| Missing verification-block for the 9.6 keys
 +
| Starting with [[9.6.0-24|9.6.0-X]] a new set of NAND-based keys were introduced. However, they forgot to add a verification block to verify that the new key read from NAND is correct.
 +
 +
Thus, by writing an incorrect key to NAND you can make arm9loader decrypt ARM9 kernel as garbage and then jump to it.
 +
 +
This allows an hardware-based NAND-attack where you can boot into an older exploited firmware, fill all memory with NOP sleds/jump-instructions, and then reboot into executing garbage. By automating this process eventually (I approximated within 1-10 days) you'll find some garbage that jumps to your code.
 +
 +
This should give you very early ARM9 code execution (pre-ARM9 kernel). For example, you can dump RSA keyslots with this and calculate the 6.x [[Savegames#6.0.0-11_Savegame_keyY|save]], and 7.x [[NCCH]] keys.
