PS3 Hacked? Unsigned Code Running on FW 2.10?

Posted by greg on January 19, 2008

My friend Alessandro brought this link (see source) to my attention late last night some time. I refrained from posting because, well, to be honest, I’m skeptic. There’s only video proof and we all know what Hollywood is capable of. Even then, the video doesn’t actually prove much. And not to mention similar hoaxes surrounding the community which never materialized into anything. It goes on and on… I’ve decided to post now after a number of people emailed in the same news. So, you decide. Here’s the low-down so far…

Team ICE and StreetskaterFU claim to have discovered an exploit allowing the execution of unsigned code on the latest 2.10 firmware. They’ve already got an application converting ELF binaries to SELF — no release for that yet. The SELF code apparently runs but does not initialize video output. Development continues and once the video initialization issue is corrected, “Hello World” will be concrete proof.

Again, take this news with a grain of salt. Watch the video, decide for yourself, and leave your opinion below. Keep those fingers crossed!

I haven’t checked the scene for a while and seeing the homepage their are like two homebrew things. This seems like it might be legit. DOn’t flame me im just guessing.

Someone posted this on the Sony forums…if it is an exploit that means we’ll be getting a firmware update soon.

Comment by LastmanOut
2008-01-20 11:19:59

Yeah but with no exploit out in the wild or anything Sony doesn’t know whether it’s real or not and can only go by the video. They claimed they messed around with the Resistance update files in the video so Sony can’t really know what they did allegedly to the files to get what he claims in the video. So unless they go looking for it based on the info from that video and any other source they use they won’t necessarily find any exploit or loophole to patch.

2008-01-22 19:07:21

sony will be working on it. they just need the direction (the patch) and from there they can find all the things that could allow access to unsigned code, then block them

Sony will release a new firmware regardless just per chance it could lead to something. I’m gonna hold back on the updating personally though, I’m thinking this will have some substance to it - hopefully anyway.

The new OS thats been released could also lead to something if they want to go somewhere in the way of loading ISO’s - if they don’t there are plenty of hackers out there who could reverse engineer their work and create a loader. There are so many options being made available now, something has to work.

I believe they’ve achieved exactly what this shows. A blank screen. I don’t “see” that their code is being run, I see a frozen PS3. This is very reminiscent of a certain tiff exploit that was “discovered” a few months back.
Until there’s a “hello world”, there’s nothing to be excited about.

You are correct, sir. Sad to see this waste of a site post information that is clearly fake or has been reported before (like last year). They should just shut down this so-called hacks site, just a waste.

im sceptic,and even if its true i dont think its wise to tell everyone about it until its working proprely,since this can help sony to prenvent it to happend whit new update.

 
Comment by Mentality
2008-01-19 19:00:06

I don’t think so, if you know the history that when on between ps3news and dark alex then you would know those guys totally aint working for sony, for god sake, they edited code from one of dark-alex’s releases that clearly stated, if anyone related to p3snews used it, it would cause problems and if it was edited it was fuck em up. When he edited it “AND RELEASED IT” it ended up fucking up a whole load of the ps3news users psps, in which case he removed it quickly so not to take any responsability.

2008-01-19 19:07:29

Sadly, this is false and an utter waste of time. For starters, the ‘exploit’ used to launch the code is quite dated. It uses Resistance: Fall Of Man to copy a replacement EBOOT.BIN to the PS3’s HDD. This is quite similiar to the Warhawk method, however is a bit more constrained.

2008-01-19 19:54:21

wow, fuck all you douche bags. this is something.

all you do is sit around and bitch about there not being any hacks. then when somebody finally has something, you say its fake or nothing at all. well where the fuck do you think all the great shit comes from? it has to start somewhere.

these are only the beginnings of what could or could not be something. team ICE doesnt know, but they ARE doing something and making progress. they dont know if its something big or not, but they DO know more than you assholes.

stop acting like children and STOP TALKING SHIT!!!

Guys… Krust is actually making alot of sense. Go over to psp hacks and look at the latest headlines, then look for the very first news headline in the archives. Huge difference. I mean, the very first homebrew code was nothing but a poc video efects displayer. Now compare that to irshell and 3.80 M33. I guarantee you that given time, this could turn into something. lol Dark Alex get your ass over here! xD

Comment by Jeff
2008-01-21 08:52:35

Ok so you’re the only person in the whole world who knows this hack. Besides, there is no way you can load ISOs from the PS3. You’re a fucking fake so just stop now.

Paul, I quote your opening statement “I Know how to run ps2 isos off a memory stick using some thing my mate gave me but this may be usful and maybe help us boot ps3 backed up games”
Indeed it may help us, but not if you don’t share the info with the wider community. I have also searched for further info, only to find endless links to ‘fakes’. You obviously do have a way to do this, or you would not have posted back here so many times. There must be some ‘program names’ on these things your mate gave you, that’s all we need. Going Biffo with Jeff doesn’t help, and your replies never back up your original statement. Keep us all happy and let us know more info. Thanks.

this is BS. all they did is freeze the PS3…big whoop. A blank blue screen proves they are running their own coding…i think…I KNOW not. sorry but this is a load of crap and some of you must like the taste of feses.

omfg! seriously ive seen so much ignorance in these comments, i pity you idiots who say this is BS, you defenely, with your ignorant minds, do not comprehend the process because you know nothing about computers, much less hacking. This is a great step to the future, if it did indeed run unsigned code.

because you know nothing about computers doesnt mean you know all, I agree, if this is true, then its a great step to the future. Mate do you bloody know what ignorant means, no? Look it up in a dictionary and learn something for once!

If this exploit is real and alows to run unsigned codes will this mean PS3 Firmware updates will be more often just like the PSP?

Comment by LastmanOut
2008-01-20 11:33:13

No, it would only mean one update.

If it’s actually real, and if it can actually be made to do something besides freeze the system then it shouldn’t more then one update to patch it then. PSP gets updates because there’s so many holes in it, and cause they keep adding and changing stuff on it.

Comment by PimpMatt
2008-01-21 03:40:16

oh well I’m pretty sure sony will fuck up again some day. 1.50-3.50 had exploits now people just use pandora which means exploits on the PSP is kinda not useful. but more custom firmwares :D

If you want to play roms on the ps3 so badly why not add a mod chip?? most people like homebrew for pirating which is the bomb but illegal and no one gives credit.

This didn’t actually show anything…. the music was over the sooo called ‘POP’…….. The screen turned blue because it might have been his TV changing the HDMI output (Budget TV)! Also at what point do we see this ‘Unassigned code???’ (WOW they showed a resistance game save!!!) The BLANK Screen…….. Have you tried Editing a game Save on notepad on your PC??? Could be similar to the restart of the PS3 except this time, due to the updates its tries to display a message! I got a bit confused by the Warhawk bit…. did he just change the Warhawk Game save??? If so why didn’t he try loading that game!?AND WHEN DID HE CHANGE IT!!!!! I see this Cock trying this again soon lol and he’ll say it worked because when did we actually see him put a Copy Blu Ray game in???? Anyways, I HOPE SOMEONE DOES HACK IT SOON…(I’LL BUY IT STR8 AWAY!) GOOD LUCK!

Comment by Mick

at what point did he say he was able to play backups??? no point. he was jus saying he can run unsigned code which is one of the first steps to backups

im not gonna say good work, or anything (im not into black screens with nothing) but if team ICE manages to do something big with this somehow, all you @$$holes will end up eating your own $#!T.
Team ICE, if you read this (i doubt it) keep doing your stuff, at least is something, After all, this….”people” in here will be the same ones saying “OMFFGGG, YOU GUYZ ARE TEH 1337!!!!!!!!!111one!!1″ in the future. So, keep it up, and bring something to shut their mouths.

you know, all i have to say is, i really dont care if you hacked the ps3 or not, because at the end of the day i will support my computer games companies, by purchasing the games i want to own and enjoy! so good luck hackers, i mean look at the psp, totally owned, no one cares, but i think hackers need to prove themselves that they can hack the ps3, although i hope even if they do, they do it for fun…..

peace.

2008-01-20 15:10:29

alright, there has obviously been some video editing here because as you can clearly see during step 2, the ps3’s background changes from one killzone picture in the beginning, to another at the end

Comment by GAT

it could be a killzone theme that has multiple backgrounds and they will randomly switch every time u leave and return to the xmb…

OK, im tired of you douchebags, let me emlighten you. what do you think the psp tiff exploit did before the hello world code was added to it?, ill tell you, IT MADE A BLACK SCREEN U
FUCKTARDS, even after an exploit is found, it STILL requires coding before it does ANYTHING,
only time can tell, and another thing

PS3NEWS is currently the victim of a DDOS (Distributed Denial Of Service) attack, and their site is offline, and ppl did that because they fucking ruin everything for everyone INCLUDING releasing the source code for DAX’s CFW, they are about as reliable a a fucking rock trying to swim.

How can we know there is an unsigned code being run when all you see is their blank screen. I’m also curious as to why the ‘Playstation 3′ startup logo goes so quickly, did they speed that up? If so, what else did they alter in the video?!

Sony did not only made one mistake they made a lot of them ! Its to complex to avoid every mistake. And the Ps3 is much more complex than the PSP !
