​

The ReSwitched Hacking Team have done it again. motezazer, ktemkin and SciresM have achieved code execution on 4.1.0, the latest version at the time of writing this, via deja vu at TrustZone level. This means devices on 4.1.0 and below will be able to gain access to the whole system. SciresM strongly advises to not update in the future.

After less than a year, the Switch hacking team has moved extremely fast and now have got full access on the latest version. The progress being made is incredible, and in comparison, the 3DS took around 2 years to get ARM9 access. The scene is looking very promising so far and we are very lucky to have such talented people working on the Switch.

Wow, this is amazing!
...
Oh.
Oh no.
Now Nintendo's gonna make the Switch more stable than a brick-fucking-wall.

 

[Xyphoseos]

I want to update to dl update and dlc of botw and some gme in the eshop :'(
But I think it's always better to stay in lower version ? (I'm in 3.0.0)

 

[Tempest228]

Now no one has an excuse to complain about being above firmware (until 4.2 switches are shipped)

 

[TheGreek Boy]

i'm on 3.0.0 and i'm not updating no matter what, hbl will come very soon

Nintendoes what Trump doesn't

The scene can only work to what version is available. To be able to conquer current FW is pretty damn impressive. Props to them.

people always scream for release , but first the holes needs to be patched befor they can release anything

 

[isoboy]

You must be looking for people to jump down your throat. Stop being an ungrateful dip, it's unbecoming. Be happy they're making progress. No one thought 4.x was pwned completely, just goes to show you that they're working hard.

Release something.

Yes, it's always better to stay on lower firmware. Plus, lower firmwares are able to get CFW faster (At least that's what I'm hearing)

Well, I imagine Nintendo don't exactly know any more concrete fact about the exploits than we do. Lets hope they don't patch them.

if they dont patch them they will be never released it will turn like the PS4 Scene

 

[SuinkaiVS]

Wow, in less than a year, pretty cool!

 

[The Real Jdbye]

That's great news, although now that fail0verflow has shown off a coldboot exploit that works on every FW and is unpatchable, does it really matter?

If you are on 4.x or below, you will be able to gain access to the whole system's hardware. Users on lower firmwares will get CFW first.

No modchip, I hope.

I imagine they have engineers racking their brains to figure it out. They do have clues where to look. Right now the biggest annoyance to Nintendo is having exploitable switches on store shelves. I think we may see them move semi quickly.

No mention of mod chips have been made, as far as I know.

 

[yardie]

No modchip, I hope.

It's softmod

 

[RedHunter]

Yeah ok cool good job but again no release...
Not hyped anymore tbh until I have something in my hands. Also because I'm on 2.3... Let's hope this cfw comes soon.

Btw TX better start moving their asses if they don't want to lose their business before it starts.
