Has the Nintendo 3DS been hacked?

[Shinji]

The secret is on the reflection of the 3D's screens.

How to train your dragon?

I see this as a "prepare to be amazed" release of info...or the 3DS version of the failbreak. Only time will tell and I'm not holding my breath, it will come out when it comes out

exploit page has been updated with this

"SD card extdata and SD savegames can't be attacked without the console-unique movable.sed"

How convenient that I visited today just to see this piece of news. Holding off my purchase of a 3DS until I can get its region lock totally removed, as I like to get games from anywhere I'd like and whenever I'd like Looking forward to more info. (didn't read the whole thread though)

the exploit is a buffer overflow
other than that nothing

Thats a lot since its a buffer overflow that means it will be an easy/practical Fashion for homebrew, which is what everyone is waiting for some time,since it will allow homebrewing it will also kill the region lock,and yes play 3DS game files.

well that all takes time to code

Indeed it would take a lot of time , about 6 months or so.

Wating is the best thing we can do unless some of the members here has some good programing experience it would be nice if they could help.

Sorry to be dumb here, but existing codes cant be utilized with adaptations, to save work hours?

What do you mean by "adaptations" ?

I thought of insted of creating a new emulator, port a linux emulator for example, or made linux work, so many linux applications will be compatible (just used linux and emulators as example, but maybe it applies to other shit). This wont help with backup loaders or region locks, but it will help with many homebrew apps (IF i'm not telling bullshit)

Huh? You do realise that the nature of the exploit (i.e. buffer overflow) is not related to any of that stuff, right?

 

[Transdude1996]

So it'll possibly be another 6 months until we are able to do anything, okay. We've waited this long, so where is the problem with waiting a little bit more?

 

[Foxi4]

As a responce to my previous post, I read further and Gamefaqs users just see it is a Photoshop pic or just a DS hack. I believe that we're safe.

Oh c'mon... You just know you're knocking on the wrong door...

What makes you think that a usermode exploit will allow you any kind of system-level access for disabling the region lock or playing 3DS dumps?

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD. Don't say what game it is until I have enough money to buy said exploitable game

It's a game on a cart. It doesn't matter when you buy it since I highly doubt Nintendo would recall and update all the said games from around the world just to prevent a hack. Just buy it new and buy a 3DS with the current or previous firmware
