Mathieulh has just released his PSP/PS3 Game decrypter via Twitter.
From the readme:
"PSP PS3 PKG Decrypter Extractor v.1.0.0.0 by Mathieulh
- What does this do ?
This will decrypt and extract PlayStation 3, PlayStation Portable and mixed GAME PACKAGES (NOT UPDATER ONES !) onto your pc.
How do I use it ?
Just open the package you want to extract or drag and drop it and click on "Extract package"
Can I run this on Linux ?
Sorry this app is windows only, however full sources have been supplied along with it so feel
free to make a Linux port out of it, you have my blessing.
Can This encrypt/sign my game packages ?
NO, when this application was written, the main concern was about packages decryption, so that part
was kinda skipped, however it is trivial to do the reverse operation, remember, sources are supplied.
--------------
Here is the little story, this little app was done since literally AGES , distributed to a very small amount of people,
and was conveniently designed and used to decrypt packages and repack them on our debug consoles so we wouldn't have to QA flag them to update our games or install games we purchased from the ps store. The algorithm was a bit of a pain to reverse but the keys could be easily grabbed with a lv2 exploit. So here we are, this app was done but the problem is it couldn't be leaked because I and a few other people who were entrusted with it, were kinda afraid that sony would change the keys and fix whatever exploits we had (turned out they didn't) but since we can now get whatever new keys they add/change this has become a quite irrelevant concern. The next concern was piracy. There was nothing at the time justifying a release for that application, most people would just not have a legit use for it so releasing was out of the question.
So what changed our minds ? Well, CCC happened, and Segher (props to him !) figured how to
conveniently calculate private keys and suddenly a legit use appeared, as people would/might need
to encrypt their packages to install their own signed apps onto their consoles. This is not a 1:1 algorithm port as it's been improved, thus the decryption happens 3 times as fast as on playstation 3.
Since people suddenly became interested in the game packages format, we just thought releasing that app would spare them the (hours of) work of reversing the encryption algorithm and that this code would not go to waste.
Special thanks to someone who helped a lot but wishes to remain anonymous.
Greetings to Segher whom, I believe people tend to forget too often.

p.s. Forgot to enable the button in vs prior recompile, this is now fixed."

"PlayStation 3's internal security scheme is a shambles, with all of its major anti-piracy features failing abysmally. The system is so vulnerable that hackers now have the exact same privileges as Sony in deciding what code can run on the console."
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-ps3-security-in-tatters
What does this mean? we now have full control over the ps3 for running code, no mod chip or dongles needed. PS3s are now homebrew friendly right out of the box. Homebew fan did not have it so good since the Dreamcast days!
Also it seems that there is nothing sony can do to stop it, firmware updated etc are useless. Only only fix is a hardware revision , but we already have about 45million ps3 in the wild (compared to the dreamcasts total 10million), that's a lot of potential home brewers.
Fail0verflow, the creators of this hack lay the blame of this squarely on Sony decision to remove OtherOS from the PS3, which activated hackers to expose the security shortcomings of the system.

The video below is from an official reseller but here is the kicker...they are charging $40 for the downgrade PLUS the cost of the PS Jailbreak dongle.

PS Jailbreak team has said that they worked really hard on this and to prevent others from cloning or hacking their own products. What do you think? You think it can be done? This is great news for the PS3 Scene, but I would of loved to see a 3.50 jailbreak.
