Gaming Libtiff Exploit Found for PSP Firmware 5.50

Looks like it won't be long before every model and firmware can enjoy homebrew! That is... until OFW 5.60 comes out xD

I've read it doesn't work for most (if not everyone) people.

It's from Wololo, which is a respectable PSP coder, but I guess he doesn't have that much of experience in exploits

Nah Wololo said it wasn't him, it was someone else using his name. Also, it's just a crash, not really an exploit as of yet, if ever.

Thanks for the news!

As noted above a crash is not an exploit...as it stands this amounts to nothing.

D'oh, i was sooo close, but so far

The tiff files were also just from research Wololo was doing ages ago before the 5.03 tiff exploit, I think he was trying to get it working on 4.20 the first firmware for the PSP-3000. He didn't actually release this at all labelled as a 5.50 crash/exploit... he was also credited for a PS3 crash as well which is pretty funny.
