Download: Libtiff Exploit for Firmware 5.50
*Original article posted May 12, 2009 at 03:02PM
*Update* If you, like some of us, were also wondering why wololo didn't post this on his Wagic blog, then get this: the exploit/crash file isn't really his. From his website, here's his official statement to clarify the matter (emphasis by wololo):
I saw today a buzz on various websites about a youtube video showing a tiff file crashing OFW 5.50, apparently a file created by me.
I am not directly related to this video.
I havenÂ’t looked at the file yet, but it is possible that this is an OLD file I created a while ago and which has proven to be unexploitable beyond firmware 4.20. See here and here (note how old these posts are)
There is also a possibility that someone else found a crash and decided to use my name in the file for some reason, but I find this highly unlikely.
So my official statement right now is the following: Not a fake, not an exploit, just a crash

BTW: I wonder how that is possible, I thought Sony completely blocked the tiff support?

Multiple buffer overflows have been found in Libtiff.[4][5][6] Some of these have also been used to execute unsigned code on the PlayStation Portable,[7] as well as run third party applications on older versions of the iPhone and iPod Touch

All these exploits are a waste if there is no iso/cso loader and if one has to reininstall hen everytime the psp shuts down, i dont know what all the excitement is about, just upgraded to 5.03 ofw and i still dont use it for anything, even the psptube is not worth it. Sorry i know many are hooked onto homebrews , but its like an INSULT to a psp to play crappy games made for consoles with way less configurations.

and if you judge games only by the way the look - i'm sorry for you, since you are missing out on so much.

I appreciate the effort in providing us news, but you seriously need to get on your game. This article is embarrassing to read when knowing the actual facts behind it.
