ME7Sum: https://github.com/nyetwurk/ME7Sum . Reads, analyzes, and fixes the complex proprietary checksum system used in old Bosch ECUs. Checksums in newer control units have mostly gotten simpler as more RAM and CPU were available and "multipoint" schemes were less necessary. Also can correct the very silly ME7.5 RSA signature system, where firmware was signed but self-checked using a public key contained... inside of the firmware. So the key could just be replaced and the firmware re-signed. Interesting read to understand the often arcane proprietary checksum routines manufacturers love to use.

SA2 Seed/Key: https://github.com/bri3d/sa2_seed_key VW AG Programming Mode Seed/Key is implemented using a byte code virtual machine shared across all VW control units. Other manufacturers have more or less secure Seed/Key mechanisms, but this one is interesting and clever.
