3.3

The June 16th, or Version 3.3 update checks for and deletes Twilight Hack and any other Twilight Princess saves exploiting the same vulnerability. However, it does not do anything to existing Homebew Channel installations. It does, however, fix the Signing bug, which could affect future installations of the channel.

Users are advised not to update until more information is known.

The update is now available in the PAL region as well.

The Wiiboard message from nintendo

Because unauthorized modifications
to save files may impair game play
or the Wii console, updating to Wii
Menu version 3.3 will also check for
and automatically remove such save
files.

The full message can be found here.

Technical details

According to the post on HackMii, three functions have been added to the system menu.

1. ipl::utility::ESMisc::DeleteSavedata( (unsigned long long, EGG::Heap *))
2. ipl::utility::ESMisc::VerifySavedataZD( (unsigned long long, EGG::Heap *))
3. WADCheckSavedataZD

Based on disassembly of these functions, it seems that the SystemMenu will now check to see if the strings in the save data (such as character names) are of correct length. This will essentially disallow a string-based stack smash for Twilight Princess.

Q & A

It says the UPDATE removes any edited save files... can you just recopy the twilight princess hack again?

Nope, you can't, it won't let you copy any invalid Twilight Princess saves.

Will it delete Homebrew Channel?

No, it won't delete it.

Is Homebrew Channel still working?

Yes.

Do you have an estimate on how long it may take till I could update?

Just don't update if you don't want to.

Well guys we won't be FORCED to update till we want to play the next BIG game on the Wii right?

The update isn't critical at this time.
