Happy new year! PSP Game UNO vulnerability revealed by Frostegater, port of CEF To Vita 2.02 incoming.
After a long time of waiting and a weeks-long Ninja release, Frostegater’s exploit is finally revealed to be in the PSP Mini game UNO. UNO joins the growing collection of PSP games with a buffer overflow vulnerability, and if our experience is to be trusted, Sony will remove it from their stores within 48hrs (although we hope the holiday season might help delaying this…), so hurry up and get it.
For those who just join us, developer Frostegater announced a few weeks ago that he would be porting Total_Noob’s CEF to Vita Firmware 2.02. CEF is a piece of software that allows users to run PSP Homebrews, plugins, and backups within the PSP emulator of the Vita. Since this is not official Sony software, it relies on flaws in some specific games in order to run. This time’s game is UNO.
But well, if you’ve been following this blog, you know what CEF does and why you want it, so if you are interested, hurry up, and get Uno now. Let me emphasize again that if you are interested, you want to buy that game now, not tomorrow, not in 2 hours, but now, as you don’t know when Sony will remove it from their stores.
The Game is available in the US, JP, and EU stores, but not in HK based on the reports I have. For those who are in a store where the game is not available, you can create an account in another country, and order a PSN code online. I will not promote any of them, but feel free to share your recommendations in the comments below.
If you do get the game, do not wait to install it on your Vita. A typical mistake is that people will buy from their PS3, download it to their PS3, and not install it to their Vita immediately. This does not work, as Sony has the possibility to remove the game from your download list, technically preventing you from easily copying it from your PS3 to your Vita.
Frostegater’s files will be released on this site as well as other scene websites in a few days (in general we wait until the game is not available in the Sony stores anymore), and until then, here are a few videos from Frostegater and myself showing the exploit in action.
dang man icant wait
And 01.01.2013 Sony will release new 2.03 soft with blocked exploit in UNO game XD XD XD
Also new soft we will be must have to paly online XD XD XD
so… exploit in UNO game will be only information XD XD XD
wha?
vodka anyone?
Yes , please . we don’t have to instal 2.03 soft. I download UNO and I know that mean that I will be no play online on vita. But I have no game on Vita to play online, I can play on it on big consol.
Please give file , to play on psV in game from psp.
simple, get another PSV then. even my grandma knows that better.
I have mean, that I have ps3 and xbox360 and I can play online on them. Not on another psv.
u lost me there. if u dont have online on your psv, then it is your problem, no one can help u atm.
Uhm… English please? Haha
First exploit I got since Super Collapse 3. :] I have all the big Vita titles but not the PSP Ones so thanks, guys!
probably the sweetest release ever.. A lof of folks got the game due to new year celebration, perfect timing… The ninja release took a week.. And as i am typing this, the game is still in the US store… Epic.
Congrats to the people who collaborated..
so if i want to upgrade to 2.03 will the files stop the process?
Don’t upgrade to 2.03 if you want the exploit. Isn’t that obvious?
what i ment was if sony released a fw thats needed for online play will i be able to remove the files and upgrade to 2.03
if u upgrade then u lose ur ability to running homebrew. simple no?
Can i disregard openCMA because im new and i’ll already downloaded uno ?
You will need openCMA in any case to transfer the exploit files onto the VITA. And for any homebrew/ISO you wish to play.
no. you need open cma to get the savesploit onto your vita and any homebrews. just having uno doesn’t grant anything but you being able to play uno.
you need open cma for any of this to work.
get CMA 2.005976.25 now before s0ny change sumthing later on.
got an 8gb memory today all because of this awesome exploit
Still on UK store, £3.99
Hi does anyone know if ps3jig will work with this exploit ?
will the open cma try to update by itself?
no afaik, but u better block it via firewall, just in case.
Open CMA will not.
so i now have my vita at 2.02 iv got open cma ready and i havd uno!!!!!!! But when sony updates the vita firmware which i will not be updateing to will it force a cma update?
Not If you use Open CMA 😉
Nice!!!!!! Thanks bud!
Still up on USA, 1:25PM EST.
and still up EST 2:50pm in USA
Still UP 4:27 EST USA!

Got damn! The whole world is posting!!
Where is the download?
Pls tell me :'(
Pls send it to me gideosnwgames@gmail.com :'(
No.
forgive me. I have a VERY dumb question. What doe OpenCMA do? I did some google a bit.. it says ….
“This system is here to force you to update the Vita when a new version is available. In addition, it might be inconvenient for you to be constantly connected when you want to copy your files from and to the Vita. This patch is here to help you with this situation.”
I want to test this without installing OpenCMA. I still can transfer back and both between my pc and vita while the internet is off. I’m so confused. Will my vita update automatically when it comes out? I just download OpenCMS 5 and click “Run”. that’s it?
Again, I’m new and very dumb. Hope you can help me understand this and why it’s needed.
Thanks!!
umm… how i install this? i have to put all the files into PS Vita folder on my pc and click “run”?
OpenCMA stops CMA connecting to the internet. It means that once a new firmware, patched to stop this exploit is released, CMA won’t force you to update your Vita. It means that we’ll be able to transfer homebrews and ISOs after the next firmware is released.
thanks for explaining! I get it now. 😀 I see why OpenCMA is a must have.
I found a great video about how to install OpenCMA. Hope this will help others.
I have one more question tho. I have two accounts. Let’s say I have account A and account B. I bought some games from PSN on account A. Is it possible to copy the games from my PC to my second PS Vita with account B. It shows nothing there because it’s only for account A, not account B. Is it possible to force it to copy and put it on my second vita with second account? Not sure if i’m clear.
Ops i forgot to add the video link….
i think u can update cma for now open cma will come out with exploit so if u want to back up uno just update cma wait for open cma to load up exploit
STILL WATING fot the savedata
“fot” for
so?
wat a face
Whoa dude you got the short end of the stick (literally) on that avatar. XDDDDDDD
HAPPY NEW YEAR GUYS..
Why not look into free games x:?
Urbanix was free for some time…
Ohh, true. That doesn’t help now though. /:
they can’t exploit free games because sony doesn’t have any free psp games :/
thank bros
how can i get iso?
toilet bowl
Pencil Sharpener
I just have to buy and download it right? and wait for further instructions. Anyone please confirm if i did the right thing, thank you in advance 🙂 Happy new Year!
yes. just wait for the save data files to be release.
Correct. But you should do coppy of this game on your pc using opencma.
Thank you for your replies. Cheers! 😉
can we get the files for the new years too? i dont see why we’re waiting till they pull it off the store. they can’t fix it without knowing what the problem is/making a new firmware right??
because saves files are the proof that cef is working on 2.02, its so simple
well if sony had a clue by now, theyd already know that it was save file related, as were most of the last exploits. im just saying: if thats the case there’s no point waiting. if not, then i think its about time to release it. i dont even have the exploit yet, cant download it unfortunately atm. but idk, i just dont feel right about waiting. cant they also fix games without pulling them from the store?
Wololo confirmed by twitter that we won’t get the files today. So wait patiently.
its not a matter of waiting patiently..like, i said, i dont have the game, therefore im not really eager to get the files… Im just a little curious about the real value in waiting.
Sony’s inactivity scares me. Feel like I wasted $5 because there will probably be a force update that blocks this soon…
dont worry, thats happend in all expolits realses
thats why you keep all internet connections OFF!!!! Also keep Airplane mode on if you want to lower the risks of dealing with an update. if you have a PS3 and a PC with Open CMA you can still get games for your vita but the Open CMA glitch.
Are $ony bored of playing cat and mouse? they are scarily quit over this which is a bit worrying.
Oh well lets enjoy it whilst it lasts, you never know they might have given up chasing hackers as they know its a futile waste of resources, the hackers always win!!
This is normal response time for them, you also have to account for it being the holidays and announced on the weekend.
Hehehe happy new year for everyone! Be patient, the files will be our new year gift!
Do not drink too much this night 😉
hi guys happy new year.hope it will be available on Jan 1.
Damn, only have $3.19 on my account. This would’ve made my day…-_-. If anyone has any holiday spirit and feels generous, I’d be incredibly grateful if someone had a $3 or whatever the lowest possible value in PSN card is. My e-mail is williamb223@yahoo.com. Again, I can understand if nobody feels like helping.
>_>
