i estimate 3/4ths of this site are pirates we only say were not to stay under the radar but yes it's a huge deal i agree even though sony will just patch it up day 1

Interesting to see where this leads beyond userland... and hopefully it will be software based, rather than hardware.

.. I can see trueblue stirring.....:shit:
i feel that hard modding is probably required to some degree but someone could make a software side underground if the proper data is dumped (keys most likely)

This reminds me of the 'aux hax' by fail0verflow and the 'exploiting PS4 video apps' by m0rph3us1987 that were going around about the same time last year.

Let's hope this time something useful is found.

Maybe time to buy shares in bluray writer companies?

Or Kalisto. Code execution on a bluray disc might end up like Dreamcast MilCD.

In some ways I hope this is nothing, because it's still too soon for PS4.

this will be the same as last years 36c3... they said some code execution (people become hyped specially in ps4 segment)... when they showed it, nothing is really useful for end users... thats why ps4 scene now is almost in near death situation... but for sure something good will come, but not too soon...

Altought very interesting this is not going to give the end user any code running on ps4, neither user or kernel mode. The hack is about running code on che cpu of the optical drive (not on the PS4). Since drives (both optical and hard disk) are complex devices they have a cpu and a firmware; exploiting the cpu is nothing new. It is possible to install a custom firmware in many hard drives but this is of no interest for end users. Best thing we can hope for is a way to replace optical drives in non-modded Ps4. We had optical sata disk emulator for both xbox and ps3. If it was doable to create an ODE for Ps4 or Xbox one someone would have already done.

Sony kept blocking ODE on the PS3, so it's safe to assume they'll do the same on the PS4. I would guess that it's just not worth it financially.

They will probably patch any exploit that is published at christmas as well.

    @BigOnYa, why do people hate seasons 20 and 23 of south park?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I don't know. People hate and down vote everything nowdays. I see it especially on gamestores, like every game has a negative rating, even though they are good games.

    1st video- That's why I hate ordering stuff online, if I can just go pick it up myself nearby. Wal-Mart online did that to me years ago, sent wrong item, I went to Wal-Mart by me to return, but noo, I had to mail it back and wait.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    99% of the time ordering online I have had flawless experiences, only time something was messed up, I ordered a big TV from Amazon and it came smashed the box was literally like some one jumped up and down on it, didn't even open it, contacted Amazon sent them pictures, they made me open it and take more pictures, free label to return it and they sent another. So it was relatively painless. But still annoying.
