Last year, a kernel exploit targeting Xbox One SystemOS was released, utilizing CVE-2024-30088. This allowed for the reading and writing of kernel memory. This opened a huge possibility for new research on a recent OS version, and was my personal entry into the Xbox One scene.
If you are unaware of the exploit you can find more info on its GitHub.
Okay, so what’s next? With kernel read/write, the next logical step would be to achieve some form of kernel code execution.
