    psp PSP : FrSIRT reports libtiff exploit with risk as "RAISED"

    The French Security Incident Response Team (FrSIRT) has reported the libtiff exploit as a "Raised" risk category exploit.

    The URL is
    http://www.frsirt.com/bulletins/6778

    The Japanese media is reporting this as a HIGH RISK exploit. Itmedia is particularly vocal on this one
    http://www.itmedia.co.jp/enterprise/...1/news051.html

    With all this high attention it is becoming quite clear that we should see an updated firmware coming up soon sometime from Sony.

    Thats the translated page for those not bothered to view it haha heres the translation:-

    In PSP vulnerability of not yet patch

    The vulnerability “of High Risk” was discovered with Photo Viewer of PSP.

    2006 September 01st 14:48 renewals

    The french security system FrSIRT reported that August 31st, with the SONY portable game machine “PSP” vulnerability was discovered. Degree of risk 2nd is high in, it is made “High Risk”.

    As for this vulnerability, error occurring the occasion where the TIFF picture of the illegitimate type where “Photo Viewer” of PSP used libTIFF is processed causes. When the attack person abuses this vulnerability, you say that by the fact that the illegitimate picture is made to open to the user, fragility being able to execute optional command it finishes on PSP.

    As for receiving the influence of this problem the firmware version 2.00~2.80 of PSP. The patch which corrects this vulnerability is not offered.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------

    I think what its trying to say in other words is that Sony have not offered a patch yet and may not be able to as a tiff file is...well a tiff file haha, they could remove tiff support but then we can hack into the tag of a MP3 file, and if they remove that people will get angry.
