UPDATE COBRA v8.01 Released (via habib)COBRA 8.01: small version increment, massive overhaul
- Added support for dynamic memory payloads, 5 of them can be started from "/dev_hdd0/boot_plugins_kernel.txt"
- toolchain updated to support dynamic address loading.
- For applications, you can also mount em, and unmount em separately
his poc will read payload.bin from usb000, execute it and write memory residence location in file in hdd0/residence and then unloads the plugin.
alternatively you can copy payload.bin and boot_plugins_kernel.txt in hdd0, restart and voila!
this is true dynamic loading, just like prx!
src of payload.bin is included with the cfw download
ofcourse safety features are included, plugins wont load till vsh appear, you can go to recovery mode, rebuild database to remove the boot_plugins_kernel.txt
in a program, with residence memory location acquired, one can send arguments to the payload using syscall 15
