I guess Ratatouille would do

After installing widevine-aarch64, I went to /opt/WidevineCdm and tried to run the patch on the one in the chromium and firefox folders respectively. They all spitted out the same error except for the one in _platform_specific , where it had this error instead:

I don't know if version 4.10.2257.0 is really the version of the widevine; I just saw the number in the path to firefox's widevine /opt/WidevineCdm/firefox/gmp-widevinecdm/4.10.2257.0/libwidevinecdm.so
I checked the manifest.json in /opt/WidevineCdm and it said 4.10.2557.0 btw

If you installed the widevine-aarch64 AUR package, then it already applied the patch for you, and there is no need to apply it again.

Oh okay, netflix not working may be another issue then.

@DavidBuchanan314

If netflix isn't working, that's likely an "incorrect" user-agent value - you want to be using one that looks like aarch64 chromeos

@CharlesYiu
Copy link

I spoofed the useragent from your blog

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; CrOS aarch64 15236.80.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/109.0.5414.125 Safari/537.36

It definitely looks like aarch64 chromeos but netflix still shows f7111-1331 when watching a movie.

My blog was published months ago, I'd recommend finding something more up-to-date, e.g. https://www.whatismybrowser.com/guides/the-latest-user-agent/chrome-os
