PS3 Random HDD & RAM Dumping Bug

It seems like StreetskaterFU is at it again, SKFU posts on his blog that he ran across a bug on the PS3 NAT test that allows you to dump random data from HDD and RAM.

To quote from his blog:
There's a little "bug" in the PlayStation3's NAT test which causes that you can dump random data from the HDD and RAM. Why exactly this appears; I don't know, yet. But well, it is interesting.



The way how to do it is pretty simple. Set up Wireshark on the PC and activate ICS (Internet Connection Sharing). Connect the PS3 with the PC via LAN and start Wireshark's logging/sniffing feature on the LAN device. Now go to Settings on the PS3 and start a Internet Connection Test in the Network option. When the PS3 starts the NAT testing it will send default STUN packets together with several IP Fragments. Those both packet types will contain random data which the PS3 grabs from the HDD and/or RAM.

There you go.

random data
You could always try it yourself, then you would know what type of data it is.

You missed a post from Streetskater:
PSN Account: "Mail Check & Info Reader"

BTW, the "key" is: A9QTbosh0W0D^{7467l-n_>2Y%JG^v>o

EDIT: Of course someone has exploited this website and tried to post certain profile details of mine in retaliation for this post because I didn't "give credit" I don't see you coming here and asking nicely, and since when has a user from another site been required to give YOU credit for a news post that wasn't originally yours in the first place.

Come here and talk to me before deciding to be a dick.
