CELL exploit found (PS3 CPU)

    Well, an anonymous hacker has well & truly opened the floodgates! An exploit has been found in the CELL architecture (PS3 CPU) which allows for a similar stack overflow that the 3.41 exploit caused. Nothing released as of yet, but the exploit is shown in the link working & glitching OFW 3.60, allowing the user to inject code (this part is speeded up) & ultimately jailbreak the firmware. I suspect this is either Math releasing his exploit anonymously, or another hacker has found the same exploit that Math did.

    The kicker about this is the exploit is in the CPU architecture, & is unfixable by software. Read it & weep guys

    Edit - Link seems to be down no doubt due to traffic, keep checking.

    Anonymous hacker... hmmm, imagine if that was the truth and Sony started to look for "anonymous" hacker. Sony law department sending request to every ftp server admin in the world to reveal personal details of "anonymous" user account on their server.

    but I have to say you got me there EN. good one.
