11.3.0 - The fix (not really!):
Nintendo added a flag under Process9 which, when set, triggers a panic on SAFE_MODE launch. This flag is set when certain titles are launched, ensuring that SAFE_MODE can only be launched early in the boot process.

However, this is incredibly easy to circumvate since you can just relaunch NATIVE_FIRM and the flag will be reset. Therefore, all we need to do to allow 11.3 support is to relaunch NATIVE_FIRM before performing the attack.

Wow. Nintendo fucking suck at exploit patching.

Congrats to the dev for circumventing the "patch".

God help the Switch if that's cracked open in the near future then.

That's obviously their "new favourite child" in the Nintendo family, but it'll still suffer from the Swiss cheese of exploits, waiting to be discovered and used just like it is for the 3DS.
