Según parece, los hackers de 24C3 ("24th Annual Chaos Communication Congress") han conseguido descifrar la clave de los juegos de Wii originales, lo han hecho capturando paquetes de datos que llevaban las claves.
The guys over at 24C3 just demoed a Wii hack that is set to provide native wii homebrew in the near future (not running in GC mode, and with full access to all the Wii hardware!). They were able to find encryption and decryption keys by doing full memory dumps at runtime over a custom serial interface. Using these keys, they were able to create a Wii ‘game’ that ran their own code (their demo happened to show live sensor/Wiimote information, amongst a few other things).
Ha salido una pequeña actualizacion de la noticia:
PSX-Scene escribió:xt5 and CyBeR have provided WiiNewz with more information coming out of the 24C3 conference...
- They got the wii keys, and we could use them without hacking our wii again. - This hack requires a drive modchip to execute the code. - There is not any tool to sign the code, but it's coming soon. - They are working to access to the SD thought EXI. - There is not any stack homebrew for bluetooth - A linux port for Wii will be released easily.
Por lo que dice, dentro de poco seguramente exista un port de linux para wii. Ademas, el poder firmar el codigo, permitira facilitar mucho la carga de ejecutables.
