This causes a lot of once-written software to become either unusable or handicapped in many regards. One way to fight this is to learn reverse engineering for sake of digital preservation. In this blog, I take you through a journey of reverse engineering a simple mobile game's protobuf API." +tags: ['tutorial', 'reverse-engineering', 'opensource'] +type: blog +draft: false +--- + +# Why +Why not? Digital preservation is important, even if you don't care for a specific program. +This is also a good way to get started with protocol reverse engineering due to way protobuf +is often left behind in source format within client applications. + +## The target +In this series of blogposts, I will be using a mobile game "Egg, Inc." as the target for +demonstration. It's a simple time killer app that got me through boring long waits when I was still at school. + +I won't bore you with details, but in essence it's an incremental game with partial online features +such as cloud save, co-op contracts and server scheduled boosts. + +## The existing works +In some cases, you will find previous works on the target you pick, in my case, some clever people have created +[scripts to extract .proto file out of app.](https://github.com/DavidArthurCole/EggIncProtoExtractor) +I advise you to check it out if you wish to get a better understanding of how you would go about retrieving the +API spec .proto file for your target. + +Further there are a few dedicated individuals in the game's community who have created numerous tools and historical databases. + +For this blog purposes, we will assume the game server is shut down (as in we cannot query from the live API) and our goal is +to make a semi-functional selfhosted gameserver for our own needs, assuming we are the only one on said server. + +## Getting Started +Thanks to the previously mentioned script, it's easy to get started - find the APK, extract protobuf spec file, convert it with +protoc and we're done there. One small problem - due to cheaters, latest version of the game includes "AuthenticatedMessage" structure, +which contains a salted sha256sum of the payload message. + +At this point, after a bit of internal dilemma, I decided to not further the problem while service is still live for people playing and did the +more morally sound decision of picking a version prior to these integrity checks. We can crack that another day as all the needed information +is retained in the app itself. + +Going forward with this, we are targetting game version 1.12.13 (Build ID 111121). + +With all that out of the way, lets get into actual commands used here: +``` +git clone https://github.com/DavidArthurCole/EggIncProtoExtractor.git +cd EggIncProtoExtractor +./apkextract.sh com.auxbrain.egginc_1.12.13.apk +# We should have a new folder "protos" now with resulting files +cd protos +# There should be a file called ei.proto - that's our protobuf spec file +# At this point, we can use the protoc utility which can convert the specfile +# to interfaces in C++, C#, Java, Kotlin, Objective-C, PHP, Python and Ruby with +# additional plugin support for Dart and Go. +# To make this easier to understand, we will use Python in this demonstration +protoc -I=. --python_out=. ./ei.proto +# Success! We now have a "ei_pb2.py" file which can be directly imported to Python programs +``` + +With the protobuf interface in Python created, we can now proceed with creating the API emulator - but there's a slight problem. +What URL? What endpoints? How do we find this out? Simple answer, disassembling the game. Get your RE tool of choice, I will be +using [Ghidra](https://ghidra-sre.org/) myself. + +(Note: You can also just try to find this out using tools such as WireShark) + +The game contains a linked-library written in C++, which you can find inside the .apk `lib` folder, named as `libegginc.so`. +This is perfect for our use-case, Ghidra is going to slice through this like butter. Import the file to your RE tool of choice +and let it perform some analysis on it, have a cup of tea or coffee as this is going to take a hot minute. + +Once that's done, we are going to start by looking at the defined strings - try our luck there. Search for any debug prints left +behind or maybe some clues. I started by searching for `http`, which lead me to following string `"HTTP REQ: %d"`, seems promising. +When I jumped to it, I saw an exactly adjacent string to it which could give more clues: +``` + s_www.auxbrain.com_00c02b60 XREF[0,1]: FUN_00518ab8:00518b38(R) + 00c02b5e 47 3f 77 ds "G?www.auxbrain.com" + 77 77 2e + 61 75 78 + s_HTTP_REQ:_%d_00c02b71 XREF[1]: makeRequestInternal:0067bbd4(*) + 00c02b71 48 54 54 ds "HTTP REQ: %d" + 50 20 52 + 45 51 3a +``` +Interesting, `www.auxbrain.com`. If we jump to its XREF, we get a garbled function, but what it seems to be doing is setting up +certain global values. + +So we have a potential API endpoint, let's put it to the test. We're not going to recompile anything yet or do any byte-patching, +let's try a quick smoke-test. Ensure your phone is rooted and you have a variant of Xposed Framework installed (I used LSPosed). +We will need to untrip the SSL pinning present in most apps, including this one, I used [io.github.tehcneko.sslunpinning](https://github.com/Xposed-Modules-Repo/io.github.tehcneko.sslunpinning) module. +(Note: I know it is possible to repackage the app to do SSL unpinning in most cases, but in many cases, you won't know if it's worth the effort yet) + +Next, install [AdAway app from F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/packages/org.adaway/) so we can setup a redirection on any network we are on. +Inside AdAway, add a redirection rule for the address we just found and point it to an IP address in your LAN that will run the API server. + +Generate a self-signed certificate authority and a certificate signed by it and run a webserver with both HTTP and HTTPS on the API server machine. +Import the self-signed CA to your phone's truststore. Once all of that is done, run the app for first time. + +``` +192.168.1.212 - - [...] "POST /ei/first_contact HTTP/1.1" 404 0 "-" +``` + +Bingo. We have contact and we have an API endpoint. Searching for "ei/" in the strings reveals a extensive list of API endpoints, we now have something +to go off from. We have everything we need to start creating the server. + +## Implementing the Server - Getting first contact +Next up, we create a new project - as we generated the protobuf definitions for Python, we will proceed accordingly. +If you are following along, get respective packages for your operating system to create python venvs. +As the protobufs are being sent over HTTP, we will be serving our application over flask which is being reverse proxied by nginx. + +``` +# Lets stage the environment +mkdir apiserver +cd apiserver +python -m venv .venv +source .venv/bin/activate +touch app.py +cp ~/EggIncProtoExtractor/protos/ei.proto . + +# Get some dependeices +pip install protobuf +pip install flask +``` + +We now have the project set up for reading protobuf definitions and a framework to listen for HTTP and routes sent to it. +Let's create an actual listener application, open app.py with your favourite IDE or text editor. + +``` +import ei_pb2 as EIProto +from flask import Flask +from flask import request + +@app.route("/ei/", methods=["POST"]) +def ei_routes(subpath): + print("HTTP POST /ei/" + subpath) + print(request.headers) + return "" +``` + +This should get the ball rolling, we will see whatever call comes in and we can see what the payload of each request contains. +At this point you should setup the reverse proxy, override your nginx / directive with: +``` +location / { + proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5000; +} +``` + +Reload your nginx and start the flask application you just created with `flask run`. + +Run the app again and have it phone home and see what it contains. +``` +HTTP POST /ei/first_contact +Host: 127.0.0.1:5000 +Connection: close +Content-Length: 37 +Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded +User-Agent: Dalvik/2.1.0 (Linux; U; Android 13; M2012K11AG Build/TQ3A.230901.001) +Accept-Encoding: gzip +``` + +We can see there's a form payload attached to this request, let's modify our app route a bit: +``` +@app.route("/ei/", methods=["POST"]) +def ei_routes(subpath): + print("HTTP POST /ei/" + subpath) + print(request.form) + return "" +``` + +Now if we run the modified flask application again, we see following output on the first_contact endpoint. +``` +HTTP POST /ei/first_contact +ImmutableMultiDict([('data', 'ChAzNTVlNDZlOTA4OWQxZTRjEAAYAg==')]) +``` + +We have a base64-encoded protobuf binary data - which isn't terribly useful for reading plain-text, since protobuf *is* a binary +format, so we will need to figure out what protobuf message this payload belongs to. + +Remember that ei.proto file alongside the ei_pb2.py we got earlier? Lets go back there and inspect it a bit. +We know we just contacted something called "first_contact", maybe there is something in that file that could help us? + +``` +message EggIncFirstContactRequest { + optional string user_id = 1; + optional uint32 client_version = 2; + optional Platform platform = 3; +} + +message EggIncFirstContactResponse { + optional Backup backup = 1; +} +``` + +Seems like the application is using message names in almost similar fashion to API endpoint names themselves. This will prove +to be useful knowledge. We now know what the payload should be, lets put this to the test. + +Edit your app routine again +``` +# add "import base64" to top of the file +@app.route("/ei/", methods=["POST"]) +def ei_routes(subpath): + print("HTTP POST /ei/" + subpath) + if subpath == "first_contact": + # Create the protobuf object so we can load data from the b64 payload + FirstContact = EIProto.EggIncFirstContactRequest() + FirstContact.ParseFromString(base64.b64decode(form["data"])) + print(FirstContact) + else: + print(request.form) + return "" +``` + +We should now be able to see deserialized output when we run the flask application and the mobile app, let's try it out: + +``` +HTTP POST /ei/first_contact +user_id: "355e46e9089d1e4c" +client_version: 0 +platform: DROID +``` + +Nice! We now know how to identify which protobuf object corresponds to which API endpoint. We can now make an educated guess +on what would come next. + +Seeing how we got `EggIncFirstContactRequest` and saw an adjacent `EggIncFirstContactResponse` message in the proto file, we +can safely assume that this is what the game is expecting from us in return. + +Lets modify the server a bit to account for that. + +``` +@app.route("/ei/", methods=["POST"]) +def ei_routes(subpath): + print("HTTP POST /ei/" + subpath) + if subpath == "first_contact": + # Create the protobuf object so we can load data from the b64 payload + FirstContact = EIProto.EggIncFirstContactRequest() + FirstContact.ParseFromString(base64.b64decode(form["data"])) + print("We got a first contact hello from user " + FirstContact.user_id) + # Lets respond with a FirstContactResponse + FirstContactResp = EIProto.EggIncFirstContactResponse() + # This takes only one optional argument - a Backup object - but we have no account + # system yet, so we will opt out of sending that for now. + # --- + # We send the payload back as a base64 string - the same way we retrieved it. + return base64.b64encode(FirstContactResp.SerializeToString()) + else: + print(request.form) + return "" +``` + +Now when we run the app again, we notice that we no longer get spammed this endpoint, but instead in its place we see a few new friends + +## Implementing the Server - New Friends +Say hello to `/ei/save_backup` and `/ei/get_periodicals`. We can infer from the name, that save_backup would involve a Backup message +and get_periodicals would involve a GetPeriodicalsRequest, both of which are defined fully in the proto spec file. + +Both of these are clogging up the flask application log periodically, we should check out what they are so we can have a sane log again. + +``` +@app.route("/ei/", methods=["POST"]) +def ei_routes(subpath): + print("HTTP POST /ei/" + subpath) + if subpath == "first_contact": + # Create the protobuf object so we can load data from the b64 payload + FirstContact = EIProto.EggIncFirstContactRequest() + FirstContact.ParseFromString(base64.b64decode(form["data"])) + print("We got a first contact hello from user " + FirstContact.user_id) + # Lets respond with a FirstContactResponse + FirstContactResp = EIProto.EggIncFirstContactResponse() + # This takes only one optional argument - a Backup object - but we have no account + # system yet, so we will opt out of sending that for now. + # --- + # We send the payload back as a base64 string - the same way we retrieved it. + return base64.b64encode(FirstContactResp.SerializeToString()) + elif subpath == "save_backup": + # NOTE: This took me way longer to realize than it should have, but the base64 + # payload you receive from client is broken due to some Android bug, where it + # substitutes "+" symbols with a " " whitespace. + # I don't want you to waste half hour to hours figuring out why you're getting + # corrupted data, so you're welcome. + Backup = EIProto.Backup() + Backup.ParseFromString(base64.b64decode(form["data"].replace(" ", "+")) + print(Backup) + elif subpath == "get_periodicals": + Periodicals = EIProto.GetPeriodicalsRequest() + Periodicals.ParseFromString(base64.b64decode(form["data"]) + print(Periodicals) + else: + print(request.form) + return "" +``` + +We should now see what these payloads actually contain when deserialized (for your reading experience, I advise you to rather +try this out yourself - the Backup structure is VERY large). + +Upon these payloads reaching the server, we see that a very much populated Backup message makes its way through and a relatively +thin payload of PeriodicalsRequest comes through, which isn't very useful by itself. + +Now, this is why the game developer ended up creating forms of anticheat in future versions of this app - the Backup message contains +your entire game state, which is often sent as a way to save your progress to cloud, but there is no actual sanity checking in place +to ensure you're not progressing way too fast. Personally, I am of the mind that anticheat should be done on the server-side, not +on the client-side, but I digress. We can use this to prove a very obvious vulnerability when using trust-client-always architecture. + +The game has an In App Purchase for "Pro Permit", which allows you to build more Silos, which in turn allow you to get offline +rewards for a longer period of time. If we look at protobuf definition file, you can see under Backup.game, a field called "permit_level", +which by default is zero. Lets try to change that and present a modified Backup the next time user opens the game. + + +``` +cache = {} + +@app.route("/ei/", methods=["POST"]) +def ei_routes(subpath): + print("HTTP POST /ei/" + subpath) + if subpath == "first_contact": + # Create the protobuf object so we can load data from the b64 payload + FirstContact = EIProto.EggIncFirstContactRequest() + FirstContact.ParseFromString(base64.b64decode(form["data"])) + print("We got a first contact hello from user " + FirstContact.user_id) + # Lets respond with a FirstContactResponse + FirstContactResp = EIProto.EggIncFirstContactResponse() + if FirstContact.user_id in cache: + FirstContactResp.backup.CopyFrom(cache[FirstContact.user_id]) + del cache[FirstContact.user_id] + return base64.b64encode(FirstContactResp.SerializeToString()) + elif subpath == "save_backup": + # NOTE: This took me way longer to realize than it should have, but the base64 + # payload you receive from client is broken due to some Android bug, where it + # substitutes "+" symbols with a " " whitespace. + # I don't want you to waste half hour to hours figuring out why you're getting + # corrupted data, so you're welcome. + Backup = EIProto.Backup() + Backup.ParseFromString(base64.b64decode(form["data"].replace(" ", "+")) + if Backup.game.permit_level == 0: + print("Saved a modified Backup for next game load") + # Modify the permit level, force offer the backup + Backup.game.permit_level = 1 + Backup.force_offer_backup = True + Backup.force_backup = True + cache[Backup.user_id] = Backup + elif subpath == "get_periodicals": + Periodicals = EIProto.GetPeriodicalsRequest() + Periodicals.ParseFromString(base64.b64decode(form["data"]) + print(Periodicals) + else: + print(request.form) + return "" +``` + +Lets load up the game. Nothing interesting seems to be happening yet - lets wait until we see the "Saved a modified Backup for next game load" message +show up in the server console. Once this shows up, restart the game - you are presented with a popup that you are offered to load a +Backup from server. Let's accept that. + +Now click on your silos, you have the Pro Permit for free. + +Now, it goes without saying, I do not condone piracy - the future versions of this game are very much guarded against this, rightfully so. +If you attempt this in actual game servers, this is considered fraud and IS detectable by the developer (every IAP has a receipt, logically!). + +This version of the game is defunct as the protocol has changed quite a bit in the years since this version and additional anticheat +measures have been added since. You cannot transfer this status (or even purchase what you just did) from this game version to the next. + +### Onto the PeriodicalsRequest +This one is a bit more fun to delve into blindly - the proto spec wont help you much here. We will need to use our trusty RE tools again and delve into +the game disassembly again. + +By public knowledge, we know there are server events for "Epic Research Sale", "Research Sale", "Drone Bonus" and "Prestige Boost". We can use this information to try +and look at any potential leads in strings. Drone seems like a good canditate, lets look into that. +``` +drone_fans2 +drone_crash +drone_enemy +drone_hunter +r_icon_drone_rewards +b_icon_drone_boost +drone_touch +ei_drone_lights_green +ei_drone_lights_red +ei_drone_package +ei_drone_propeller +drone-boost +GENEROUS DRONES +``` +This looks promising, right off the bat, first strings I'd check here are `r_icon_drone_rewards`, `b_icon_drone_boost`, `drone-boost` and `GENEROUS DRONES`. + +I inspected all 4 of them, and when I got to final 2, I found the enum string translations used for event IDs - here they are extracted for game version 1.12.13 +``` +piggy-boost (Rate piggy fills is increased.) +piggy-cap-boost (UNLIMITED PIGGY;Gains are retained when event ends.) +prestige-boost (PRESTIGE BOOST;Collect more soul eggs on prestige, you must prestige to take advantage of this event.) +earnings-boost (CASH BOOST;Regular earnings are increased.) +gift-boost (GENEROUS GIFTS;Boost applies to random gifts and video gifts.) +drone-boost (GENEROUS DRONES;Drones will produce larger rewards.) +epic-research-sale (EPIC RESEARCH SALE;Only applies to Epic Research.) +vehicle-sale (VEHICLE SALE;Applies to all vehicles.) +boost-sale (BOOST SALE;Applies to the gold price of boosts.) +boost-duration (BOOST TIME+;Boosts last longer, you must start a boost during the event.) +``` +I recall there being a few more boosts, but this is useful for getting started with compositing PeriodicalsResponse with an active running event. + +### Putting together the response +We have the enum, we have the names, descriptions, lets try to create a sample server event when the client enqueries about current server periodical events. +``` + elif subpath == "get_periodicals": + # We don't actually need the information client sends us, + # we aren't verifying any stats about client in our server. + CurrentPeriodicals = EIProto.PeriodicalsResponse() + # In order to add items to a repeatable field in protobuf structure, + # we need to call .add() method on it + event = CurrentPeriodicals.events.events.add() + # Refer to ei.proto - we are filling fields for EggIncEvent structure here. + event.type = "drone-boost" + event.multiplier = 5.00 + event.subtitle = "Drones will produce larger rewards." + event.identifier = "GENEROUS DRONES" + event.seconds_remaining = 300.0 + # Lets make it respond with a 5 minute event (this will re-arm itself when client calls + # for get_periodicals again every 6 minutes) + return base64.b64encode(CurrentPeriodicals.SerializeToString()) +``` + +Launch the server and observe as the client periodically calls this endpoint again, it will now receive a 5 minute 5x Drone Rewards boost on the game. + +## Created the Server - What now? +We have now created a very basic server, which appropriately responds to a first contact, misuses the game backup feature to prove a point about weaknesses of +trusting client in server. We also created a very basic server event, which always rearms itself to never expire. + +What do we do next? + +At this point, we can start dog-fooding the project. Lets start with whatever ball game throws at us as we progress. + +### Contracts +As we progress the game and start performing prestiges, we unlock a feature called "Contracts" - but disaster strikes as we don't have any contracts we could +accept. So far we stil see our good friends `/ei/get_periodicals` and `/ei/save_backup` hammering the server at regular intervals. + +When we created the periodicals response payload, you might have noticed in the protobuf message an optional field called `ContractsResponse contracts`. Lets see +what this ContractsResponse message contains. + +``` +message ContractsResponse { + repeated Contract contracts = 1; + optional string warning_message = 4; + optional double server_time = 2; + optional uint32 max_eop = 3 [default = 1000]; +} +``` + +Notice there being an array of Contract messages right off the bat - lets find its message structure next: + +``` +message Contract { + optional string identifier = 1; + optional string name = 9; + optional string description = 10; + optional Egg egg = 2; + + repeated Goal goals = 3; + message Goal { + optional GoalType type = 1; + optional double target_amount = 2; + optional RewardType reward_type = 3; + optional string reward_sub_type = 4; + optional double reward_amount = 5; + optional double target_soul_eggs = 6; + } + + repeated GoalSet goal_sets = 16; + message GoalSet { + repeated Goal goals = 1; + } + + optional bool coop_allowed = 4; + optional uint32 max_coop_size = 5; + optional uint32 max_boosts = 12; + optional double minutes_per_token = 15 [default = 60]; + optional double expiration_time = 6; + optional double length_seconds = 7; + optional double max_soul_eggs = 13; + optional uint32 min_client_version = 14; + optional bool debug = 11; +} +``` + +We will need to do a bit of reading. Fortunately, the game has a community wiki, lets look into how contracts should work. I took an +[older revision of Contracts wiki page from 2021](https://egg-inc.fandom.com/wiki/Contracts?oldid=13015) and did some slight research. + +From what I gather, at one point, there was only one set of contract rewards, shared between everyone - then they created a system where +beginners will get easier contract goals while more advanced players get harder contract goals. + +We can put two-and-two together here and infer that `repeated Goal goals` is the legacy contract system - where everyone was on equal footing +and `repeated GoalSet goal_sets` is the *new* goal system that is split into Standard and Elite. + +We also learn that in future game version, they completely reworked how contracts work *yet* again into a grading "bracket" system. Fortunately, +we do not have to worry about that in our current target revision. + +Now to get the ball rolling, there is conveniently a starting point set ahead for us already. The developer of game intended to ease new players into +contracts by creating a simple & easy contract called [Your First Contract](https://egg-inc.fandom.com/wiki/Contracts/Your_First_Contract?oldid=13547). + +This page tells us all the information we need to compose our first Contract, so lets try to make one. + +``` + elif subpath == "get_periodicals": + # We don't actually need the information client sends us, + # we aren't verifying any stats about client in our server. + CurrentPeriodicals = EIProto.PeriodicalsResponse() + # [...] + Contract = CurrentPeriodicals.contracts.contracts.add() + Contract.identifier = "first-contract" + Contract.name = "Your First Contract" + Contract.description = "We heard you are open to contract work! Help fill this order from the local pharmacy!" + Contract.egg = EIProto.Egg.MEDICAL + Contract.coop_allowed = False + Contract.minutes_per_token = 5 + # Lets set expiry time to always be 3 days into future + Contract.expiration_time = time.time() + (3600.0 * 72.0) + Contract.length_seconds = 3600.0 * 4.0 + # The wiki mentions that you cannot get this contract after you reach 5000 Soul Eggs + Contract.max_soul_eggs = 5000.0 + # We should have the basic metadata set now, lets create the goalsets. + FirstSet = Contract.goal_sets.add() + Goal = FirstSet.goals.add() + # There is only one type of goal in this verison + Goal.type = EIProto.GoalType.EGGS_LAID + Goal.target_amount = 100000.0 + Goal.reward_type = EIProto.RewardType.GOLD + Goal.reward_amount = 192 + Goal = FirstSet.goals.add() + Goal.type = EIProto.GoalType.EGGS_LAID + Goal.target_amount = 500000000.0 + Goal.reward_type = EIProto.RewardType.PIGGY_FILL + Goal.reward_amount = 10000 + # Lets now add the Elite table, we can pretty much copy-paste the above here. + SecondSet = Contract.goal_sets.add() + Goal = SecondSet.goals.add() + Goal.type = EIProto.GoalType.EGGS_LAID + Goal.target_amount = 100000.0 + Goal.reward_type = EIProto.RewardType.GOLD + Goal.reward_amount = 500 + Goal = SecondSet.goals.add() + Goal.type = EIProto.GoalType.EGGS_LAID + Goal.target_amount = 500000000.0 + Goal.reward_type = EIProto.RewardType.PIGGY_FILL + Goal.reward_amount = 10000 + return base64.b64encode(CurrentPeriodicals.SerializeToString()) +``` + +Lets try that out in-game now - after waiting for a minute, we see our contract prop up, but I immediately noticed one thing amiss. +The contract goals are swapped! I am getting Elite contract rewards for a Standard contract. + +This piece of information now tells us that the first entry in GoalSets refers to Elite rewards and the second entry in GoalSets to Standard rewards. +After swapping the sets around, we now see a contract with the corrected rewards. + +I playtested it a bit and the contract worked as expected. + +Now, the above code could be a lot neater. For your homework, if you're not skipping to the public source release in the end, you should try to create +a contract database and try scheduling them like the game originally did - a "Leggacy" contract every Friday and regular contracts showing up every 1-2 weeks +for roughly 2 weeks. + +## Conclusion so far +We have created a (rather ugly looking) server emulator for the game. It functions, but it needs a lot of work still before we can call it ready. +If you have followed this far, give yourself pat on the back - if you actually tried to run this code, give yourself an extra pat on the back. + +Before I give you the public source to the project, you might want to try your hand at creating a few more things. +- "Cloud" save, present a Backup to any new device that just started playing. +- Contracts Database and scheduler +- Server Event scheduler + +I apologize if my method of documenting this has been messy, but that's also part of the chaos of reverse engineering, you are constantly learning new things +about the project you are currently doing - refactoring becomes an essential part once you have documented the protocol to a comfortable degree. + +I won't give any promises for a part 2 any time soon, but I will be trying to make this feature complete, so without further ado, here are the git repository links: +[github.com](https://github.com/cernodile/reEgg), [git.based.quest](https://git.based.quest/?p=reEgg.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/master;hb=refs/heads/master). + +Thank you for reading and making it all the way to the end, +- Cernodile diff --git a/layouts/partials/links.html b/layouts/partials/links.html index 7609e46..67cfd73 100644 --- a/layouts/partials/links.html +++ b/layouts/partials/links.html @@ -1,3 +1,3 @@ -
