Changing the name #1

Open Mrrraou opened 8 years ago

Mrrraou commented 8 years ago

Well, I read the readme.md, but this isn't a hax. Could you please call it something like libsvcpatch or something like that ? As this is confusing, and not an exploit.

LarBob commented 8 years ago

It should be called memchunkhax2.1 or something like that

ghost commented 8 years ago

It exploits a vulnerability in the 3ds to gain higher privileges. It's a hack. As to whether it's a good name or semantically correct... that's up for discussion (I don't think it is).

But when you create something I think you should be able to name it as you please.

Mrrraou commented 8 years ago

@idgrepthat Actually, he never created anything... as this is in the 32c3. And this is meant to be used as a "library".

ghost commented 8 years ago

You've got to be kidding me... Turning a discussion into a working exploit isn't "doing nothing". If he did nothing, then 10.6 was already kexploited. Nonsense.

He created something, he gets to name something. Doesn't need our permission whether it's a library or not.

Bad kitty.

Mrrraou commented 8 years ago

Creating =/= exploiting/writing code based on the 32c3 talk and based on libkhax/memchunkhax2 source code.

ghost commented 8 years ago

Everything is based on something. Svchax is based on memchunkhax2 is based on memchunkhax1 is based on Gateway is based on 3dbrew.

Seriously, you could go back to Dennis Ritchie, Charles Babbage, or their mothers if you want to get exact about credits. Allow people to get recognition if they contribute something.

Mrrraou commented 8 years ago

memchunkhax2 was written from scratch. "svchax" (or whatever this will be called) is based on memchunkhax2 and libkhax, as it reuses some parts of these.

And I'm not saying that he shouldn't get recognition, but that it was discovered and publicly explained by derrek at the 32c3, and it was exploited by aliaspider.

OMG who cares. it's used to gain kernel access. end of story.

ghost commented 8 years ago

This has devolved to a useless discussion about semantics and ethics. I'm just going to shut up and let people contribute without anymore of this noise.

Mrrraou commented 8 years ago

Sure. But I just want this to be renamed because the name is pretty confusing. It would be nice to keep "self-explanatory" names.

LarBob commented 8 years ago

memchunkhax3 or memchunkhax2+ perhaps

mariogamer2 commented 8 years ago

@Mrrraou @aliaspider Think it will be good if it is forked from memchunkhax 2.

Rinnegatamante commented 8 years ago

I wonder why @aliaspider doesn't close this useless issue :P

mariogamer2 commented 8 years ago

@aliaspider Rename this repo and close this **\ issues XD
