2.80 Kernel Access Exploit from Team C+D!!!

Posted Dec 20, 2006 at 8:10PM by QJ Staff Listed in: Hacks & Exploits, Homebrew Development Tags: eLoader, Exploit, Mathieulh, Sony, TIFF
Ó


PSPTeam C+D just came out of the blue today and posted about kernel access on 2.80 (which only previously had user-mode access from the Tiff exploit). The second I read about this release, I grabbed my sweet laptop, ran in front of my Wii-boxing father, past my dusted PSP, over my NDS and into my sweet computer chair!

Just a few moments ago, the C+D team announced that they have achieved kernel access on firmware 2.80, something of which had several people stirring and furiously to test if this was indeed true. Mathieulh, a respected member of the scene, took it upon himself to confirm the validity of this statement, and he comes out of it with a positive response - it works!

This is just a "proof of concept" download, meaning that there is no downgarder yet and no kernel applications will work. However, with the scene demons pouncing on this already, it is only a matter of time before this is usable by the end-user. It currently runs through eLoader (after having compiled the eboot), so only 2.80 is supported (nothing greater). However, many have deducted from the initial testing that this may not be patched in the most recent update, 3.03 from Sony! However, as many of you know we can't run homebrew on 2.81 and beyond, so the concept and method is there, we just don't have the method of launching it!

PS: Thanks for Moca for compiling the makefile into a usable eboot for our members who have a curious mind!

Does this mean we may ( in the future ) be able to run homebrew like we do on 1.5, or will it still need the eloader, or some sort of HEN?

So....

If we cant launch kernal mode apps, how do we know if it really worked?
by cory1492 - 2006-12-20 19:03:24
...

It dumps the kernel memory, which is generally protected/inaccessable from a user mode app.
by - 2006-12-20 19:05:10
-_-

does dis include 2.81?
by - 2006-12-20 19:05:12
Finally

This is great news even though im on 1.5
by - 2006-12-20 19:10:42
yeah

like, this might be a hoax, but fanjita knows what hes talking about, and if the files dumped show kernel access, than he wouldnt lie.
by - 2006-12-20 19:13:17
answerrr

does dis include 2.81?
by - 2006-12-20 19:15:36
bad question

so wut shows up on the psp when you run this?
by rywire360 - 2006-12-20 19:22:58
Yeep Peeeeeee

Yes, the downgrader is next, then I will run DevHook for the first time in my life, then run iso's with my 2 gig I just bought. You guys kick ass!!! PS You saved my PSP from bieng sold on Ebay!

2.80

Nope. It only works on Firmware 2.80.
by - 2006-12-20 19:31:21
haha

haha guy on page 1 (6th last comment) bricked his psp what a n00b
by - 2006-12-20 19:33:16
Confirmed

This does work and is not a hoax. It simply dumps kernal memory showing that we have kernal access. Also, is it just me, or do we all not have a life. Listen to us, were all talking about kernal access on the psp, most people would consider us total geeks. lol. Good thing i have a girlfriend. lol.
by - 2006-12-20 19:35:47
yes

sweet I hope it'll work on TA-082 psp's 2 for the sake of those unfortunate people Not me I love my originally jap 1.00 and now 1.50 psp
by axelixc - 2006-12-20 19:39:37
Woo Hoo !

hell i waited for new kernel exploit quite some time. sure there will be a downgrader soon for all happy 2.80 owner which mean now devs can gain ipl access. dis could lead to new custom firmware with full proof homebrew ability. congrats to team C+D for the exploit and of course all happy 2.80 who waited patiently. yr patience will soon be paid off.
by - 2006-12-20 19:45:52
I know know im dumb

so i think i was using it right and i ran this through the eloader (kriek) it said that it was done and to check some bin file and then i tried to run snestyl me and it didnt work! what am i doing wrong help me please thank you

by axelixc - 2006-12-20 19:53:07
wat?

kernel mode apps for u? do u code? Mathieulh is the guy who together wif DA made a downgrader for 2.71. by the time if u could launch kernel mode apps, it will be the downgrader fool. he was just testing with his own method to access the kernel when will eventually unlock all security patch in ipl john, hoax? time will tell but i believe it's legit.

by - 2006-12-20 23:22:32
haha

This is sweet, I just upgraded from 2.71 to 2.80 the other day because I wanted to be able to flash gameboots, ect. (I didn't know kernel access wasn't available then) and now this. I'm sure happy! :D

by - 2006-12-20 23:43:37
instructions

you got to start eLoader, go to your XMB and launch it. When it finishes, switch off your PSP, plug it into your computer and voila, you have a piece of your PSP's Kernel. (kmem.bin)
by - 2006-12-20 23:46:17
instructions

there is another zip file inside. the makefile and .c file is the source code for devs. open the second zip and put the folder inside into your PSP\GAME dir.

by - 2006-12-20 23:59:02
yay

my psp had a 2.60 when i bought it i stupidly went up to 2.7 thinking there would never be a downgrader then the same thing happend now im on 2.80 and i have been for about 2-3 months and its finally paining off .yay 1.5 her i come
by - 2006-12-21 00:05:34
lol skit

dude if you updated from 2.71 to 2.80 that was preety stupid you could just flash gameboots from 2.71 lol and put devhook etc
by - 2006-12-21 00:19:21
yo

why does everyone want to downgrade? if we have kernel access on the 2.80 then we get to have more than 1.50 and a bit of security.
by - 2006-12-21 00:52:15
why the heck ?

u upgrade 2.71? dun u noe 2.71 can be dg? man tat was a stupid thing to do.
by - 2006-12-21 00:53:34
lol

The security is only against running homebrew, but sure, there are other good things about it. But a 2.80 SE would be better as the tiff exploit for eLoader/xLoader is quite unstable
by - 2006-12-21 00:55:47
ya right

not til 2.80 cf comes out. if it comes out.

Quated by "ryoko no usagi"

Pls read: While "kernel mode" is also a mode in the PSP security model, at lowest level. kernel mode is a property of the CPU. Certain instructions can only be executed properly in kernel mode; in user mode they cause an exception. Memory protection is the other part of kernel mode. The kernel and its data structures are located in kernel memory which cannot be accessed directly by user mode programs. This is basic operating system stuff and is similar on many architectures. On top of this kernel/user mode is the more advanced security models. In UNIX for instance, everything except actual kernel code is run in user mode, even the "highest" level of access ie root access. To allow user mode programs to make use of the kernel, controlled access is used, usually known as syscalls. A syscall takes arguments and calls the kernels interface. This interface analyzes the arguments and checks if the user mode program has proper authorization for the request. If not, it is denied, otherwise the kernel performs the operation for the user mode program. Tyranid already demonstrated how the primitive MMU of the PSP is controlled by DDR hardware registers which makes it possible to disable protection of the kernel memory (but of course it requires kernel mode to do so!). As I already saw noted by Dark_Alex, it is possible that the exploit simple disables the kernel memory protection so that user mode programs can access that memory, without having the kernel mode CPU flag set. That does not mean that user mode programs can automatically perform syscalls that require "kernel mode", because when the kernel checks the authorization, the user mode program will still just have its normal access. However, if one can modify the kernel memory, obviously such checks can be bypassed, and anything goes...

lesson learnt...

I learnt my lesson when I updated to 2.8 when I was on holiday in Spain... didn't realise it would not be homebrew-able at first... I've been waiting a long time for this, SCORE! At last I can play my precious kick-ass kernal homebrew and my MGS will work! :)

by - 2006-12-21 05:26:14
ok

so howd you get this to work on ur 3.00 if you cant use an eloader on anything higher than 2.8
by - 2006-12-21 05:32:35
might be possible

well, the network card gets pretty hot, so if you stay connected long enough it might work ;P
by - 2006-12-21 05:42:16
awesome, but...

Does it work on TA-82 mother boards? And if this proof of concept does indeed work, then will TA-82 motherboarded PSP's finnally have access to all Homebrew like 1.5?
by - 2006-12-21 05:48:53

and same happend to me with 2.50.. I upgraded to 2.80 and now i'm happy :P

This means one thing...

Sony is going to release a new firmware as soon as they realize where the exploit is - wasting their time and money when they could be working on ps1 games for us... dammit. I hope that something can be done for the TA-082 users

THANK YOU!!!
by - 2006-12-21 08:26:34
Actually...

In theory, this exploit could work on 2.81, as long as it hasn't been patched yet. However, we still need another exploit to run normal (user-mode) code before we can use this, but it does mean that once a user-mode exploit is found for 2.81, there's a high chance that we can run kernel-mode homebrew (like downgraders) on 2.81 too.
by - 2006-12-21 08:28:26
No

About a 1 in 9999999999999 chance (unless you are an idiot) There isn't really much to see though
by - 2006-12-21 08:30:55
YOU ARE AN IDIOT

I didn't buy my psp for homebrew or launching isos from the mem stick its just a cool addition, I would much rather watch movies and play my legally obtained games
by - 2006-12-21 08:34:13
Dont hate sony

So, if you ran sony you would let people downgrade and steal your games by downloading them. That makes sense you would only lose hundreds of millions of dollars.
by - 2006-12-21 08:36:13
?

How does it run better??????? It just does one task, what does it only get half of the kernel file or something????????
by - 2006-12-21 08:55:29
YAY!

Thanks guys!!!
by - 2006-12-21 08:59:24
motherboard?

i'm a noob....would a downgrader work on all motherboards?
by - 2006-12-21 09:07:57
yes

I'm not a dev so I'm not sure about it but I think it will work on all motherboards, the problem lies in that TA-82 can't run the 1.50 fw, probably you can "softdown" to 2.50 or something where the tiff-exploit is more stable (maybe, I haven't tried) and you will be able to run kernel-mode applications from the eLoader
by - 2006-12-21 09:13:30
F_U_C_King hell

by the time u been reading dis i ll be dead on the flour with a bullet in my head i wasted my psp by upgradin 2.81 to play gta vice city :{
by - 2006-12-21 09:17:00
Retarded > You

I cannot even begin to translate your idiotic babble... You should have "baught" your PSP at a more reputable establishment, where they price their goods "proporly" !!! HAHHAHA! 1st + Theres no way you ran a "proof of concept" kernel mode app on your 2.82 PSP 2nd + This is the anniversary of Roe vs. Wade...your momma should have taken advantage! OH SNAP! FACE!!!!!
by - 2006-12-21 09:19:34
...

sony murders people by putting rootkits in their minds... I hope you aren't serious about it, if you just wait a few months I'm sure someone will find a crack in 3.0x or something and as they say the security hole they are exploiting here might not be fixed there, which means a downgrader in no-time
by - 2006-12-21 10:10:06
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEH

YEEEEEEEEEH I AM SO HAPPY
by - 2006-12-21 10:20:40
.

Fanjita has said this will run on firmwares 2.81-3.02! The only problem is, we need an exploit to load the code!
by Devil Outlaw - 2006-12-21 10:22:08
Soon...hopefully

A couple more months and (hopefully) there will be a downgrader. This should be good.
by - 2006-12-21 10:26:11

YO DATZ SIK SO THEREZ DOWNGRADER COMMIN SOON!??!?!?!??!?!!!! dat shytz next level!! Good Job!
by - 2006-12-21 10:39:31
..

2.71 is the highest downgradable firmware for now until they come out with a downgrader for 2.80
by - 2006-12-21 10:45:03
...

Just downgrade to 1.5, then upgrade to 2.71SE. Then you can get 1.0 OR 1.5 style homebrew, with full verything!
by - 2006-12-21 10:47:00
...

Its not suposed to work on 2.82 n00b!
by - 2006-12-21 11:02:00
noobs...

you shouldn't have said that... noobs will probably just read the first line and live with false believes, and in worst case upgrade because they think they can just downgrade later

nice hacking , F$#K S@ny

sweet i HAD a 2.80 but i bricked it 3 days ago... im SOOOOOOO MAD
by - 2006-12-21 12:23:37
lol

the downgrader is gunna take some time guys, like 1-2 months. Be patient, it wont come out tommarow.
by - 2006-12-21 12:54:36
why downgrade

There is no reason to downgrade if 2.80 now has kernel that means 2.71 users can now just upgrade, well of course after the great hombrewers do their thing. And downgrading at this point makes no since at all cause everything 1.5 can do 2.71 can do and more, so wouldn't 2.80 have the same effect. Anyways don't really know don't have 1.5.
by - 2006-12-21 13:03:18
yay

YAY this is really good work now plz make a downgrader or something around Christmas mgs po is tempting me to upgrade so much when i open it on christmas i might upgrade damn sum1 help me resist the upgrade.ahhh.NICE WORK

havent u heard of disk swapping its easy i do it to play vcs and mgspops put in a 2.8 or lower umd press x as if u were going to the game but when the psp sign appears switch it for vcs and wola u will be able to play without upgrading

probobly ain't got nut hair yet. the stop guy i mean
by - 2006-12-21 17:48:21
Why they only make "manual" installers

The reason the devs don't release a complete downgrader with 1.50 dump is because it's illegal, which means sony would sue them. Letting us find the dump or make it ourselves is a way of protecting the homebrew community. So my recommendation is that you make sure to read the readme properly.
by - 2006-12-21 18:03:56
this is good i like

i see, Mr. Not logged in thnx sir?

I just ripped apart the umd and it won't run. What firmware? blaa blaa blaa. Kernal mode; can't wait to run dev and 1.5 for the first time.

.

How can you brick a 2.80 with only user mode homebrew? did you throw it at a wall or something?
by - 2006-12-22 01:04:00
probably they won't

Most of the noobs that get to downgrade now (or soon anyhow) will most likely never upgrade to anything officiall again, the problem is the new noobs that haven't experienced this. I for example didn't know sony were stopping homebrewing when I got mine so I fell for the first locoroco demo.. And now with christmas there will probably be thousands of new noobs...
by - 2006-12-22 01:08:44
PoC

This app is a PoC - Proof of Concept that shows that kernel-mode is acheived, and with that kernel mode they(Fanjita and the other great devs) are now working on a downgrader (rumored but why wouldn't they?)

HACK IDEA NO ONE SEEMS TO TRY....

I'm just a duck who flew south for the winter, but why doesn't anyone try and hack the methoud sony uses to allow you to update the psp legitamately.. obviously there is some sort of opening there- the PSP cant know what the next update has, so there is some sort of flexability in that isn't there? If you can just trick the psp into thinking that an update is legit (thru a laptop adhoc connect or something..) then you should be able to send the file right into the psp eh? there HAS to be some sort of way, how does sony update the psp so easily? but what to I know, I updated to 2.82, guess I'll have to go back to pooping on peoples heads for a while

yo when i bought my new psp a long time ago it was 2.50 at the start, now its 2.80 . what im trying to ask here is if they really make a downgrader for 2.80 to 1.5 or whatever, could i still downgrade to 1.5 if i had my new psp at 2.50? or did i had to buy a psp that was 1.5 at the start?
