Try copy and pasting the highlights of the article instead of pasting a URL and a comment. (Facepalm)
Also, try getting your news from a website that someone alive has heard of. (Okay) * +

You are a dinosaur if you haven't heard of that site. But. The article is 9 months old. (sad) I had my hopes up and even started to consider buying a One. * +

Just a week ago on Christmas, the massive Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack from the notorious hacking group Lizard Squad knocked Sonys PlayStation Network and Microsofts Xbox Live offline, but as if it wasn't the end of disaster for Microsoft.



This time it isn't a case of services being taken down instead, the software development kit (SDK) for the Xbox Live is being freely circulated over the Internet. Another group calling itself H4LT has apparently managed to leak the Microsofts official Xbox One developer SDK, potentially opening the door for homemade applications and allowing unapproved developers to create unofficial software for the system.

The group announced the Xbox One leak via its official Twitter account, and also provided some screenshots of the Novembers release of the Durango XDK (Xbox Development Kit) files, including the accompanying development tools, device firmware and its documentation. * +

According to the group, there is no definite exploit at the moment that would allow developers to run homebrew applications on the console, but the group does hope that someone familiar with the inner workings of Windows 8 will be able to dig through the files and find something.


Once the SDK is out, people who have knowledge or has in the past reversed files related to the Windows (8) operating system should definitely have a go at reversing some files in there, the group added. Why? Well, the Xbox One is practically a stripped Windows 8 device and has introduced a new package format that hasn't had much attention. This format is responsible for updating the console and storing applications (Games are under the category of 'Applications' on the Xbox One) and is a modification of Virtual Hard Disks.

At the time, there is not much information about the leaked , but as time passes and further study is conducted on the leaked SDK, more hidden information will be unveiled. * +

Ah, well that's good news. Shouldn't be too difficult to get code running on it, for someone who knows what they are doing. Then find some exploits in the OS and crack the system wide open... Hopefully. * +
