Hacking Wii U Browser Exploit Leaked for v4.10

[Kippykip]

There's more to it than that, that's just for the eShop itself I believe, there's a post, need to find it, but you need to block the actual server IP address itself.

Really? gotta find that D:

What does this exploit accomplish? Can it be used to further homebrew/backup loaders on the Wii U?

no it does nothing at the moment

 

[Kippykip]

Kippykip should be

23.62.236.0 (THROUGH) 23.62.236.255

I wonder how I can block ip ranges in my router

I've heard nothing but bad things about Devolution versus Nintendont which is a lot more open

Nintendont used to not be open. It also used to be illegal, since it was using GPLed code without being open. In fact, it still is illegal, because, technically, violating the GPL once means you irrevocably lose the right to use that code, even if you come into compliance later on (although most GPL authors are willing to overlook that part of the license).

Other than being open source, there is nothing morally superior about Nintendont. It blatantly enables piracy, was developed with utter disregard for open source licensing, and I hear that there was a bunch of donation/money bullshit involved too (I didn't follow that saga personally). And it's just plain crappier.

Considering that Nintendon't is non-profit, it might be a little difficult for any GPL author to prove damages and I don't think anyone would want to pay for a lawsuit that would never result in any kind of payout.

A PC enables piracy. So does a DVR or VHS, but it is not a piracy device, and neither is Nintendon't. There are plenty of completely legitimate uses.

And, in terms of piracy, most of the games that Nintendon't can play are long expired from active publication, so any piracy it encourages is not currently very damaging to most of the copyright holders.

Let's not even go there, since it's incredibly complex and full of contradictory results. And it'll just get this thread locked sooner, forcing all the noobs to infect the actual hacking thread.

"u wot m8?! ur opinion on piracy aint the same as mine!!1"

 

[probablygay]

Just to be clear from what I was reading on the first couple pages, this exploit is still present in the 5.0.0 firmware? Updated for MK8 recently haha.

yes, but nobody has created the exploit yet.

Can we not get a noob paradise thread going or FAQ? Or restrict who can post in that discussion? I don't want to wade through pages of "Y EXPLOT NO WURK ON VERSION 5" just to view progress and try to learn something.

without wanting to get too meta, we're in a forum dedicated to wiiu hacking, in which someone has actually created a thread dedicated to wiiu hacking.

we may not be dealing with the most self-aware folks on the internet here.

Maybe the vWii stuff should be split off into it's own forum section, because that's what 99% of the stuff here is about.

I really wish this were the case. I have no reason to look into anything involving vWii.

 

[Duo8]

Maybe it should be put into the Wii section.

 

[Huntereb]

I haven't updated to 5.0 yet... Hmm.

Might be a good idea to do so before you get blocked out.

 

[the_randomizer]

Might be a good idea to do so before you get blocked out.

I thought it was still possible to get it working, seeing as I already am on 5.0.0

 

[jammybudga777]

stop asking for something that has been told MANY times

 

[Huntereb]

Blocked out? What?

Before Nintendo updates 5.0, and you can't update to the newest firmware with an available exploit. Eventually 5.0 is going to be the firmware with the most support, considering how many users are already on it.
