Hacking comex's brawl haxx

[bootsector]

Hope the upcoming black wii doesn't have a fix for this!

 

[sevast]

So, umm, I thought twizzlers were against showing all their cards... What's up with this coming out when bannerbomb's still working?

 

[jan777]

bannerbomb can be fixed with the next systemmenuupdate

 

[nIxx]

Actually it´s more difficult to patch this exploit as the bannerbomb, because it´s a file that is only loaded from the game not like the bannerbomb or TW hack which are save files

Whoa, what's going on in your sig? Is that Naruto?

Bannerbomb isn't Twizzer's exploit, I don't think.

 

[Screemer]

the bug was found by a twizzers member (svpe) but comex exploited it. this was mentioned before.

 

[Det1re]

they can still block this all they have to do is make an update that deletes the hbc itself and any other custom chans. this hack might actually make nintendo to start getting serious.

Illegal. At least here in Germany. They are not allowed to change the in that way.

Even those PSP games deleting specific directories on your MMS do illegal operations.

 

[Vidboy10]

Um guys, doesn't bannerbomb have like 4 versions?

 

[Big Kong Boss]

Wow, interesting exploit.

 

[toguro_max]

It reminds me of the Phantasy Star Online exploit ofr Gamecube, i think the basics are the same...

 

[Don Killah]

First, Bannerbomb and now this one... impressive work.
The wii scene is really the best one plus it's gonna be hard for BigN to fix this...

Most comparable to Agent under fire for xbox, the hackers that did that one had a buffer overflow in a "rain jacket" in the game u put on the rain jacket and it booted Evox up lol

 

[Apekop]

lol Softbrawl.

this is awesome. Nintendo can't patch it, so we could be looking at an undefeatable exploit here. Unless they make a new system menu which checks Brawl custom stages, but i can't see them doing that as i believe that'd slow down the system menu for people, which would make people unhappy.

I would trick it with only inserting the SD card after I started the game. System Menu has no controls there and fails.

 

[Slowking]

This exploit, however, depends entirely on code that runs from the game disc and that can only be updated by Nintendo sending out armies of ninjas to steal your Brawl and replace it with a bugfixed version.

Thank you for that awesome picture that's forming in my mind! ^^

However I'm pretty sure they can fix it by apllying a patch to the IOS Brwl runs on. The SD-access is handled by that IOS, so you can just put a check in there that looks for irregular data.

 

[FenrirWolf]

Yeah, someone mentioned that they might be able to have IOS36 updated to stop the stack smash. I didn't know that an IOS could be made to do that.

Good point. Never thought of that.

And the IOS thing. They can't stop brawl booting without new IOS, so as long as we dont update that IOS we're fine. That may still mean new people with fully updated wiis soon won't benefit, but i'm sure there'll be a workaround or something.

 

[Det1re]

Should be doable. For Example they could add a check, so files on SD get checked for a specific signature when beeing executed.
