You took months to get the WebKit exploit working, and then, in a bit more than a week, you got shellcode execution.
That's great.

PS : By shellcode, do you mean shellcode in kernel mode, or in userland with the kernel exploit released after?

We spent months without accomplishing much (thank you, public education), then a huge team effort starting early June got us a 5.3.2 code execution. It's only userspace right now, the kernel exploit will come later (probably not too much later).

Out of curiosity, your last post you said you are trying to get shellcode execution. Now you said you just got shellcode execution. Are you working in real time now? jack Bauer style?

I happened to get it working at the time I was writing the reply, so why not include it? :P

Yes, school slowed a lot my work too.
A last question : any news of the 3.X IOSU exploitation?

Can you do all the game mods, pong, that were demonstrated in userland?

I believe they already have IOSU access and are trying to dump the OTP, based on zecoxao's post a few pages back.

We currently have the ability to load a small amount of shellcode from a buffer, but this isn't enough for larger apps. Our strategy is to use this small shellcode to modify our ROP chain and load a larger quantity from a different buffer. The part of our exploit that does this is called findcode, and it's what I'm working on right now.

So, if they are only trying, I suppose they have IOSU userland and are trying to get kernel. <-- I read the post, that's totally wrong.
Anyway, thanks for the info!

Pardon my rudeness what will exploiting the browser do?
What should I be scared/cautious about since I updated?

I hacked my wii u last year and updated the latest firmware last week. The console still works, I haven't played online yet or used my homebrew vwii in the couple of weeks and have shopped in the wii u eshop.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
