Also this reeks of C&D

 

welp back to the drawing board

 

If you actually read my posts, you'd see that I never claimed to have done it alone.

I've always been thankful for the help I've received, from my initial announcement:

Continuing through to my write-up:

I never "stole" anyone else's work. It is true since this was my first experience with any kind of kernel exploitation that I relied on multiple "hints" from others, but I also used a lot of my own ideas, and spent a huge amount of time debugging the exploit on FreeBSD, and porting to PS4.

For example, first of all, it is compiled using my SDK (which resolves the necessary userland functions like sysctl), and the exploit is triggered using my "PS4-playground" ROP framework (to setup memory). All PS4 specific addresses and offsets were discovered/calculated directly by myself: the Xpage address, sys_sendto address, and the td_critnest offset (over several hours of tedious brute forcing).

This is the opinion shared by all developers who were involved:

And finally, I never "leaked" anything. The only thing I have published (and ever plan on releasing) is the "kernel exploitation" article written by myself, which was published with the prior approval of everyone who was involved.

The only thing I regret doing is announcing that I had the kernel exploit working, without first asking for flatz consent, even though we had the kernel exploit working on FreeBSD before flatz had any involvement with us. This is the reason that flatz was angry with me for a short period of time, in a private chat, which should never have been leaked.

Please don't spread untrue rumours about me.

 

Is there any indication of this being further developed or used in any way?
