Fascinating times we live in, when "the last hypervisor bug" in what is presumably one of the most hardened pieces of consumer hardware can be found by "noobs" and "slop kiddies".
- NietTim 16d agoMakes you wonder if it really was "noobs" and "slop kiddies" that found it.
- Catloafdev 16d agoNo, it doesn't. Nobody would go do this just to report it to Sony for a few pennies. That is a non-existent motivation for people in the know, who understand the opportunity cost.
- ChrisRR 16d agoUnless they didn't want to actually make money from anything nefarious, and the bounty was more than just "a few pennies"
- oridb 16d agoWell, sure, the same way that I can "cook" a three michelin star meal by going out to eat at the French Laundry. It's just boring. And the people that crow about "their" accomplishments are tiresome.
- zorkonator 16d agoHypervisor bugs are boring? Maybe to you.
- oridb 16d agoHiring someone else to find them is boring as hell. If you only care about being spoonfed results, I don't think there's much to talk about.
- gosub100 16d agoI say it's only because LLMs came out after the PS5 was developed. Presumably, future generations of hw (if there are any) will use the same methods to harden the attack surface. Good ole cat and mouse.
