PS3 PS3 4.85 Sooner than we think?

Even with the greatest will in the world, when a new OFW update is released, there'll be plenty of people who'll have 'accidentally updated' despite the same situation already occurring twice before now.

i think they will make a checker that verify the files (modules sprx) to be a per firmware only so if we download OFW 4.85 and put silk_webkit.sprx in that even its signed by Them it will not work cause that file isn't encrypted 0000004008500000 FW and with that a new work is needed to redo exploit from 0 or to apply changes to be compatbile with 4.85 with new entry

They already have something like that running inside the PS3 firmware, there are some files named something like "community" that contains lists of most/all the plugins and eecutable files that are loaded by the firmware, with his hashes and timestamps

Well, i must say 4.85 was a bit sooner than we thought

well, sony doesn't like looking stupid like they did with the ps3. the only one with worse security is nintendo. microsoft is still pretty solid with a hard mod needed to play content on the 360, and the xbone has no hack I believe due to the dev system.

xbone is actually a very secured system (the operating system that is) compared it to PS4 and Switch that actually runs on a opensource kernel. one strong thing the xbone had is all game is actually work similarly like OVA files (if your familiar with Virtual Machines then you know what that is) which runs it on a virtualized environment making every game have its own operating system that is very isolated not even a bug in a game can be used.

@remlei: Would you mind providing more evidence for your claims?


Neither Virtualisation, nor an own OS stops Exploits from being possible.

Just look up 'non executable bit'/NX-Bit or blue-pill-hacking...


ROP (return oriented programming also known as return-to-libc) and JOP- (jump oriented programming) Exploits should be possible on an Xbox One, albeit not quite easy due to the closed source Kernel.

An exploitable vulnerability in the game-code is almost certain to be present, but since you have to 'break out' of the secured environment to get system-access, you would need to have at least 2 Exploits ('chain') to hack the system, because a user-space-exploitation would not yield the desired rights and access to the system.
