As title: PS Vita hacked: full system access enabled for homebrew
As someone that bought Syndicate Wars from the PSN store, only for Sony to lock it later, i may do this to enable bought content i cannot otherwise play.
Dubbed HENkaku ... The injected code removes the Vita's file system from its sandbox and allows users to access it via FTP. From there, homebrew packages can be transferred across and run on the unit.
The exploit also works on the PlayStation TV/Vita TV micro-console, and the open access to the file system means that the ability to whitelist all titles has now returned, meaning that games which were bizarrely locked out - including Sony's own, some of which worked great - can now once again run.
