Is homebrew headed to the Xbox One following SDK leak?

A group calling itself H4LT has released the Xbox One software development kit (SDK) to the Internet, meaning we could be seeing homebrew apps in the near future.
The group first teased screenshots of the November Durango XDK (Xbox Development Kit) and has now linked a 478MB .rar file that is available via Mega or torrents.

"We leaked it to the community because if something is shared then...progress is achieved faster than alone. The SDK will basically allow the community to reverse and open doors towards homebrew applications being present on the Xbox One," said a team member in an interview. There is no current exploits known, but with hundreds (or thousands) of eyes on the prize, we could hear something soon.
