Running the Xbox One/Series Kernel Level PoC Script With a Raspberry Pi Pico!

We covered the news of a User and Kernel Level SystemOS exploit for the Xbox One and Xbox Series consoles in the last episode of ModChat, showed how to prepare a console, and what to look out for... But how exactly could it be run within the Game Script application? Currently it has yet to be released, but there is a pretty 1337 Proof of Concept script which can be run to not only demonstrate the process of gaining code execution, but also showing that it could work on a compatible console. Since the process highly recommends a Rubber Ducky USB device, why not turn one of our favorite devices, the Raspberry Pi Pico, into one?

It seems like as of now reports are coming in that the Game Script app is unavailable, in addition to the Game Script app breaking for anyone who already has it installed and is online.

If your console has already been set up and taken offline, keep it offline.

[cadindie]

Never thought I'd be mentioned in a MrMario video before, neat! 😅

[Thumbstickgamer]

Just bought one of these and used to fix my Wii-U's NAND Issue. Awesome I get to use it again!!!

tfw the same Pico I used to mod my 360 is now being used to gain kernel access to my Xbox Series X (and my One S)

[PaulHenning]

Big thanks for making videos like these, I feverishly spent last night prepping my Series S, activating licenses on the series S, then taking it offline forever.

If someone is having trouble getting the script to work, take in mind that is Keyboard sensitive, i had a spanish keyboard in my xbox one and the srcipt didn't work, just change it to English USA and it works like a charm.

You can also install notepad t and file explorer (full access) to not need a pico

[drboom]

I just ate so much Taco Bell. Just thought you should know before the storm hits.

[officialchez]

Use notepad t on console and copy and paste I did without the need of a rubber ducky

[mrlerien]

i've been able to copy and paste the code using Notepad on the microsoft store and a usb flash drive so you don't need a microcontroller or raspberry pi pico at all! you just need to get Notepad alongside Game Script before an update comes lol

[gam]

Would this be able to be used for backups or similar in the future like in 6-12 months time ? Is it worth keeping your xbox offline and not updated in the hopes of a full exploit?

[moet]

I pulled mine out immediately and set it up after the last video 😅 will you be revisiting the PSP running ark4 in the future?

[LokiDeth]

***EDIT: Updated firmware now out, vulnerability now patched.


can confirm working on my series S, also noted (and working at time of comment) ADV file explorer (microsoft store app) can be used aside from pico/ducky clone etc.

[Smilxy.]

Now that theres Kernel stuff on xbox. Does that mean eventually hacking in console games will be a thing? Or jailbreaking in general

[xcxi]

i get error code "quack quack \ parsing error in "none" on 1:2: only assign?

[Meowtional]

imagine 5 years from now i really hope stealth servers return but imagine how clean this will be lol on the freaking xbox one holy...

[Astr-]

It is insane that we have a softmod for the Xbox One and Series consoles...

[chromium]

Wondered if it was possible on the pico. I ended up using a Full Trust file explorer on the Xbox and replaced the game script auto save file with one containing the script on a USB stick. Nice and simple

[espressomatic]

An exploit of the system kernel is a really interesting prospect - a proper jailbreak along with userland code execution. An exploit of a virtual kernel, as this seems to be, is somewhat cool, but not nearly as interesting. :(

On Raspberry Pi Pico I have more files then just the boot out file. ".fseventsd, lib, .metadata never index, .Trashes, code.py and settings.toml" should I delete those files or just leave them be?
