PS3 Cracked
The first successful jailbreak iPhone hacker says he has pulled a surprise Modding, this time penetrating the previously impervious PlayStation 3 games console.
The 20 years hack George Hotz aka geohot is significant because the PS3 is the only game console that had not been injured, although the market for more than three years. The trick, significantly expand the capabilities of the box from his full functioning versions of Linux and a wide range of games that are currently prohibited. The hardware and software designers told El Reg he needed to develop five weeks, the hack with a combination of changes to the hardware and software console.
"Basically, I have hardware can be used to open a small hole and then used software to make the hole the size of the system to full read / write," he said in an interview. "At that time, even if the system does not work, I have a great power. I can do to their system, what I want to make."
The first three weeks were spent Access Memory direct attack on the console. He then to his current approach to the implementation of software-only approaches were insufficient.
A dropout of the Rochester Institute of Technology, said geohot there was a decline to give details on Sony to avoid introducing changes that hinder the changes. But a blog post announcing the implementation of the clarified hack gives the user unprecedented control over their systems.
"I read / write the entire memory system, and access to high voltage processor level" geohot he wrote. "In other words, I recorded the PS3."
The trick to PS3 user first runs full versions of Linux, have the full access to the system and Central Processing Unit Graphics Processing Units. This will greatly expand the types of things users can do with the console. For starters, you could use the model to emulators that will play PS2 games on the computer running, which strictly prohibited Sony. It would also programs such as VLC media player to more robust version. The hack also opens the door to pirated games on consoles, although geohot said it was an activity in pursuit, he is not interested.
Geohot said he has no plans to release reliable software used to unlock the box until you can do more. Currently takes about 15 minutes to run, and often no longer work properly. "If I posted what I have now, it would be too bored with people," he said.
He praised the PS3 as a "system secure enough", which had penetrated much more difficult than many hardware hack.
"One of the most important things that Sony has taken the whole of the security right was at one time," he said. "From day one, the PS3 is safe."
In contrast, the anti-piracy iPhone over time have been implemented, which could win him to important insights into the overall design to defeat him the changes that were introduced later helped.
"If the law has now been released as an iPhone, it would be much harder to crack for the people," he said. "With the iPhone, when a new version comes out, we can immediately decipher, because we use them for the previous version."
A native of Glen Rock, New Jersey, rose to prominence geohot in 2007 at the age of 17 when he first hack to make the iPhone developed on networks other than AT & T's work. Even after Apple introduced some changes to re-enter the iron fist of the Apple device, geohot measures developed newer jailbreak, unleashing an endless cycle of hacks and counter hacks.
While the Xbox hacks and the iPhone has on the living community of developers to release their own applications led modded devices, said the challenge of overcoming the security geohot overshaddows these results more practical.
