(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); On Christmas, the massive Distributed Denial of Service (****) attack from the notorious hacking group Lizard Squad knocked Sony’s PlayStation Network and Microsoft’s Xbox Live offline, but as if it wasn't the end of disaster for Microsoft.

This time it isn't a case of services being taken down — instead, the software development kit (SDK) for the Xbox Live is being freely circulated over the Internet. Another group calling itself H4LT has apparently managed to leak the Microsoft’s official Xbox One developer SDK, potentially opening the door for homemade applications and allowing unapproved developers to create unofficial software for the system.
The group announced the Xbox One leak via its official Twitter account, and also provided some screenshots of the November’s release of the Durango XDK (Xbox Development Kit) files, including the accompanying development tools, device firmware and its documentation.



H4LT group states noble reasons for posting the SDK — in order to allow greater "creativity and research... towards homebrew applications" on the console.
The group offered the following explanation when interviewed by TechGame via a direct message, that exactly why they decided to leak the XDK:
"We leaked it to the community because if something is shared then.. progress is achieved faster than alone. Something kept between us will not achieve anything. Share it with the community = creativity and research. Shared is how it should be. The SDK will basically allow the community to reverse and open doors towards homebrew applications being present on the Xbox One."

wow interesting can you post the source to there twitter or the files ?

So I don't get it, right now what could it actually do to your console?

Oh okay, so there isn't much point in getting it then lol

Not until someone finds an exploit to allow the actual programs to run.

I believe it took a while for the first exploit on 360 so I'm not holding my breath, Microsoft have probably learnt from their previous mistakes.

I was reading up on the internet, in a chat room a hacker was saying he has already figured how to run home brew on the console and to expect alot coming for xbone modding in the next few months

Lol. It's funny how I have to pay 280$ for a Jailbroken PS3 and now I have to get a job and prepare to buy a modded Xbox One.

I cant wait :-) :-)

shit is old nothing is gonna come from this
