No MrBrown did. ~PSP files must be signed by certificates or Sony would have no way of preventing us running malicious code. Steddy Checksums do a pretty good job of preventing folks from tampering as well :P. But here it is again: the certificates found in flash have nothing to do with ~PSP files....

He could be referring to the SHA1CipherStream from the decoded JAR file on the wipeoutpure download site.

This uses XOR to cipher data with SHA1 used on previous data for the XOR counterpart.

From all i've read here on the last months... In this form of encryption - simmetric, or shared secret - there are two factors, the key, and the IV or seed. Using the same key but a different IV leads to a diferent output from the same input. This is what changes... those 20 bytes used as SEED (or I...

I don't see a Timestamp being mentioned... The seed changes every time the file is recreated, if your compare the files, you can easily see where.

This directory, on my system, is recreated whenever I run wipeout out and load or create a new profile. I tried this long ago.

The seed's on the file change... on PARAM.SFO (the binary fields) and the .BIN files.

Does anyone saw if other game besides Wipeout Pure created the files?

So, now we can extract the firmware easily I take it -- just read the entire contents of lflash to a file.

Maybe they will just allow to run unsigned ELF again... a security problem reversed... (if you run unsigned there's less chance of trying to break the encryption...)

New browser for PSP ?

Akihabara News reports that their logs show multiple PSP browser versions. There is the widely known 0102 pspNavigator, but also a new version with the name 0105 UCJS10007 appears in the list. Could this be a sign that a new browser upgrade is in the works? http://www.akihabaranews.com/en/news_9570...

It goes back to the connection screen... because it fails to find the web server...

It's a very, very dumb web browser... It must rely in work done by the developer to implement some features.
