Wii menu TP-hack-killer analysis

June 21st, 2008, 20:10 Posted By: wraggster

Some missed news while i was away from bushing:

Okay, I’ve spent a little bit of time trying to reconstruct the C code used to build the channel from my disassembler. The full IDA Pro output for those funcs is here: http://static.hackmii.com/verifyzelda.html.

Below, you’ll find my C version. I’ve tried to make it function exactly like the one in the new system menu. Hopefully I did a good job, because I’d like to see people try to find bug in this that could lead to an exploit. There are at least two here, which we used in combination; can you find any more?

Don’t worry, I’ll give the answers if nobody gets them
