Hacking Switch v4.0.X may have fixed another vulnerability, according to Hackerone

[Sonic Angel Knight]

Well, the HDMI thing was actually a big flaw for a lot of people, because their TVs were no longer working with Switch.

I'm just glad they fixed that one problem of the switch randomly controlling my tv when is docked in sleep mode. That was annoying and creepy. Now is all good, and good thing too.

to play MO, that is the answer

Yes but Smeagol needs hacks.

Apparently the user that made the report is named ryanw. I recognize the name from somewhere, but I can't seem to remember what it is related to.

Keep lower. This is the inviolable rule.

Should I update?

If you want to play SM Odessey with its update, then yes. And get The Mummy Demastered from the eshop while your FW is current.

With so many stability patches, and yet Mario can't walk in a straight line in SMO.

All major patches (+features) have a 3+ week cert process. If they had a major flaw in 4.0.0, they would likely not have pushed it out and then patch it one week after, a bug patch could have a much shorter cert time if it is a very minor touch up. Its possible but its a bit of a weird order of operations on their end.

I am pretty sure that they would make sure to patch any bugs before a major release like Mario as soon as possible. The HDMI thing sounds reasonable as they do not have the capability to test all AV configurations in house.

If you want Homebrew stay as lower as possible with your console, even if right now there are no exploit for those fw they can always popup in the future. It's always been like this people should have known it, this is the number 1 rule.

You can say it over and over till, yet nobody listens. I don't bother anymore and leave it for others to reply instead to time wasters and village idiots.

I am still on 4.0.0. Not updating, nay nay.

you missed the boat baby!! anything after 3.0.2 is useless

I'm saying "v4.0.X" in the title is because I'm not sure if v4.0.0 still has the vulnerability, or v4.0.1 fixes it?

after 3.0.1 i dont think so,enjoy the new games and get a spare switch

my philosophy is: never update nintendo's consols until there's someone's pointing a gun to ur head.

Mine's still 3.0.1 and i'll be fine with just Maio odyssey!!
