New crack method works on current firmware, doesn't require dongle, and the private keys have been foundso anyone can have signed SELF files.

Watch the videos of how it was done. They are awesome - Sony made huge mistakes in the design of the security measures.

Seeing as it took this long to crack, I highly doubt Sony made huge mistakes in it's design. It took over 4 years to crack. Compare that with nearly every other system ever made; those were usually craked in just over a month.

Watch the part 3 video. You'll see.

It's just that people didn't know it was that bad so they could attack at the weak point.

 

@psrock

Can't be fixed by software update.

 

@ "but it took so long"

Their argument is that it wasn't a big target until Sony stopped you running LInux on it and that got the big hacking teams interested because Linux is the main reason they hack things.

 

 

Yeah right. there are 45 million PS3s out there, and only now they managed to hack it properly. Well actually no, untill I see some real apps, this is useless. Dont try to feed me that. No matter what the reason is, they still needed 4 years to find cracks in the PS3, and I doubt that there wherent interested in what many considered the most powerfull console.

Bolded: who cares? dark alex managed to crack every PSP system firmware in less then 24 hours after release. Now he was a good hacker. These guys... slackers I tell you
