Blu-ray hacked - HDCP Master Key Confirmed
Blu-ray hacked - HDCP Master Key Confirmed
Good news for all movie addicts; the Blu-ray HDCP encryption is completely hacked & the hack is confirmed by Intel.
Intel spokesman Tom Waldrop said after 2 days of investigation, the company had informed its partners and licensees that the key, which was posted online last week, was indeed legitimate, according to PCMag.com.
"We have tested this published material that was on the Web," Intel spokesman Tom Waldrop said. "It does produce product keys... the net of that means that it is a circumvention of the code."
According to Scott Crosby "the master secret can be calculated from the secret keys stored on several TV's, computer monitors, or video players & millions of HDCP supporting video cards and TV's are in people's homes all over the world." He already published an article about this 9 years ago(!)
Now it's just a matter of time when a Chinese, or Taiwanese manufacturer will develop a mediaplayer/blu-ray player with build-in HDCP decryption.
The Blu-ray disc protection is already hacked by SlySoft's AnyDVD HD ripper software.
