Hi All,

Got my PS3 last night and booted Kenji (fully updated firmware).
Got to the point where it tels you that the games uses an autosave and ejected the disc. Put a new game in and clicked the x button as prompted. It then tried to load Kenji info from the new disc i had stuck in(Harry potter). It then had a good go at loading until i had to force it to shutdown. If this second disc had an exploit on it could it be used? The system has already booted a disc and allowed access to memory and the drive.

I've done it a couple of times and it sems reprodicible.

As I say be gentle it's my first post.

Not to bring you down but..this method could work but will might only enable u to use a copied version of the exact same game you put in...useless if you did not want to play a backup of the same game you own...i do not know about the exploit thing though...to make the game image properly you would have to change the LBA of the contents of the BD game..else i dunno about bd roms...:S

I was wondering, that if the game is expecting to see a file, that this file could be used to buffer overflowed or whatever.
Sorry I feel such a n00b.

Perhaps oversimplification.
Game loads and grants access to PS3.
Crashes,
Instead of loading correct data from a known file on the disc, it loads a replacement of the same name with an exploit (like a gif overflow or similar).
If this file is loading the main menu (as I would expect it to be doing) then the replacement file could be a new menu with a new option to Screw with PS3.
