I'll give you a Wii U on 5.5.0 and you give me your 5.3.2 Wii U, that way you get your splatoon and all, deal ?
I'm guessing it's a new update and you didnt go check the new version number and type it in? That's why usually, don't know why it's not up to date, but it does it. I dont feel like digging for the links though to check the version number, I'm beat. Maybe someone else will look or give them to you. Should be in the thread here or in wup installer's somewhere. crediar posted them.
I'm assuming "nus downloader" is nusgrabber or uwizard.
Don't use the NUSGrabber GUI v1.7, it's broken. Use the NUSGrabber.exe command line. You can find it at the wupinstaller website.
More facts:
- I don't need nor would I accept donations. I appreciate the gesture, truly, but I don't need the money. I believe donations should be considered in the future for people that will pick up on the new access the IOSU gives and develop solid homebrew for the Wii U, those are the people that will need donations, not me.
- The exploit works solely from the Internet Browser. No specific games, no eShop stuff, nothing.

Thank you Hykem,
So since it works on from the internet browser, does that mean we'll need a browser exploit that works already on our version? or the package you're providing already works on browsers up to 5.5.0 ?
It will require a separate WebKit exploit first. It's not a problem for firmwares 2.0.0 to 5.3.2, but firmware versions 5.4.0 and 5.5.0 still need to have a proper exploit done. This is being worked on as well (it would be a bit pointless to release a working IOSU exploit without the WebKit entry points for 5.4.0/5.5.0).
In other words, the goal is to release everything at once, giving people more than enough time to prepare themselves. It wouldn't be fair to release the exploit only for up to 5.3.2 and leave 5.4.0/5.5.0 users in the dust.
Is emunand being work on? I don't care if it is or not, just curious, I like knowing things.

Ok he just answered it all, thanks again Hykem ! and good luck with the work you're doing !
He did say about couple months ago that he started designing an emunand solution, maybe it's one of the hidden surprises? I don't know ^^. The fact that he's preparing an entry point for all users to IOSU up to the latest firmware is already a huge thing.
@Hykem can IOSU manipulate kernel space in RAM ?
Or do we still need a kernel exploit for everything kernel related?
So far the plan looked to me like you need 3 exploits chained together to gain full control of the console (userspace -> kernel -> IOSU).
My understanding was that IOSU is related to hardware (device) access and crypto stuff rather than controling the kernel etc. that's why I ask.

Sadly Hykem, it's probably best to just stay tight lipped about it anymore. Every post with information causes the masses to spew out 10,000 more questions. Thank's for the input and am glad you were finally able to break the big IOSU wall and earn your stamp. Can't wait to see what will be released in the coming weeks!
Yes, the IOSU can manipulate all the PPC kernel memory.
Our initial plan was indeed to chain together PPC userland and PPC kernel to attack the IOSU, but, in a lucky turn of events, I managed to exploit a bug that works straight from PPC userland (yes, corrupted data is passed right through the PPC kernel into the IOSU userland).
The IOSU is a custom OS running on a separate ARM processor and is indeed related to hardware access, crypto, title management and all that. It's also responsible for launching the PPC kernel binary, so it had to be able to access it.
IOSU also has a userland and a kernel and, in fact, the first thing I attempted was to overwrite PPC kernel memory with IOSU userland access (kernel access is not even needed to mess with the PPC processor).
I agree. All the necessary information will be eventually released.
