PSP 6.30 Exploit and Hello world by Mamosuke FAQ
まず、このHello Worldについての情報をお伝えします。
Now I give you some information about my exploit.Q:これはどんなexploitなの?
What is this exploit?A:PSPの最新公式ファームウェア(6.30)で動作するセーブデータを使ったexploitです。
This is a savegame exploit for PSP that works on the latest official firmware.Q:なんのゲーム?教えてほしいんだけど。
We want to know the name of the game.Tell us plz.
A:ゲーム名は明かせません。ビデオのみの公開です。このexploitは日本版のあるゲームを利用していますが、海外版もありますのでそちらにも同じ脆弱性はあるだろうと思います。
I can not reveal the name of its game, but now on line with only a video. My exploit in now working on JP version,but in fact, there are another regions of the game so I think it would have a same vulnerability.Q:ビデオだけってのはFAKEじゃないの?
Only video never show us the proof of anything. Probably FAKE?
A:バイナリーローダーの段階でゲーム名を明かすと次のファームウェアアップデートで対策されることが確実なので現段階では明かすことができません。
Now I made only a binary loader. If I would say the name of the game, Sony could kill my exploit before I would release anything in the next firmware update.Q:J416氏のexploitと同じなの?
Is yours the same as J416 exploit?
A:違います。別のゲームです。
No. Another one.Q:いつリリースするの?
When will it be released?
A:リリースするかどうかも含めて検討中です。少なくとも誰かさんみたいにHello Worldだけリリースするような愚かな行為はしません。もちろん対策されたら公開します。
I am going to think it over before releasing from now. But I know that I do not have to make public before getting some results: at least I am not going to release only the “Hello World” like stupid malloxXX who released patapon2 Hello World for the first time in the world. But if Sony would patch my exploit, I would release it.Q:体験版はあるの?PSNでダウンロードできるの?
Is there a DEMO version? Can I buy it at PSN?
A:セーブできる体験版はないと思います。PSNでダウンロード購入できますが、PSP goでためしたらセーブデータ読み込んでフリーズこきました。
I have never seen a demo version which can have a savedata. We can find a downloadable version in PSN but I tried my exploit on my PSP go, it froze after reading a savedata.
