The 4.2rev04 update was a batch IOS update released shortly before 4.3, much like 3.4rev02. It provided various enhancements to IOSes in addition to blocking homebrew. IOSP, ES, and SDI were updated to versions built on March 1, 2010.
Changes
- IOS9 now has a build tag
- This version of IOS9 was released in Japan in 4.3
- IOS21 still has this patch
- Several IOSes have been replaced with copies of other IOSes
- IOS13, IOS14, and IOS15 have been replaced with copies of IOS17
- These copies only differ in the version number stored in NCD
- IOS15 no longer has the NAND Boot Program
- IOS31, IOS33, and IOS34 are now identical
- IOS37 and IOS53 have been replaced with copies of IOS55
- In Korea, IOS43 was replaced with a copy of the code used for IOS41, IOS45, and IOS46.
- IOS13, IOS14, and IOS15 have been replaced with copies of IOS17
- Added IOS80 to prepare for 4.3.
- ES now creates /wfs on startup, although it is not used.
- Homebrew fixes
- Fixed HackMii Installer Userland+Syscall IOS exploit in all IOSes (including IOS58, which was previously not on NUS)
- ES_AddTitleFinish now checks signatures
- In Japan, IOS9, IOS57, and IOS61 were not updated, instead being updated in 4.3.
- The function used to verify pointers in the kernel seems to have been updated to take the process ID as a parameter instead of determining it automatically from the current thread. The function that required this change is not known.
- SDI's IOCTL 2 (read SD Host Controller register) was updated to cast the register number to a short. It is unclear how this would be a threat, since it does not allow memory to be rewritten, but a similar issue may have also been fixed in IOCTL 1 (write register).
- Updated EULA in E and K regions.
