Geohotz Hacks PS3
Sony’s playstation Ps3 get hacked after 3 years. The hack was developed by who can only be describe a a whiz kid. George Hotz, aka “GeoHot” first entered the hacking scene at the age of 17, he gained much notoriety with the first Iphone hack known as JailBreak.
Goehotz says on his blog
“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 hacker claims to have only taken 5 weeks to complete the hack. These are bold statements that we think can be backed up by his previous credibility.
In a report to the BBC he divulges much information on the Ps3 hack.
he reports that the the nature of the PS3 hack will make it very hard for Sony to stop, however he has still not released the hack publicly as he fears Sony will Start a firmware update War against the PS3 hack.
“Mr Hotz said that the nature of his PS3 hack means that Sony may have difficulty patching the exploit.”
He also reported to the BBC that the hack was almost all software based and that he had to find workaround due to the fact that he could not access the systems memory.
“He admitted that he had not managed to hack the whole system, including the protected memory, but had worked out ways to trick the console into doing what he wanted”
For now we will have to keep you posted.
