The hacker Kakarotoks became world famous by being the first to offer a custom firmware to play pirated games on PlayStation 3, following the work of the equally famous GeoHotz who had managed to decrypt the secure keys used to run the code (signed or not).
Yet Kakarotoks admits that Sony has found a solution to hack the PS3 unexpected deemed inviolable, and speaks of "heroic rescue" by the firm in Tokyo.
According to him, Sony has proceeded in three steps to rectify the situation:
- Step 1: Securing the firmware update 3.56
- Step 2: Securing the decryption of data when installing a firmware update in the 3.60
- Step 3: Securing the PSN with a change of protocol PSN since the launch of version 3.6x
To those who thought that Sony could address this flaw, since it was due to a hardware problem, Kakarotoks states: "a hardware fault can often be solved in software."
Sony had removed the loaders used by hackers, and have found a way to bypass metldr necessary to hack the console.
More surprising still, Kakarotoks said he will not try to break the 3.60 firmware, and will stay on his custom firmware 3.55: "The 3.55 was very good, and those who love the homebrew as I remain in this version. What we I should have done so far, those who do it should not update their console ... Everyone will find his account. "
He ended by warning the community of hackers do not need to try to convince him to resume his work of undermining: "Oh, and before you flooder me .... It will not be me! Indeed , does not interest me more than that to break the PS3, I'm happy with what we've done. I do not work above! ".
Finally, Sony has done: the manufacturer has found a way to security issues on the PS3. The games that come out in April will all require the installation of firmware 3.60, putting an end to an issue that stirred the Playstation community for 6 months. Good news.
