Hacking [SPECULATION] SSSpwn allows kernel access?

[AndrewPH]

I would be terribly pleased if no leaks or quotes of leaks would occur from this point onwards. Anyone's welcome to do RE on their own - not here.

-snip- you got it.

Oh come on, it was just a dumb joke, I didn't provide any links and what little appeared on the screen was useless. Take that stick out your ass willya


EDIT: see, even smealum liked my post

No sticks, just me respecting smea over here. It's not very nice to share binaries or source code that was not meant to be released. If smea's okay with sharing that file, I'm sure he'll share it himself - no need to scavenge on his website looking for scraps.

I just realised my Profile Pic is perfect for NINJHAX RE!

... You know it will happen.

I'm sure it will - leaks happen all the time, but people need to understand that it's "not cool" and not acceptable scene behaviour. Have respect for people who provide awesome stuff for all of you to enjoy. If you want to reverse-engineer, sure, go nuts, but don't link to files that aren't your own without their owner's express permission. smealum worked on this for months, the least we can do is not prowl through his website and spread hotlinks to stuff he may not be willing to share.

Ok, but everyone who's used NINJHAX has downloaded the file... Won't be sharing anything made by him anymore.

Not really knowingly from what I understand, but okay. Mind you, I'm not trying to be an ass here - just trying to stick to a certain level of courtesy. If smea thinks it's alright, I'm sure he'll speak up and the Fun Police will ease off.

 

[gypsynimrod]

Isn't Govanify just some kid who leaked something once and had a bullshit excuse for doing so?

 

[Jayro]

Do ANY games have kernel-level rights that we could probe for entry exploits?

I respect Smea I just got a little excited... And the file is the file downloaded by NINJHAX that then installs it to the savgame of Cubic Ninja. Meaning everyone who installed the exploit has downloaded the file to their 3DS (all be it temporarily).

Yes, but without those leaks, we wouldn't have shit right now.

Plenty of love going on there lol

 

[amoulton]

He just tweet

To GORTESK: I know how a toaster works, thanks. Also: http://t.co/kHnGcUKCT9 I KNOW I SAID IT WILL STAY PRIVATE BUT W/E

the smea quote is 100% out of context

"I've already been talking about this for a couple of months, so it's possible [Nintendo] may have figured out what I've been doing," he told Eurogamer. "It's just a vulnerability in a game to access a vulnerability in the system firmware. All they'd really need to do is patch the firmware, and then the game doesn't even matter."

[weatMod]

I'd trust a guy like Smealum, who is clearly an expert in the field to have discovered this exploit and to have been able to create this Homebrew launcher and who has (eventually) always kept to his word, over this illiterate thief any day.

i trust x , i trust y,everyone arguing are idiots it doesnt matter even if it does and he knows it does he cant come out and say it, his name has been published on major sites like arstechnica he would be a fool to come and say it on his twitter there is no point in arguing over who is more "trustworthy" only a fool would come out and post about it

 

[Foxi4]

Yes, but without those leaks, we wouldn't have shit right now.

To be fair, Gateway and other piracy companies gained tenfold while the community itself hasn't utilized the information in any constructive way as of yet.

 

[ground]

What if it had kernel acces? Almost nobody here ( inc me) knows how to use it AND is willing to release it.

 

[the_randomizer]

Yes, but without those leaks, we wouldn't have shit right now.

What is this shit you speak of? I see nothing beneficial that happened as a result of the leaks, do you? lol AFAIK, the leaks haven't done a damn thing good for the scene but cause more drama.

That's arguable given what we're allowed to now do with .cia files and the dev applications.

But why would anyone believe this guy's word over those of, you know, the ones doing the hacking?

I suppose you're right - stuff is brewing as far as custom themes are concerned. For the most part though, the .CIA installer is just used for piracy. A lot of RE going on though, so... yeah.
