SKFU Finds a flaw in the PS Vita encryption mechanism

via http://wololo.net/wagic/2011/12/31/s...ion-mechanism/

Developer SKFU says today he found a problem in the PS Vita’s encryption functions which allowed him to decrypt some test files, “directly via the system” (hu, does he mean that the Vita decrypts the files for him, and he manages to retrieve the decrypted version???). His blog post doesn’t say anything technical about the flaw or how he found it, but he said he would update his blog when he has more info to share. Stay tuned.

LOL, the PSvita is being hacked open despite old Sony spending time on improving its security. Next thing we might know is that we could downgrade the firmware, just like on the previous PSP consoles.
