[Unconfirmed] ARM11 Kernel Vulnerability under 10.0.0-X

[Skullgrill]

AAAYYYYY I decided to only update my old launch 3ds not the newer old xl

This is not related to this specific exploit, but about a research i'm doing that can lead to the same results.
So, i need help and have a fcram dump from a old3ds firmware 10.1.
This can be easily achieved with an emunand and a cfw i guess, maybe rxtools.

send it to mass.

"besides triggering a kernelpanic with certain s32_processorid value(s)" <--- That's probably the crash you're getting.

No, I confirmed it's actually "Data Abort" with CakesFW.

So this has some water still?

 

[piratesephiroth]

this is getting weird

Glad I stuck with 9.2

I'll admit this got me excited until I read through the comments. Good thing only one of my 3ds' is above 9.2

tl;dr:

A thread such as this, with an interesting idea and maybe potential to be looked further into, has simply turned into a huge clusterfuck cuz ppl can't hold their willies and simply wait for something relevant to be said.

I'm sure that "Yay, I can't wait to use it" or "Please halp, I already updated" will greatly contribute to this thread...

To everybody: This does nothing. This is nothing. This isn't an exploit. We still need to find one. This just shows it "might" be possible. Even though we've known about this before 10.0 even released.

And finally (can't be bothered to read through all 12 pages of crap in this thread, so instead I'm quoting IRC):

12:44 <@profi200> And the ARM11 kernel thread is still not dead but it was confirmed multiple times that the vuln is useless.
12:47 <@profi200> That vuln does nothing which could be useful.

And isn't it impossible to downgrade from 9.9 to 9.2 due to the new encryption anyway? At least on n3DS.

huh? a little more explanation please.

 

[teampleb]

I was told the lowest you could downgrade to was 9.6 or so on n3DS. As that's when the new encryption was introduced. I don't know if that's correct or not though. I think it is.

Since the 9.6 update, the N3DS NATIVE_FIRM uses a new encryption. That's the reason emuNAND can't be updated higher than 9.5 on New 3DS.

Ah, I read that wrong, thanks guys!

I quoted the wrong post I wanted to quote @Steveice10, what does that even mean "besides triggering a kernelpanic with certain s32_processorid value(s)"?
