xxGet your AP2.5/XGD3 backups working again after the silent DAE update

KingMike_OS

The recent silent DAE update stopped all AP2.5 / XGD3 backups from booting. Until a solid solution is released, here is a simple workaround
 
Thanks to Dattran over at XPGamesaves.com for discovering this simple work around.
 
For this example we are going to use MW3.
 
1. Get a USB flash drive, At least 1GB in size and format it (FAT)
 
2. Insert into Xbox and goto memory devices. Select USB and configure it as a storage device.
 
3. Download the this MW3 Title Update Click here.

4. Download Horizon Click here.

5. Select Tools > Device Explorer
 
6. Plug in USB device to PC
 
7. Device will be detected. Select Inject File
 
8. Load the the MW3 TU that you downloaded.
 
9. Connect the USB stick to your Xbox. Restart and boot your MW3 backup.
 
Notes: You may have to delete the system cache after every time you do a fresh boot of the game. But hey, it works.
 
You can get other title updates from here: http://www.xbuc.net
 
Nothing is ever live safe. It may work, it may not. I’m not your mom make your own choice.
 
Please report if you have any success / links to TU’s / better methods.

xxabgx360: DAE.bin Silently Updated on XBL on Current Public Dashboard

KingMike_OS

DAE.bin is being silently updated through Xbox Live with an additional challenge table! This happens on the current public dashboard version 2.0.13604.0 and there is no confirmation dialog or any known means to prevent it besides disconnecting your console from the internet.

If your DAE.bin has already been silently updated, AP25 backups that are patched with current AP25 replay data will fail the normal AP25 challenges outright! Note that all XGD3 games use AP25.

Use your originals if you want to play on Xbox Live.

Quote
First and foremost, a warning — at this current time it is advised that you stay offline and avoid playing any AP2.5/XGD3 backups. It has been confirmed by the team that the dae.bin is now being silently updated on all LIVE-connected boxes.

This update is not being deployed via a SystemUpdate or TitleUpdate, but rather occurs in the background without any visual indication or prompt to the user. As such, there is no means by which it can be cancelled or avoided, other than not connecting to LIVE. If you’ve connected to LIVE in the past 24 hours, your system has likely already been updated with a changed dae.bin.
All AP2.5/XGD3 backups that contain the now older AP25 replay data will fail the system’s AP2.5 challenges and indeed flag your system (the flagging has also been confirmed by the team).

Like our news a few days ago, the dae.bin is now being changed by way of an appended challenge table in the same manner on current retail dashes (13604) as it is on the preview dash (14686), however the content of the challenge tables differ. The team has determined that the appended challenge table appears to be unique per console and contains indentifying information. This means that everyone’s dae.bin is different, and can potentially be traced back to your specific console. Therefore, sharing your dae.bin with others is not advisable.

xxApple secures iTunes update checking to address man-in-the-middle vulnerability

Apple's iTunes 10.5.1 update addresses a weakness in the application's update mechanism that could be exploited to trick users into visiting malicious websites.

The vulnerability stems from older iTunes versions use of plain HTTP requests to query Apple's servers for new updates. Because such connections lack encryption, a network attacker could intercept the requests and respond with rogue update URLs....

In the battle for tablet supremacy the Kindle Fire from Amazon could very well knock big names like Apple into place with it’s cheaper alternative to an iPad.
It is clear that for now Apple will continue selling their tablets for up to seven hundred dollars. In the present time, the Kindle Fire has the power to set the current price standards ablaze, and cause consumers to reevaluate the current pricing bar that companies charge for seemingly alike devices. ...
