PS3 Hackers able to sign code (and more)!

[Trygle12]

everyone is forgetting that those guys don't support piracy and they probably wont release the actual signing method, who knows how long until someone who actually wants piracy and cheating figures the same thing out.

the main concern should be people being able to resign retail games to run from burnt discs on unmodded systems and selling them to unwary suckers.

...But those that have the resources know it is possible. They know more or less what to look for.

Ultimately this is Sony's fault.

Thats awesome, I can run ISO on the PS3, and i dont care about cheater, id rather play online with my friends anyway and we dont cheat so im not concerned with that.

Running ISO and homebrew is great though, way to go.

PSN games and the PSN online games are the biggest things at risk right now.
I'd doubt many future pirates have a Blu-Ray burner ready to go in the event that you can (will) burn Blu-ray games for the PS3.

no one needs a bluray to pirate ps3 games even before this latest news happened
even a 12 year old with a simple portable hardrive and a calculator or ipod can easily download the majority of games with most around 5 gig and get them to work
expect for the latest most notibly gt5 and play them for no cost

the security tank ps3. lol! more like security jank!

 

[Maz7006]

Sony sucks security wise lol.

it's not like the Nintendo stuff or even the Xbox is any better

I thought PSN games would have the least risk, cuz they are using an unknown file system or something. This Signing hack only make homebrew to work to work, and a iso loader software rip retail games. I don't follow the PS3 scene so not too sure.

Dont know about, but if we had the keys, we can make a different online client, and scre up PSN, no?

Pretty sure that is a different beast. All online transactions are handled server-side. There would be little you could do to modify or "scre" up PSN directly from just having the keys.

Sorry for forgot to press W :/

 

[WiiUBricker]

So the PS3 is now a PC, huh?
I think the PS4 will come early.

before this latest news psn games could be played on a jb but they needed to be patched or something and only a few were done .

 

[8BitWalugi]

Just hope this doesn't mean more cheaters on PSN
Ugh...MW2 was INFESTED with them... T-T

And what about Black Ops!? Fucking floating apple...

Heard of the edit button?

Anyway, that aside, I wonder when this will become available to us? Same goes for that DSi exploit.

I think they ran it through some proxy server, they never really did crack any of the PSN software. Ppl still cant figure out how to extract save files from HDD of broken PS3, I was looking to do so recently to get my save from my HDD. Again, I dont follow the scene, not 100% sure.

 

[shakirmoledina]

lovely... now i can buy one if I wanted to (ask getting a ps3jailback like all other devices is quite difficult)
beautiful work by these hackers, someone day i wish to reach there (to understand what they are doing not hacking big time atleast)
committed team i guess as the wii is well hacked and its easy to install the hbc which does not put too much commitment to it

EDIT: Just saw the video and it may seem sony rushed some parts... how do they get the algorithms? are they generated or something or is it in the manual somewhere?

 

[DBlaze]

I love how they're all like "EPIC FAIL OMG LOL WE HACKED IT", after it took like, forever to get to this point to begin with.
I have yet to see anything work on the current firmware myself, so wake me up when we get to that point.

It only took 12 months. Hardly a long time.
Watch the presentation, then you'll understand.

 

[squall23]

It's starting, guys.

Well, that was short but worthwhile.

WARNING EXPLICIT LANGUAGE

i fucking hate all those noobs who are like "boooo, they arent even good, took them 4 years... they copied the jailbreak.... they did nothing...." fuck those people.
TT hack been able to get most of the keys, decrypt all sorts of things and the ps3 is their bitch.
dongle-less jailbreaking possible in the future... probably near future (say a few months) with almost full control over the system.

its the fucking pirates who are all, oh it took them 4 years for them to give me my l33t w4rez... i want it nowzzzzz. TT arnt people who pirate, they are good honest hardworking people who require no payment for any of their software. what is wrong with the scene these days... too many fucking 12 year olds that know nothing and constantly asking "whats this?"

FUCK!

Small bit of trivia for you guys:

By having access to the private keys, one of the more renowned discussions about it is homebrew apps can just be "liscensed" and interpreted as Sony-official applications on the PS3. Another thing to note, and probably the reason it may take a new console SKU to fix this is that every single PS3 game currently released uses that set key. The only way to counteract that exploit would to make an all new model of the PS3 that regenerates a random key while having a method to reset every single PS3 game ever released to now recognize the new key as legitimate.

This has the potential damage of being so bad for Sony that their next console may have to prevent PS3 backwards compatibility, as the exploit with the key will simply transfer over. This is a huge fuckup for Sony, and it's absolutely amazing to see the once impenetrable fortress basically be on the whim of being the most exploited platform this generation in terms of an exploit. To put this into perspective, nobody even has access to the private keys on the Nintendo Wii. This is a gigantic missile to the PS3 much more than custom firmware was for the PSP.

And to believe this all started by Sony bullshitting and taking out features for a device.

Wow, sony is screwed. Also, overlord if you want to protect little kiddes use spoilers
