seems sony bumped up Oberon IPL security revision again. 0x11E 2 Security Revision? 00 07 (1.05-6.02) / 00 FF (6.50) / 03 FF (7.00-7-61) / 0F FF (8.00-8.XX?)I suppose this is related with fuse material that prevents downgrading. waiting on input from flat_z / fail0verflow
added partially decrypted 8.00 pup to mega (credit to Msparky83 (@MSPARKY83) for the decryption on his console)
seems we finally have a confirmation from theflow that there's a kernel exploit coming. only thing left to check is if it's patched on 11.02/8.40 or 11.50/9.00
