How would you open the pdf file? A Wii U can't read a pdf file.just wondering if it would be possible to create a hidden payload inside a pdf file to access homebrew?
Interesting, I never knew.http://www.nintendo.com/wiiu/built-in-software/browser-specs/
Says here that the wii u has a built in PDF viewer
lol no, finding another bug is easierjust wondering if it would be possible to create a hidden payload inside a pdf file to access homebrew?

In facts, Wii U can read PDF natively. The Manuals of N64 Virtual Console (and maybe others) are just online PDF's.
You can see here a demo where I replaced the PDF file path by a MP4 payload in Ocarina Of Time N64 VC on Wii U. But this was made on an already hacked console (to modify the path of the file).
Yeah but really that's pretty much just the old exploit but using pdf to access it instead of the gate
I could be wrong here, but:
Wasn't there a way (on PS3) years ago to intercept a pkg from Sony, to your laptop, replace it with your own, and send your file disguised as sonys to the PS3?
This is pretty useless exploitwise until it can link to something useful, but it wouldn't require a hacked console to start it.

Huh, I guess I didnt know about this one lol, can I have a link?Yep, it was just done by using a proxy. M8b it can be used here, no idea (I got no free time this days....). If i find some free time these days, I will try to see this possibility
I believe you are talking about the backup exploit where you insert a pkg file into your backup then restore it through the backup utility,

Probably not, plus if it's using the browser that's patched anyway. Now to screw up a PDF....Doh. Wii U prior to 4.0.0 cannot natively read PDF. I suck.
If the in-game manuals simply point to online PDFs, can't you simply run that through a proxy, intercept, and return the mp4 package instead of the pdf package?
It could be fake. As far as I know there is no such thing as homebrew launcher beta 5.5.2. That seems suspicious to meHey guys, take this with a grain of salt, but apparently footage has appeared of a new exploit within the Internet Browser on 5.5.2.

Now, of course, just like the last one it could be fake. However, there's something interesting I notice. If you look at the screen that pops up before the exploit is supposedly triggered, you can see what looks like a PDF file screen.
I say that because there's no buffering whatsoever, and I can't seem to find the video playback numbers at all.
Again, skepticism is required, but I just wanted to point all of this out.
EDIT: Seems like the twitter account was just made today. Take this with even more of a grain of salt.
