Team N00bz on The Sparta Exploit

greg | January 8, 2009

It is indeed exploit fever season, and the remedy — more N00bz! That’s right — the N00bz have combined forces with MaTiAz and FreePlay to help further expand on the recent “Sparta” (GripShift) exploit. The plan:

Our initial focus will be to make it easier to run standard homebrew via this exploit, by adapting eloader to it. This will be restricted purely to user-mode homebrew, since there is currently no public kernel-mode exploit that could be used here, and compatibility is likely to be patchy due to the security measures in the later firmwares which make determining all the syscalls almost impossible. Still, you can expect that at least some emulators and other popular pure user-mode homebrew will run.

So with that said, don’t get too excited for a downgrader solution yet. In the case of someone discovering a method to bust kernel mode wide open, then downgrading via Sparta could very well be possible.

Looks like cracking the 3000 is right around the corner. Best of luck on it.

I still think the sparta exploit was a accident. i know its a buffer flow thing like on the Wii but seriously? you had to pick sparta? lol i thing matiz was bored and said “hmm lets add spartaaaaaaa to random game profiles”

That’s how you find a buffer overflow. You put really long strings in place of short ones and see if the program crashes.

Keep it up N00bz MaTiAz and FreePlay
(I do believe that your main focus should be kernel access not hombrew because kernel access leads to homebrew but its kewl you think big…)

Any chance of porting CWCheats for this exploit? I’d do it myself, but I can’t code worth a damn.

Thats a plugin, not homebrew, and its a lame plugin at that… Learn to play your games, not cheat… Noob

Comment by Twyst

I play my games, then I cheat them to see what’s possible. Besides, there’s little difference between a plugin and a homebrew game, as that’s the hope to finally hack the 3000 with this exploit.

It’s a homebrew plugin, and there are far more uses for codes than cheating. Anyway I imagine it needs kernel access, so it won’t be able to work.

Well, here’s hoping that this exploit gets us kernel access. I imagine it’s just a matter of digging. This exploit lets someone write another exploit that shows that mysterious IPL that everyone wants.

I have a question, could it be possible to make a program that runs with this that all it is is that it tells your psp to run a downgrader somewhere else on your memory stick or something that would normaly require kernal made or would it not run the second program because it would be cool if you could run any program b simply making a proram that the psp CAN run and allthat program does is tell the psp to run the real program. someone please answer my question because also if its possible then it would also be awsome that I came up with the idea

Those who don’t own a PSP 3000 yet must go and get it already.

Nice to see N00bz back on the scene. Havent seen them since they beat sony to skype with furikup, and that was exactly a year ago! They released the hen/eloader/downgraders for gta and lumines, so i think if anyone can do it for gripshift on the 3000, they can! Go Team N00bz!
