Playstation 3 (PS3) - using ps network with old firmware

Post by Sethioz »

experimental and not working properly !

as explained in other TOPIC you can now intercept and modify packets. i did a simple test. capture the packet when you click on playstation network. it goes to the following URL:

Code: Select all

http://fuk01.ps3.update.playstation.net:80/update/ps3/list/uk/ps3-updatelist.txt
so what i did, i went to that address and obviously found a text file. containing just few lines of info.
# US
Dest=87;CompatibleSystemSoftwareVersion=3.6600-;
Dest=87;ImageVersion=0000c55f;SystemSoftwareVersion=3.6600;CDN=http://duk01.ps3.update.playstation.net ... Timeout=30;
it clearly states the version it is compatible with, which is 3.66. so what i did, i copyd this file to my pc and changed version from 3.66 to 3.55.
like so
# US
Dest=87;CompatibleSystemSoftwareVersion=3.5500-;
Dest=87;ImageVersion=0000c55f;SystemSoftwareVersion=3.5500;CDN=http://192.168.1.90:8080/PS3UPDAT.PUP;CDN_Timeout=30;

now i used HFS (http file server) and hosted that file locally.
then i used webscarab to intercept the request and changed

Code: Select all

http://fuk01.ps3.update.playstation.net:80/update/ps3/list/uk/ps3-updatelist.txt
to

Code: Select all

http://192.168.1.90:8080/ps3-updatelist.txt
your playstation wont recieve the update notice and allows you to enter, however i dont think it fully works. it shows the playstation network page, but wont allow me to make account or use old one, on some reason it wont send out any data at all, very strange. like it wont even try to connect at all.
anyone confirm / decline ? this seems interesting, since if i can get it to work, it means you can now play pirated games ONLINE !
