PS3 [Update: SSL issue Resolved} BG Toolset SSL Issues (80710A06 Error) (July 2024)

[NiQ]

Probably not the wisest idea you guys remember last time when the Toolset was leaked, give him some room to decide whether he wants to open source it or not it's robust and powerful and cannot suffer any more fakes that brick consoles. if he decides to open source it then maybe he'll make sure it works offline but in the meantime no. also i certainly hope he hard codes his php if he is gonna open source it.

Worst case, Flash Writer is also "4.91 certified" by now. As long as there are nice people here in the community we won't lose CFW.

I came to this thread because I wanted to get cfw on my ps3 slim. I tried to be of some encouragement to the devs because I cannot contribute in any other way. Then, the fiddler method became available, but I could never get it working. Not a day later, DinoNuggy came into the threads and posted about his VPS. I asked if I could try it out, and he gave me the info. It worked, and I have been enjoying the best games on the ps1, some ps2, and of course ps3. While I was playing games, some idiot comes into the thread with nothing to do but complain and rant about how easy it should be to fix. The developers told the guy how its not simple, and how most people have lives to live, and personal problems in the real world. The guy somehow had more crap to talk about, while not contributing to the problem whatsoever. Today I thought I'd see how things were going in here, and if the issue got solved while I was away, and I saw all this madness. This is not reddit people. Have some thought!

That's because you haven't experienced the madness during the toolset domain being stolen rendering the exploit being unavailable, and most recently it's source code being partially stolen and russian hackers hosting it online bricking lots of consoles in the process.

Only thing in common is new users registering only to complain, insult everyone and ask for ETAs. This is nothing in comparison.

Hope everyone is having a good Monday, the starting of a great week!
We are much stronger in numbers when it comes to things like this. Together, we will get this fixed soon enough. We just have to keep encouraging the Devs to keep grinding at it in their free time.
Without them, this forum wouldn't even exist!
I currently have 6 fully restored slims waiting to be exploited including 2 rsx reflowed units.
Patiently waiting for the main site to come back online as the other methods definitely seem sus. Also not user friendly for the mass.
Lets get back to the positivity and good vibes folks!
We are a very small community afterall.

First of all, I think that "good" and "Monday" conflict by definition. Mondays should be cancelled.

Regarding the rest of your message - This forum is pretty much run by the people who make the hacks, and any sus things are swiftly removed. Such was the case with all the Russian bgtoolset clones that appeared when the official site was down for several months, and that actually bricked some consoles.

Right now there are two ways to install CFW on unmodded consoles - There's the proxy (Fiddler / mitmproxy) method, partially developed by myself, just offloads the SSL stuff to your computer but otherwise you do reach the actual official bgtoolset site and you run the official tool. The second option is the CFW Flash Writer tool, which was updated recently to support 4.91 by aldostools, who is also the lead dev of webMAN MOD and a well established member of the community.
Both methods have been tested by many people by this time and no major issues have been reported. The only cases where consoles were bricked were when people did stupid stuff (e.g. ignoring dangers reported by PyPS3Checker) and due to unfortunate circumstances (e.g. power loss during the flashing process).

You can, of course, opt to just wait until the issues with bgtoolset are resolved, but please do note that those issues involve 3rd party services (SSL CAs, Cloudflare etc.) and hence there's no way to know exactly how long it would take.

You can use the Flash Writer tool, or setup a proxy in order to bypass the SSL checks in order to use BgToolset.

If you don't feel up to the task, you can always use HEN.

 

[dazza185sssu bra]

Is the proxy easy to do how would I find information on how to do so . Will it ever be fixed or this how it is now

As I get the same issue with the flash writer

 

[GuilloteTesla]

I've already provided you with a full, step-by-step tutorial from @NiQ.

Will it ever be fixed or this how it is now

It will be fixed when it's fixed. No ETAs so don't ask for them.

As I get the same issue with the flash writer

You either are not following the instructions correctly or have another major issue with your console. The proxy bypass method and Flash Writer tool both work.

Thank you heaps sorry I didn't actually notice they was links to you said that thank you heaps for this

Hey i added you 3 to a Chat with the VPS info

We CAN cancel Mondays, but that will only make Tuesday the new Monday wouldn't it? lol! I'm fully aware of the other methods that are currently "working" for some. I'm sticking to waiting for the official fix for the toolset to come out before I mod any more consoles. If we all just started using the work arounds. that leaves the main dev of this project out of the loop and in my mind they will lose interest in actually fixing this properly as people are just using a workaround. Also, these workaround are not user friendly at all compared to the original method. doable for us sure, but for the noobs in the modding scene, this is rocket science!

 

[RoboKing's Cosmos]

Yeah I suggested to the devs if they can update the PS3 firmware SSL certificates for newer websites. it's not just about the bgtoolset it is about multiple other sites that do not work on the PS3 anymore..

That's why they are called "workarounds".

If it's too complicated, you can use HEN.

The point is to exploit the PS3, not introducing fixes (which require exploits) in order to be able to exploit the PS3.

Sorry just wanted to be of help, I was thinking they can update the stuff in dev_flash/data/cert
or I guess maybe a new browser? for CFW ofc we all know Sony uses Firefox for PlayStation browser.

I know your intentions are good, no comments on that. But your approach would kill the goal of exploiting the console without having to exploit it with another method, just to be able to execute the first one.

The problem here is that the PS3 is not updated as web servers are moving on with security measures (which are always welcome).

We currently don't know how to update the certificates,. There may be some hashes hard-coded somewhere, with one hash being located in vsh.self. Unfortunately, changing this hash hasn't been enough to make it work and ofc replacing the files will not work either.

Even if we find a way to update it, it would require the system to be modified first. As you already know, the exploit is intended to work even on OFW.

Never mentioned that they where too difficult for me, sir! I had said, its too difficult for the mass. Us, in these forums are much more knowledgeable then the average ps3 user looking to mod their console. If we all just stick to using workarounds, the general mass will suffer and Devs wont feel the need to fix their exploit if everyone just considering the workarounds the new norm.

but perhaps this time gives the masses, as you called them, a newfound respect for the devs who've made it as easy as they have. it's almost to the point where the console hacks itself in terms of ease, for just about every console out there.
