*UPDATE* Prime conferme da Wololo [RUMOR] Exploit funzionante su Vita? Opzioni

[Alexander]

Rumor da prendere con le pinze....
Uscita ieri, PSVita sembra già essere sotto attacco da parte degli hacker. Come mostra la foto, sembra che l'exploit funzionante tramite salvataggio, o qualcosa simile, per FW 6.31, sia compatibile con Vita.
Ovviamente, per conferme dobbiamo aspettare. Restate sintonizzati su GoPSP per futuri aggiornamenti!

*UPDATE*
Wololo si è sbilanciato sul suo sito: seppur non abbia personalmente potuto provare l'exploit, conoscendo bene Mamosuke sostiene che l' HELLO WORLD sia reale.

Japanese PSP scener Mamosuke announced today on his blog that he was able to confirm a “Hello World” running on the PS Vita through the embedded PSP emulator. The exploit was made by developer teck4, and most likely relies on one of our good buffer overflow friends. and for those who are wondering “is it real?”, my current answer is that I haven’t tried it yet, but knowing Mamosuke fairly well I can tell you it’s true.

Technically, the idea behind the hack is simple but brilliant: the PS Vita has a PSP emulator, and we have plenty of PSP game exploits lying around… can we assume they will work on the emulator? That’s what teck4 tried, and the answer is yes, so he managed to run unsigned code on the PS Vita.

For those who join this blog for the first time, basically how this works is that a special save data file is crafted for a specific game. When the game is asked to load the save data, through a flaw in the game code we manage to re-route the game into executing code that we wrote ourselves. That code is usually very simple, displaying a simple message (typically “hello world”, hence the name).

From there, what happened for the PSP was that we integrated these exploits into our homebrew loading tool, Half-byte Loader, which allows people to load more interesting homebrews such as emulators, etc…
