libtiff Vulnerability gives hope for a new GTA-less PSP Exploit!

PSP ExploitOur PSP forums have been abuzz lately with the talk of a possible new exploit centered around a libtiff vulnerability. Discussion started in our Developer's Dungeon when a message was relayed from NOPx86 stating that he'd managed to crash the PSP using this method. As those of you who follow these things know, a crash doesn't always mean an open door to an exploit.

But after a cumulative 60 hours of work and research put in by Skylark and psp250 (with a little help from Fanjita), they can confirm that NOPx86's method is indeed valid and opens the door for a new exploit. They have confirmed that it will work on 2.0 and 2.01 PSP's, and could potentially work on firmware as high as 2.80 - although at this moment, this is unconfirmed.

But even if this only works on lower firmwares, it will usher in the age of GTA-less homebrew for 2.01+ PSP's, which will be a welcome change for homebrew enthusiasts.

Work and research on applying this exploit into a publicly usable form will take some time, and it will take even more time to put this to use on PSP's with higher firmware, but there definitely are possibilities. As always, we'll keep you up to date on this developing story as soon as more information becomes available.

Feel free to check out the two topics on our forums discussing this latest breakthrough - please note that while the Developer Dungeon can be read by all registered users, only developers may post there so they can work without user interruption.

I have 2.6 and in a cuple days I'm getting my 1 Gig memory stick, I'm just to lazy to downgrade to 1.5 and use devhook, cuz I like to have my atrac 3 plus music and my browser handy [and I'm a bit affraid to be honest] so this means great news to me

# Don't be scared #10Guest 2006-08-21 14:41
I too was worried about using DevHook but it works magically like a charm. You can run all of your favorite homebrew, and with a simple press of a button, your PSP functions as a true 2.71 with the web browser, RSS audio, ATRAC, AVC, Location Free, and everything fully intact. Press a button again and your PSP reverts back to 1.50. Good stuff. I just wish there was 2.80 support.



I look forward to advancements in this new exploit. My 2.80 PSP would love to play some NesterJ Wi-Fi with my 1.50 PSP.

OMG! If this works on 2.80, i promise never to upgrade to anymore firmware updates....whatever "great features" that sony might put on the next update is nothing like the ability to use your PSP as everything from a remote to a N-64 Emulator....So i'm praying that the LIBTIFF exploit will work at least partially on 2.80.

# 3.0? screw thatthe_darkside_986 2006-08-21 16:50
What's with all the excitement over 3.0 and its falsely so-called "emulator" which will be nothing more than ports of ps1 games that will cost money to buy even if one already owns that game... and so what if the PSP 3.0 can control the PS3, a system that many people won't buy at release day because of the price. The homebrew community has added wayyy more functionality to 1.5 PSP's than Sony has to 2.7+ PSP's. I guess that shows how much Sony really cares about their customers. But that's old news lol.



I doubt it's a big deal if Sony finds out about this. If they do, we'll find another exploit in their higher firmwares. It's a fair game as long as Sony doesn't play dirty and try to sue over it.

wow,i cant wait to see edison carters cheat device on firmware 2.80, gta:lcs is great,and so i used it pretty much all the time until i updated my psp without knowing anything about the exploit disabled,i think this could really get more people onto their psps again,i know i will,i knew that someone would crack the V2.71+ security,and with this,it means we can go into multiplayer and float on away with the water level at whatever you want,man,i loved the cheatdevice,and i still do,long live the cheatdevice!

I love how all 2.8ers want a downgrader. I mean come on, why would you be dumb enough to upgrade. It's not like anywhere sells psps with the fw already. You guys are idiots!

# For god's sakeGuest 2006-08-22 03:14
Okay so 2.8'ers may have ether upgraded on purpose or unwittingly, but theres no need to burn them. Jeez, they're only human just like you are apparently...



Everyone deserves a second chance, or a third/forth in some cases. Some people would have upgraded during the homebrew 'slump' there was a while ago and slowly gone up through the firmwares through lack of faith in the appearence of downgraders/exploits.



Now there's loads more great homebrew proggies out there (N64 emu on it way, almost full speed GBA emu just popped up, new version of IRshell and new devhook versions).



So stop the flaming all you sexually confused people...

# This is for all the PSP hackers out there.Guest 2006-08-22 14:01
I think it's amazing how you guys are able to find exploits, and use them to your advantage to make things like downgraders. I'm sure you all know that Sony watches all PSP news websites. As soon as Sony sees this article, they will try to patch this exploit for the future 3.0 update. I think you guys that make downgraders shouldn't release the source code or even describe how the exploit works. Even if nothing comes out of this new exploit any time soon, Sony WILL still try to patch it. If a downgrader IS made any time soon, you guys should keep the source code, and other important information a secret, and just release the actual downgrader application. This is just a suggestion, and i'm sure you guys probably don't care.

I updated to 2.8 earlier on and it doesn't look much different to 2.71 really. I flashed my Psp back to 1.5 now so it doesn't really matter. I have to say I hope something comes out of this exploit, it will be great. Either that or hopefully Epsilon will release a compatible 3.0 version so I can have the features of 1.5 on 3.0 along with the Ps1 emulator.

number 84, sony can make homebrew games for psp because the files are signed by sony, and it would be almost IMPOSSIBLE to get the signature code. 1.0 is the only FW that can run code that is unsigned.

# Crash?Guest 2006-08-23 02:30
when you guys say "crash" do u mean it bricks, it turns off as soon as u run it, or it freezes and turns off after about 10 secs?

# should have waitedGuest 2006-08-23 06:05
should have waited a month for when the psp camera and gps came out to say anything, cuz now they'll patch it up. I f their going to come out with these applications, they HAVE to upgrade the firmware, but too late.

They should have shut up about this til 3.0 came out, now that it is public, sony will block it. They could have had it fully ready by then and then gone HA HA HA, we beat you the day 3.0 came out, now we can enjoy all the cool features plus homebrew. But NOOOOOOOOOO.

Now that these very highly talented coders have found an explot similar to overflow.tiff, It might now be very long before I can finally play all the cool new emulators that have been developed since I've upgraded to 2.80.

# sounds goodGuest 2006-09-03 15:46
There is alot of talk,And there is always people calling people names and such..The way that I see it HB work is great and those who have upgraded to v2.80 I dont see anything wrong with it.ya just half to wait for HB to cach up :).just because it took a long time for me 2 relize what HB can truly do I have upgraded to v2.80 I must say tho that that version was much better than 2.60..my main reason for typing this is the people that are bashing noobs or people that have upgraded ya need to get a life.1st off you have not even created the programs so what is giving you the right 2 bash anyone 2nd HB is not truly made 2 steel money from sony or should I say the creator of a game.Is made in hopes that it will run better than the original..what Im trying 2 say is load time on umd games suck depending on the game being able 2 play it off of the duo can and should make it run faster

pluse it make it easyer 2 swich from playing games on the psp.better than always having 2 swich umd.3rd sence most games do not have demos it is nice 2 actualy be able 2 test out the game befor buying.last to say Those that have mad the psp HB U truly rock You all have done a great job and Im sure there is a lot more to come.People like U deserve the props a million times over. I do relize that post pages are made to make the programs better by getting ideas and learning where there might be a problome bug or what ever .. so If any HB creator R reading this will there be a way 2 zip compress any movie/umd a lot smaller and play it I would like 2 see something a little smaller than mpg4 i know u can cut out the ends of a movie and start it right in the begining of a movie but 2 be honest I would like 2 keep it hole just have it smaller than 600 to 700mb..well this is all my 2 cence I can put in with a small crazzy idia let me know what ya thinks thanks alot
