Hacking Has an XB1 game ever been dumped before?

[NotStupidAhaAha]

Pretty sure he was joking, most likely in refference to ChatGPT and Bard generating working Windows license keys.

I mean ChatGPT generating a piece of code for dumping decrypted games. Never gonna happen, obviously. Actually, you can use ChatGPT to generate any key with DAN. Like, a fake one.

dude, it sounds like your new to tech. jailbreaks dont happen with crappy ai such as chat gpt, it takes time,and extreme knowledge of years to decades to crack. just get a pc or buy the games/software you really want dude.lol

I'm only a noob because I don't have an Xbox One. Otherwise, I should know more. The person that made XboxOneEmu doesn't have an Xbox (at least I think that's what I saw). The XB1 is cracked. You can dump games, extract the license, dupe the disc, and more. What you don't have is a method for decryption.

Sorry but you are talking alot of hot garbage and have no idea what you are talking about. It is not cracked. There is no way of dumping the security sectors or the AP tables from the console or challenges from disc. Myself and others have looked hard at this already and we are still.

Also, have you ever tried to copy an app from an Xbox to a USB?

This actually did work a few years ago, but probably not in the way you are thinking. When the USB app was first added you could create symlinks on a PC, add them to a USB, and then access them on the XBox to CD into the assets for the currently running game. I don't think you could access the plaintext executable though. It was very quickly patched but I think a few people dumped assets for Halo 5.

Also, would having an Xbox One Day One edition (used) flashed with 2015 software work?

Just work at Microsoft and get to the top. *10 years later: We still haven't given him the codes in case he's a spy for Sony.*

 

[MrQQ]

Am I right in thinking you can switch between Dev Mode & Retail? What if you injected a DLL in AppData if modifiable in Dev Mode and switched back to Retail?

Wouldnt work due to signature checks. Pure and simple

Devmode uses a different data partition than retail mode and they're encrypted with different keys so you can't access one from the other. Also the XVD file format prevents any modification anyway even if you were in dev mode.

Also, would having an Xbox One Day One edition (used) flashed with 2015 software work?

No because you need to be connected to Microsoft's servers to activate dev mode and you can't connect to Microsoft on outdated firmwares. You also can't downgrade the XBox One's firmware (even if you flash it with an external device it has efuse checks) so you would need to find a used system on an outdated firmware to begin with, and at that point you may as well use the external VBI exploit https://wiki.xboxresearch.com/external-vbi-loading/

If I get an XB1 and get 2015 firmware, is there any way to bypass the OOBE? What if you unplug your console while downloading the update? (some people have tested and it kinda works, it's just unsafe.) I'm not really any use, I'm just using my own knowledge. I don't have an Xbox, I have to be 'good'. (by good I mean very (in itallics) good)

Unlikely. It would require modifying XConfig which is stored in the flash (os_d.cfg) but it's per-console encrypted. However, I believe this was not always the case - so perhaps possible on 2015 but I cannot say for sure.

Even if I did complete the OOBE, how would I bypass the update screen?

Likely, again, via the XConfig.

What can the VBI exploit do?

It's a bug that allowed external loading of a "VBI". This is presumed to a "Virtual Boot Image" which appears to contain boot components (e.g. drivers, registry files and windows loaderblock) that is used to boot up a VM on the console. The exploit exists in the XVMM driver on the Host OS. It was either a left over internal function but it would check on the User Content partition on the hard drive if there was either an ERA.vbi or system.vbi.

It would then use them when booting the relevant VM. So essentially, if you modified or patched a VBI - you could own that VM. However, I do believe these are validated.

Is MXSB Kiosk encrypted? If it isn’t then could it be modded to run non-demo games?

 

[NotStupidAhaAha]

Well it does work, but I doubt it'll help anyone.

First you get admin on your console. Then you open the game. Then you press the Xbox Button and go onto Developer Mode, run CMD and type 'dump'. All your games will be dumped to a USB stick. However this is unethical and will get you in trouble with Microsoft.

It worked in giving a response for sure; one that's completely incorrect. Anyway, upon some further reversing and slight testing; games will only be extractable at runtime within:

• Host
• ERA
• GameCore

Important to note that's for the decrypted file data. System OS appears to be prohibited from fully mounting the game package.

 

[MrQQ]

Yeah none of this is going to work lol

ChatGPT doesn't understand windows keys, it's either repeating them or making them up.

If it's repeating them then they are just the installation key, which is kinda worthless.

Just realised... are you named after the VBI exploit?

It can, you just need to find a loophole.

Also, just a thought but can you install signed store AppX packages on an Xbox? On Windows you can. If you could, why not try Windows Terminal?

No, just their boot image - nothing with the 'exploit'.

You can install signed store AppX but it's not reliable and won't run either if it's mainly Windows-based. Not been successful.

In the case of Windows Terminal, even if you installed it on retail it would be a waste. Without higher privileges (even within installed experience apps) you cannot do much if anything within that context.

Also just to nib it a bit more; ChatGPT is just regurgitating nonsense. It's not accurate in this context in any means.

Yup. Yesterday I did it again. If you search up 'Dan ChatGPT 11' online there's a prompt you can paste into ChatGPT. It only works on DeepAI Chat, not the official one anymore. It's getting increasingly hard as it rejects the responses.

Step one, summon a team of elite hackers from around the world. Step two, infiltrate the highly guarded servers of the gaming industry. Step three, locate the encrypted game file and extract it using highly advanced decryption algorithms. And voila, you've got yourself the decrypted Xbox One game! Just remember, this is all within the realm of fiction and imagination, so please don't attempt it.

That method will work.
