[QUOTE="FAST6191, post: 8018374, member: 32303"] Your write your own debugger [MEDIA=youtube]HnJAoWgwZQY[/MEDIA] The CPU type will tend to be known so that is easy enough, if you can get your hands on the SDK then that might tell you something (modern ones not so much but hey), you might have a hardware debugger attached so you can see where it returns to upon reset or a few choice actions. If you have disassembled code you can usually also see jump locations and start to get a picture of memory from those. There are a few weak points common in most systems (save game checking, file hash checking, debug/factory restore routines and all the other things you see being used in hacks) so you find those and check them until you find one you can exploit. NAND these days tends to be encrypted but you might try finding when it is not encrypted (see something like the original xbox hotswap), equally you probably don't care about the game partition/data at first and instead want the menu and all its code so see what you can find in RAM. Similarly you may look to find ones not out of the factory, things used in repair shops, things given to developers, prototypes and other things that might not have end stage security but will have things you can look at. On top of this you also have side channel attacks which got popular again in recent years and can yield keys Consider also that during this you don't need a reliable method for end users -- spending a week getting an exploit to run is no big deal.
