Nintendo DS trojan Posted by Mikko @ 16:51 GMT

This simple trojan, known as "DSBrick" overwrites critical memory areas, preventing the console from booting.

Homebrewn software can be run only on modified DS units, so this is not going to be a big issue. Apparently the trojan has been distributed in as r0mloader.zip and taihen.zip.
