If only it was that easy... There's one problem - to do that, you need to figure out the signing algorithm, and if it contains a random number then even with the key - good luck. The result of signing will be different each and every time.very interesting. what a dumb oversight with the wiistill, this gives us the possibility of a modchip based on neimod's hardware, to:
a) get unsigned packages from eshop, directly from memory, before they are encrypted ("ripping")
and then later (on another 3ds, also "chipped")
b) inject them into ram, overwriting another (random) package about to be signed (say, a free demo you are downloading)
of course, this would only be interesting for pirating, not homebrew.
The PS3 had a similar issue, except Sony made an interesting oversight. Y'see, it's the famous...
rand() == 4
Don't ask me how it happened - they corrected it later. Technically, the algorithm had a "random number", except the random number was always 4.
