In the next story I will try to explain the new features of the PS Vita as a scene is concerned. Many users are confused about the hearsay news in recent months about SDK's , exploits and other terms for some known and some not, but what is the real situation?
So far simpler alternative to an unofficial section uses outside of games, demos and multimedia featuring the PS Vita , has been using the SDK provided by Sony that allows the execution of homebrew created by users that have already been published several on the web, but there are other ways in which the scene of this console grows significantly, for starters, let's talk about the exploits .
Exploits PS Vita

It is clear from the beginning of the news SceneBeta is not entirely in accordance with the practices of breach of security of commercial games and it may separate malicious use based on these.
In recent months many users have heard about the creation of many exploits . To start, we must clarify what the term means. An exploit is a technique by which software developers create abnormal or undesirable behaviors in other software. Regarding the PS Vita , the exploits that have been created are aimed at commercial games PSP . I'll explain better: As all owners of PS Vita will know, or at least the vast majority, the PS Vita not only run specific games for the platform, but also can play titles of PSP that can be purchased via PS Store. The internal software of the console has a kind of emulator that is able to perform all the actions of a PSP usual. Well, all exploits released so far have been directed towards this field, seeking only software vulnerabilities games PSP , as was done earlier in the scene of PSP games like Lumines, Patapon 2 and a few more.
What is bad about this? Several things, first, if we are " free "(and I put it in quotes because it is not a full release as I will explain later) our PS Vita , we have to toil away money in buying an original game PS Store , not only that, but we'll have to do it fast, because nothing brings to light a new exploit , Sony is quick to remove it from the PS Store to publish several days after the vulnerability addressed preventing the performance of the software. The second negative is that it is not an actual release of the console, but access to internal emulator for the PSP , so it is limited use of the "liberation" to run homebrews for PSP using a software known as Vita Half Byte Loader ( VHBL ), and not all are compatible homebrews. Below and to not create too much confusion and clarify an important point differentiative separates the exploits of two classes:
User user mode exploit or exploit :

It is a type of exploit for commercial games in which there is access to the privileges given to us as a Custom Firmware for PSP . This means that actions like run commercial games PSP or PS One ( PSX ) are discarded because they are simply not granted privileges. All exploits released to date for PS Vita , users have been so.
The exploits user have been released so are the coder wololo , (in collaboration with other coders as neur0n and teck4 among others) are known for creating the Half Byte LoaderSoftware which is used in the own Vita to run homebrews. The games used for this are as follows:
2012-09-08

  • MotorStorm Artic Edge (already patched vulnerability and corrected)
  • Everybody's Tennis (already patched vulnerability and corrected)
  • Super Collapse 3 (already patched vulnerability and corrected)

* Video functioning exploit in the game "Motorstorm Artic Edge" (currently unusable)

  • Monster Hunter Unite (retired from PS Store, about to leave for the game VHBL)

* Video demonstration of the exploit in Monster Hunter Freedom Unite.

Where and when new exploits are released?

If you want to take cognizance of the release of new commercial exploits you can do on the site / blog wololoand in their forums. However since SceneBeta try acercaros all exploits they come out, but if you do not want to lose you the exploits before Sony remove them from the PS Store would highly recommend checking your blog every day, since virtually anytime and without notice (for obvious reasons) the release.
All this as the limited access to the famous " user exploit "but is that all?
Kernel exploit or exploit all privileges :

2012-09-08

The difference between this and exploit user or user mode exploit , is that in this type of exploit all privileges are granted, so actions like run ISOs commercial games, PSX and even access the virtual memory that emulates the flash0 console PSP within the Vita is possible. Currently very few known kernel exploits , and those known to be published. If we think carefully would be stupid, as the developers have concluded. AskEarn.org: all the work of finding a vulnerability that allows access to the kernel to Sony you patch it to 24 hours? Not worth it. Therefore, developers are looking for different ways to exploit that somehow reach more people and keeps more than 24 hours.
Here's a kernel exploit the known coder Davee (one of the developers of Custom Firmware HEN in PSP ):
If you want to take cognizance of the possible (but unlikely in the short term) publication of the kernel exploit of Davee , often you can visit their websiteOr follow him on twitter @ DaveeFTW since from the developers twitter one is able to learn about their progress, albeit from SceneBeta I try to bring novelty about this project.
