从磁条中分析信用卡输入

Question

Does anyone know how to parse a credit card string input from a Magnetic Card Swiper?

I tried a JavaScript parser but never got it to work. This is what the input looks like.

%BNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN^DOE/JOHN
^1210201901000101000100061000000?;NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN=12102019010106111001?

The N's are the credit card number.

Answer 1

See the Magnetic Stripe Card entry @ Wikipedia :

---

Track one, Format B:

• Start sentinel — one character (generally '%')
• Format code="B" — one character (alpha only)
• Primary account number (PAN) — up to 19 characters. Usually, but not always, matches the credit card number printed on the front of the card.
• Field Separator — one character (generally '^')
• Name — two to 26 characters
• Field Separator — one character (generally '^')
• Expiration date — four characters in the form YYMM.
• Service code — three characters
• Discretionary data — may include Pin Verification Key Indicator (PVKI, 1 character), PIN Verification Value (PVV, 4 characters), Card Verification Value or Card Verification Code (CVV or CVK, 3 characters)
• End sentinel — one character (generally '?')
• Longitudinal redundancy check (LRC) — one character (Most reader devices do not return this value when the card is swiped to the presentation layer, and use it only to verify the input internally to the reader.)

---

I hope the data is fake, otherwise Anyone could get the:

• Name
• Expiration Date
• CVV

And I'm not sure but I think the credit card number (or # of possibilities) can be computed using the LRC.

I did you one better: I made a video showing how to do exactly this with ASP.Net/c#:

http://www.markhagan.me/Samples/CreditCardSwipeMagneticStripProcessing

Here is the section of code that you probably care about:

    protected void CardReader_OTC(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        bool CaretPresent = false;
        bool EqualPresent = false;

        CaretPresent = CardReader.Text.Contains("^");
        EqualPresent = CardReader.Text.Contains("=");

        if (CaretPresent)
        {
            string[] CardData = CardReader.Text.Split('^');
            //B1234123412341234^CardUser/John^030510100000019301000000877000000?

            PersonName.Text = FormatName(CardData[1]);
            CardNumber.Text = FormatCardNumber(CardData[0]);
            CardExpiration.Text = CardData[2].Substring(2, 2) + "/" + CardData[2].Substring(0, 2);
        }
        else if (EqualPresent)
        {
            string[] CardData = CardReader.Text.Split('=');
            //1234123412341234=0305101193010877?

            CardNumber.Text = FormatCardNumber(CardData[0]);
            CardExpiration.Text = CardData[1].Substring(2, 2) + "/" + CardData[1].Substring(0, 2);
        }
    }

The complete code is on that website I linked above.

Answer 3

From what I can remember:

That is a two-track magnetic strip data - first track starts with % and ends with ? , the second track starts with ; and ends with ? . These are Start/End markers.

The first track is alphanumeric, the second track is numeric, and there is a third track which is numeric also (if my memory serves correct).

The data between the start/end markers can be variable depending on the recording density of the magnetic strip. The higher the density, the more it can be recorded on one track.

Using a regex to get at the data may not be a reliable method to pick out the information required.

And not all credit cards have exactly two tracks, some uses three tracks.

Answer 5

here is my code:

1st the listener to get the data.... this data needs validation which i am looking for help on. A good swipe works fine, but a bad swipe will cause an error in the parser.

$('#cc-dialog-form').keypress(function(e) 
{

    var charCode = e.which;
    //ie? evt = e || window.event;
    track_start = '%';
    finished = false;
    timeout = 100;
    track_start_code = track_start.charCodeAt(0);
    //console.log('Track_start_code: ' + track_start_code);

    //console.log('keycode ' + e.keycode);


    //console.log('charcode ' + charCode);
    //console.log('track_start_code ' + track_start_code);
    if (charCode == track_start_code)
    {
        collect_track_data = true;
            $('#offline_cc_entry').hide();
            $('#cc_online').hide();
            $('#Manual_CC_DATA').hide();
            $('#cc_loading_image').show();      

    }
    if (collect_track_data)
    {   
        if (charCode == $.ui.keyCode.ENTER) 
        {
            //all done
            //console.log( card_data);
            collect_track_data = false;
            $('#cc_loading_image').hide();
            $('#Manual_CC_DATA').show();
            //console.log("Track Data: " + card_data);


            process_swipe_cc_payment(card_data);
            card_data = '';

        }
        else
        {
            card_data = card_data + String.fromCharCode(charCode);
            console.log(card_data);
            if (e.preventDefault) e.preventDefault();
            e.returnValue=false;
            return false;
        }
    }
    else
    {
        //i am guessing this will be regular input?
        if (charCode == $.ui.keyCode.ENTER) 
        {
             process_keyed_or_offline_CC_payment();
        }
    }
    //console.log("which: " + e.which);
    //console.log("keyCode: " + e.keyCode);
    //track and collect data here?

});

And here is the parser.... note I put it all in one function so I can destroy all the variables so they are not lingering in a browser.

    parse_data = true;
if (parse_data)
{

var parsed_card_data = {};
parsed_card_data['card_data'] = card_data;
var tracks = card_data.split("?");

//console.log ("tracks");
//console.log (tracks);
parsed_card_data['track1'] = tracks[0];
parsed_card_data['track2'] = tracks[1];
//if there is a third track we might find it under tracks[2]

//splitting the card data OPTION 1

var track1_parsed = tracks[0].split("^");

//console.log (track1_parsed);



//track1 data....
var card_number_track1 = track1_parsed[0].substring(2);


parsed_card_data['card_number_track1'] = card_number_track1;

var details2_1 = tracks[1].split(";");
details2_1 = details2_1[1].split("=");


var exp_date_track_1 = details2_1[1];
exp_date_track_1 = exp_date_track_1.substring(0, exp_date_track_1.length - 1);
exp_date_track_1 = exp_date_track_1.substring(2, 4) + "/" + exp_date_track_1.substring(0,2);
parsed_card_data['exp_track1'] = exp_date_track_1;



//now check if track one matches track 2...

track2_parsed = tracks[1].split("=");


card_number_track_2 = track2_parsed[0].substring(1);



parsed_card_data['card_number_track_2'] = card_number_track_2;
exp_date_track_2 = track2_parsed[1].substring(0,4);
exp_date_track_2 = exp_date_track_2.substring(2, 4) + "/" + exp_date_track_2.substring(0,2);
parsed_card_data['exp_date_track_2'] = exp_date_track_2;


var primary_account_number =  card_number_track1.substring(0,1);


if(card_number_track1 == card_number_track_2 &&  exp_date_track_1 == exp_date_track_2)
{
        //now make a security feature showing the last 4 digits only....
    parsed_card_data['secure_card_number'] = "xxxx " + card_number_track1.substring(card_number_track1.length-4, card_number_track1.length);




    if(card_number_track1.length == 15)

    var names_1 = track1_parsed[1].split("/");

    parsed_card_data['last_name'] = names_1[0].trim();


    //console.log("return Data");

    //zero out the variables...

    //parsed_card_data['track1'] is basically what we want???

    $('#CC_SWIPE_INSTRUCTIONS').hide();
    $('#CC_DATA').hide();

Answer 6

Generally for a card-not present transaction (ie MOTO transactions) you will need cc#, expiry and possibly the CVV (aka CVC2 etc). You can obtain the first 2 from a card-swipe as this in the track data. CVV is printed on the card.

Name on card doesn't matter so much. Unless your acquirer and the cardholder are using address verification, but you can find that between ^^, it may have white space padding which you can remove.

The part you want is track2 NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN=1210 where NNNNN=card number PAN, and 1210 = Expiry date.

Even if track1 is empty (which sometimes it is as it's not used in processing), you will still get the ;?, so you could use the index of the second ; as start of the string and = as the end of the cc# string. With the 4 characters after the = as the expiry.

I would advise getting the card holder to sign something in record of the transaction otherwise they could dispute the card and do a charge-back.

And not all credit cards have exactly two tracks, some uses three tracks.

Only track2 is used for processing and has a standardized format.

Debit cards can't generally be processed (unless they have a visa-debit card or something).

PS you shouldn't store cc data in plain text, so try and keep everything in mem or strong encryption.
