Thanks for the news!

is there a possibility that we can use the EBOOT.pbp that they provided to trick the psp into booting homebrew programs?

What im curious about is, if they are releasing a patch to fix security problems for 1.5, that means there has to be a exploit in the firmware somewhere right?

**narrowband** · 05-19-2005

If the firmware was modified just to fill a secuity hole, then theoretically cant someone compare both firmware versions and search for the difference in hopes for an exploit.. or at least a hint of where the vulnerability is?

**blanc** · 05-19-2005

Its encypted...but I suspect they did that with 1.0 with the jap update.

**ckinni** · 05-19-2005

Its exactly what they did with the jp 1.5 -> 1.51 update.

**skyewing** · 05-19-2005

Errrr, the 1.5 firmware is the exact same firmware that the us psps were shipped with... No ones even hacked 1.5 yet, so why would they release another update for a firmware that was updated with security in mind anywaz?

**DaShiZNiT** · 05-19-2005

maybe they hacked it, and realised somone else would too, eventually.....
