Homebrew I've found a way to exploit Dsi (maybe)

[rewrewrew123]

Hi people of Gbatemp.
Thanks for reading this topic.
I think I have found a possible floor of exploiting.
Do you remember about a few of years ago Nintendo released TLOZ (legend of zelda) Four Sword?
Well,it has been released free.
So,I mean,it was encrypted with the common key or (maybe) with nothing!
I haven't the necessary skill,but someone can test some hack/exploit??
I've a Dsi FW 1.4.3E if necessary for testing,feel free to contact me in pm.
It's possible a thing about that?
Nobody (I seen,I check out Google too) thinked about it.
Please answer me ASAP.

Okay, listen, a way to *hack* is with exploits, i never checked TLOZ, maybe is possible because you create a profile when you create your char, then if you wanna try exploit it, study about Buffer Overflow and Exploitation

Yeah it's a good idea!
Sadly,Idk how and where study and I can't do it!
If someone wich have good skills can do it (but the others too).
I don't know where I can start... I haven't a basical start point.

and i ask, what make you think this game can be exploited? why are the reasons you are saying this?

mmm,st4rk maybe had the answers!
BTW i don't knowed what parts to exploit
I say so,because I would (wich someone help,you too if you want) hack to dsi without sudokuhaxx (wich 5% of people had it) or wintermute hack

So you're basically thinking that just because the game was free (for a specific time period though, if I remember correctly) it's not encrypted with the common key? If that was the case the DSi couldn't even boot it.

 

[DinohScene]

Modify the save file and give a character a ton of letters and numbers as a name.
If it crashes then congratz, try to see if you can make the CPU jump to code on the SD card.

Like stark said.
It sounds easy but in reality, it's pretty tough.

I have the game on my DSi, i can try it later

hes thinking a console which is (5 years old?) no one hads bothered tried to hack it using a game that was free...

i find the odds are against the OP, but ho well without trying its 100% impossible

 

[rewrewrew123]

I have the game on my DSi, i can try it later

Ow...thank you very much man!
Please write me your progress later ok?
(in mp or on this thread)

mmm...really?
And if not so?

How I modify the save game? I wish to do it but idk how!

How I modify the save game? I wish to do it but idk how!

You can try with games like Fifa 08, if you have a flashcard, just save the game, open the .sav of game with Hex editor and check the file, but before it, study more about Buffer Overflow and Hex

You'll have to modify a characters name that will get loaded.
Think about the Bathaxx, Twilight hack etc.
Hex editors might work.

No offense but if you don't know how to modify save games then I severely doubt you'll be able to pull off an exploit.

No,you've right but I mean savegame of dsiware

mmm...I haven't a Dsi Flashcard... I have an r4i sdhc
I can try!

 

[DinohScene]

Same way you'd edit a savefile of a retail card/backup ROM.
Hex editors ;p

But like stark said, gain some knowledge by researching what buffer overflows do.
As well as research info about hex editors etc.
Once you opened a savefile, it's a whole different story from that moment on.

You've right again,but the dsiware haven't a sav file.
It isn't diassembled...not there a nds file and a sav.
It's all encrypted! Idk first how to decrypt,second how to extract savegame data...and others things...

in the first post you said four swords was maybe encrypted "with nothing"

 

[rewrewrew123]

I speak about dsiware in general!
And then,I THINK! I'm not really certainly
What I meaned wich four swords maybe could be:
-Unencrypted (encrypted with nothing is this) so just try the common key.
-Low Security
-Encrypted like the other games
-There are infinty possible!

 

[rewrewrew123]

So where I can download Fifa 08 exploit/hack?
nothing I've just searched about it.
It isn't any download unlucky
