Greetings to all,
Those who own a Nintendo Switch, will certainly find this article of Interest. Apparently, an unpatchable vulnerability has been found In the Nvidia chip that allows users to run their code.

Quote:Heads up, Nintendo Switch fans — you soon might be able to run custom ROMs on your Switch, or back up games to your own hard drives.
That's because the ReSwitched project thinks it has found an unpatchable security vulnerability in Nvidia Tegra chips that would let users run unauthorized code on the Switch. To get it to work, you'd need to short out one of the pins on the right Joy-Con connector, which forces the Nintendo Switch into USB recovery mode. At this point, you'd load the exploit.
That's because this is a "cold boot" exploit which involves injecting code just as the Switch starts up.
