Kernel Exploit

Unpatched: To be disclosed.

Leakage of PTCH body plaintext over SPI on all BGA SYSCONs

When reading the body via the EEPROM read command, in all cases, the MISO of the SPI will leak the plaintext of the PTCH body to someone who might be interacting with the EEPROM interface. Note that this ONLY happens when SC interacts with patch body and some specific areas.

Examples

Lv2 sys_fs_mount stack overflow

Stack buffer overflow with required priveleges when passing a length greater than 10. It now checks for length less than or equal to 10. If larger than 10, the length gets set to 10.

Patched: sometime before 4.40 (only fw I checked)

RSX Syscall bug

In most syscalls sony reduces a pointer to 32 bits and would use a special function to write to that pointer.
however, in certain rsx syscalls, sony forgot about it, allowing the attacker to write to any part of lv2 memory.

Patched: 4.40

CTR bugs on SELFs (and ebootroms maybe?)

http://crypto.stackexchange.com/questions/14628/why-do-we-use-xts-over-ctr-for-disk-encryption CTR bugs on SELFs

Patched: since Vita pre-retail 0.9.9.6 (SELFs, should match with ps3 firmware at release date), unknown (ebootroms)

PARAM.SFO stack-based buffer overflow

http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2013/May/113

Patched: since 2012-05-01 (4.40 and later)

Proof of Concept

Unsigned code can be added to the PARAM.SFO because the console does not recognize special characters

Working on 4.31, Patched: since 2012-05-01 (4.40 and later)
