Hacking Wii u updated

[Ghassen-ga]

ISOUHAX is like the elusive Bigfoot, Nessie, chupacabra, aliens or unicorn. Take your pick. Lots of alleged sightings but no concrete proof of existence. Also these mythical beasts (ISOUHAX included) make for good storytelling though. I'm thinking alien confirmation may break before ISOUHAX though. Just chiming in because I saw some ISOUHAX fodder in an earlier post in this thread.

Ohhh, so smea's rednand exploit didn't actually exist, even thou he showed us a video proof? :o

Hey how's GraceU coming

Grace-U is finished. Has been for a while. The Grace project continues, and are using the grace exploit for other devices.

1. Don't try to act like a nerd, if you think I'm stupid and don't know how stuff goes.
2. What you said isn't 100% about the latest firmware, as in my post that you quoted, I showed a proof that there were other changes made in 5.5.1, I even posted an exact quote from WiiUBrew.project outage

I won't be replying to your messages anymore, because I don't care a bit about what you say, what you think, and what you claim.

Have a nice day.

Seriously, just went to look at what you are attempting to talk about. There is nothing about any updates to IOS or kernel in 5.5.1 from 5.5.0
The only thing stated updated is the version data. (which would be the change in the numbers from 5.5.0 to 5.5.1) And the webkit version.
I don't know where you are getting any information about anything else being change on any other level besides those areas.
I am pretty sure where that would have come from would have been when they patched the kernel exploit from either 5.0 to 5.1 or 5.1 to 5.2.
That is where they made the checks for dangling pointers. It's been far too long and I don't really remember that far back.
But it definitely wasn't in the last update. As that update didn't make any changes to anything besides webkit and version data.

As to the existence of "IOSU". It's real, it's there, and a few have exploited it. It runs like a professional workstation would. If you were the general user of that workstation you would have access to whatever was needed to do your job. You could move icons around, maybe rename some of them, download pre approved apps, ect. But more than likely you would you would not have access to system files and whatever else the business did not want you to access. Now on most pc installations a password and user can be entered to access what is know as the root user. That user can make alterations to any file in the OS even the user section of the locked out user.
Now that being said there is another way to install this locking procedure without a root access point but with a remote root access.
This is really how the wii u has been set up. There is no interface for the IOS portion of the wii u. It also gets root access by downloading an approved site update and self checking validity then installing that update.
You can look at the long list of public documentation to see how this runs like a root user.


One of the biggest things I find funny is the fact many think Nintendo somehow violated gnpl terms with wii u OS. In reality they have done no such thing. Request pulled from the OS to web browser files happen frequently during operations. The disclosure of opensource coding is in fact completely correct as that is probably the only open source coding used. But, what isn't disclosed is the useage. And that is not required to be given as all of the open source coding was for the browser and other functions and operations can pull parts without disclosing that. It's kinda a gray area.
This last part has nothing to do with anything posted in this thread at all. But I wouldn't be me if I didn't post something you didn't know and probably don't need to and/or don't care to know.

tl;dr.

Both WiiUBrew and @WulfyStylez confirm what I said

Also, WiiUBrew is the site Hykem and other people have been posting information about the Wii U's IOS to.

Stop replying to me because your replys are pointless.

Here are two quotes that confirm everthing I said:

However, in firmware 5.5.1 a new check was added to the system call handler that verifies if the calling thread's stack pointer is valid. In order to sucessfully make use of this exploit chain in firmware 5.5.1 one must be sure to build a small enough ROP chain that allows calling a system call before the thread's stack pointer goes past the stack top address.

the main change in 5.5 IOSU (in hax terms) is that they verify SP is within the thread's specified stack addrs. If your SP is way out of range and you try to do syscalls, you'll panic. This is really trivially worked around in ROP, so it doesn't matter much.

Lol, "no way, are you sure that wiiubrew has discovered info about the wii u on it??"
Holy shit I am certain the homebrew devs arent as dumb as you. The verify sp in the stack patched use after free. That is webkit update. The use prior is a workaround to launch the ropchain prior to validity. That is fixed in the next version of webkit that nintendo hasnt updated to.
I am replying to you because you are taking what other people on wiiubrew are posting wrong.
You keep replying to me after you said you werent replying to me anymore. I can tell you just as many others can tell you there was nothing updated for kernel (other than the number change of the version) and there was nothing updated on ios level.
That is a refference to a webkit patch. The exact bug I think was 64801... Not too sure if thats correct. CVE-2011-2817 Im not 100% but that stands out for some reason. Either way this is all webkit not Ios.

Is it coming soon

Well if what is it SALT team??? Thinks the same as abood then I would say mine will be out before theirs. But at this time we have little desire to release as releasing will end with giving our so far unknown grace exploit.
I should remove my avatar. So for now lets go with Soon tm.

So you're not only doubting me, but Team SALT (@WulfyStylez) too?
I can't help but to reply and say that your post is always more stupid than the last one.
Do you think that I don't know Nintendo didn't update to the latest webkit version? You must be kidding me...

LMAO calm down man, SALT and Tinivi+co are working hard developing ios stuff for us, so there's no point in complaining.
