in linux the core model is there's system shit that's important to secure and then there's userland where users can do whatever they want and make a mess. this works well when the apps a user runs in userland are an extension of the user's will, but that is often not the case these days

So far it is a userland exploit only. They got access to the game files without encryption. Nand is still encrypted, so no actual jailbreak this time.

I worry about unifying the userland like this. imo there needs to be an option for weird nerds to fuck around with cool hardware and deck out our shit.

"request rejected by security scanning"
so you're not even allowed to put your own custom userland on your phone now?

okay big tech

exploit ta só em userland ainda e e eles são bem especificos, precisam de jogos q foram removidos do eshop instalado ou uma copia fisica de civilization VII. é questão de tempo pra acessarem kernel e bootloader, mas até lá ainda ta meio inviavel pra quem comprar um switch novo

there are many applications i run which are less an extension of my will and more like a thing acting of its own volition and merely hosted on my computer. there are various clunky ways to corral such programs but the basic model of the underlying system seems to be "that's all userland who cares"

wait i found your issue, the ring3> is userland, type exit and your talking directly to the kernel again :) the apps should be there

Plus, games that rely on newer firmware that use newer AES keys can't be played outside of the newer firmware, it's pretty much PS5-type of waiting for newer userland exploits to be found in newer firmware versions

PHP 8.6 adds a SortDirection enum and Time\Duration. They're tiny on purpose, & they replace 150+ incompatible userland versions.

even ignoring the kernel level aspects of this, it also runs as a privileged daemon that has access to all of userland anyways. this certainly further normalizes invasive anti-cheat.
