Possible new exploit! - PSP-Forum.com

sam_pears · 08-22-2006, 11:27 AM

a few people on the qj.net forums have discovered the libtiff vulnerability. They have managed to crash their psp's using the vulnerability, now most of the time this means an exploit but it could be a false alarm.

I think what he is trying to say is that V3.0 has a higher chance of being cracked due to all the new functionalities (more doors means more holes in the wall).

So he is infact not excited about V3.0 but the possible homebrew and PS3 connectivity.

Thats what i am looking forward to anyway.

i think the guys from sony are not even sleepin to make this supposed v3.0 the most secure of all. . .

As long as there is gonna be a 2.71 downgrader soon I'm happy... :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: ...but so far its only in my dreams :cry: :cry: :cry:

Oh wait is this possible exploit for 2.70-2.71???

Ohhhh and one more thing: I've crashed my PSP plenty of times...I just switch the PSP into sleep mode while on the internet (transfering data) and when I turn it back on it freezes and then shuts off...opon power-up it makes me go through the whole date and time set-ups and to put in my nick name...what does that mean???

Is it bad??? :? :? :?
