Physical Game Card Exploit for PS_VITA

Post by nycshane »

I apologize if this question has been answered already or is a silly one… but has anyone seen an exploit for a PHYSICAL game card, and not something from the PSN Playstation Store (game as a download) OTA ?

No and I've never heard any news of anyone trying to hack the Vita's cards other than taking them apart to see what was inside

That would be a Vita hack, and the only publicly "known" one was yifanlu's patched user mode exploit. And no one other than (presumably) some trusted devs even knew where that exploit was: it is equally likely that it was in some random part of the Vita firmware like music, video/pictures, or the communications modules. (whether USB[CMA] or Wifi)

So it's possible that someone has the knowledge to discover such a hack, but there isn't any indication that the knowledge exists within the community. Or if it does it is nowhere near release or actual utility.

If anyone is actively looking for user-mode exploits or developing a pinout/custom PS VITA card (I understand it's not a standard SD card, has different timing/etc). hmu, pm is ok.
