Browserhax exploit for ipatched Switch hardware will be out later this week
While prospects for homebrew on newer Nintendo Switch hardware, "ipatched" units, have been fairly bleak, it appears that a new exploit will be here soon. Mike Heskin (hexkyz) has confirmed that a method for users on current Switch hardware is set to be released later this week. Browserhax + nvhax will allow for ipatched systems below OFW 6.2.0 to access userland and use homebrew. This is far more limited than what can be done on unpatched units, but it marks the first breakthrough for newer hardware. Projects that work through userland mode can be found in GBAtemp's emulation, homebrew, and software projects section, and this also means you'll be able to utilize homebrew made for the bounty.
Anyway, browserhax + nvhax for < 6.2.0 will be released later this week (along with the writeup) so people with ipatched units can play around a bit in userland. It's not much, but hopefully will lead to more people researching other attack vectors in the latest firmwares.
