It appears that efforts to hack Sony's PlayStation 3 (PS3) console may have gotten a big boost today with the discovery of a bug that could lead to working exploits to inject code. This in turn, could lead to PS3 homebrew and ISO loaders. Hacker "hacked2123" is given credit for distributing a proof-of-concept example for the LibMPEG exploit, which is confirmed working with v1.10 and v1.11.
There has been a lot of rumor and speculation lately about possible methods to hack the PS3 console and possibly boot games. Blu-Ray games can be fairly easily dumped to the PS3 HDD and several have been available to download for months now. It will be interesting to see what this develops in to.
