Changing the name about svchax HOT 14 OPEN

I wonder why @aliaspider doesn't close this useless issue :P

from svchax.

@idgrepthat Actually, he never created anything... as this is in the 32c3. And this is meant to be used as a "library".

from svchax.

memchunkhax2 was written from scratch. "svchax" (or whatever this will be called) is based on memchunkhax2 and libkhax, as it reuses some parts of these.

And I'm not saying that he shouldn't get recognition, but that it was discovered and publicly explained by derrek at the 32c3, and it was exploited by aliaspider.

OMG who cares. it's used to gain kernel access. end of story.

from svchax.

This has devolved to a useless discussion about semantics and ethics.
I'm just going to shut up and let people contribute without anymore of this noise.

from svchax.

Sure. But I just want this to be renamed because the name is pretty confusing. It would be nice to keep "self-explanatory" names.

from svchax.

It should be called memchunkhax2.1 or something like that

from svchax.

It exploits a vulnerability in the 3ds to gain higher privileges. It's a hack.
As to whether it's a good name or semantically correct... that's up for discussion (I don't think it is).

But when you create something I think you should be able to name it as you please.

from svchax.

You've got to be kidding me...
Turning a discussion into a working exploit isn't "doing nothing".
If he did nothing, then 10.6 was already kexploited. Nonsense.

He created something, he gets to name something. Doesn't need our permission whether it's a library or not.

Bad kitty.

from svchax.

Creating =/= exploiting/writing code based on the 32c3 talk and based on libkhax/memchunkhax2 source code.

from svchax.

Everything is based on something. Svchax is based on memchunkhax2 is based on memchunkhax1 is based on Gateway is based on 3dbrew.

Seriously, you could go back to Dennis Ritchie, Charles Babbage, or their mothers if you want to get exact about credits. Allow people to get recognition if they contribute something.

from svchax.

memchunkhax3 or memchunkhax2+ perhaps

from svchax.

@Mrrraou @aliaspider Think it will be good if it is forked from memchunkhax 2.

from svchax.

@aliaspider Rename this repo and close this **** issues XD
