some wierd references in mcore.elf
 

hi i was examin the mcore.elf file from devflash 3.55

and there are some wierd references all about encryption.

also alot off references too to http adresses some of those adresses or locked forbidden but have found some any way.


there is nothing on the wiki about the mcore.elf file so wanna hear your point of what it may be







scrool little to the right, then you can see the strings



i found this pastie that have all the same references wierd

http://pastie.org/3119152/wrap

so what does this file do ?

some references to W3 soap documentation and (this looks interesting) references to intertrust's octopus DRM, and to its VM that is called plankton. My guess is that PS3 is running a VM to execute webservices, maybe?

well some off the links is just pure xml.

but seems interesting, and there seems to be a secretkey.

/dev_usb
/dev_sd
/dev_ms
/dev_hdd1
/dev_hdd0/drm/marlin
/dev_hdd0
/dev_hdd0
/dev_cf
/app_home


I don't know why but it really seems to me to be connected to PSN, you don't use soap inside the system to get stuff do you :)

well dont know what it does.
maybe some one do?

@zadow

Do you know how the PS3 uses the keys?
How can we verify we got the right keys?

If you could give me a direction then I can
Help you.
Maybe we can write a bruteforcer. I have several vps where we can run it for many days 24/7.

you can delete marlin cache on a debug ps3 or on a rebugd ps3, there is that option on the debug options.

as dor the vm you may be right H3avyR1ain not sure though.

mirkie that is not possible bruteforcing keys this is not a ftp and its not you on the other side running Hydra :P
have a look at the wiki regarding self encryption and structure you will see how they are built, and how strong the encryption is.

Every encryption is bruteforcable. But the time the computer finds the right key, can take verrrryyy long. But if we all run this bruteforce tool, we can shorten the time. We could also use the graphics card.

For that we need a code encrypted and decrypted.
The computer will generate keys till it finds the right one(compares)

I will look at the wiki when i get home. I'm at work. I am doing accountancy my head is full of it
Lol.

sir a shared bruteforcing on encryption keys signatures etc, has been though in numerous ocasions, its not feasible.

i know how encryption works thank you XD

if you want to keep going in that ludacris idea no one is stopping you, but you are wasting your time.

maybe some could, run it on other os and anergist, and dump it
we can maybe get a hint what it does
