Evo čini se da ni PS3 više nije nedodirljiv

George Hotz, aka Geohot, known for creating jailbreaking/unlocking tools for the iPhone and iPod touch, claims to have hacked the Playstation 3.

The Playstation 3 has been relatively safe and secure for the past 3 years but over the last 5 weeks Geohot has opened up the beast, learned its inner workings and now claims to have full read/write ability to the entire system memory.

“I have read/write access to the entire system memory, and HV level access to the processor. In other words, I have hacked the PS3. The rest is just software. And reversing. I have a lot of reversing ahead of me, as I now have dumps of LV0 and LV1. I’ve also dumped the NAND without removing it or a modchip.”

With lots of reverse engineering ahead of him Geohot isn’t telling anyone exactly how his hack works, keeping his hand close to his chest while he completes his work, ensuring that Sony won’t release firmware updates to hamper his progress.
