DSiWare VulnList

This lists DSiWare that might have vulnerabilities, like strcpy or sprintf from savedata. If you know of DSiWare that has English-only string(high-scores, player name, high-scores that use username from system settings, etc) input, mention it on IRC EFNet #dsidev. Or contact yellowstar 6 at gmail dot com. Before you contact anyone about your dsiware, please make sure your dsiware is _not_ listed on this page anywhere.

DSiWare savedata is extracted and modified with these tools: https://github.com/neimod/dsi

For these lists status "None" means code reversing engineering for the DSiWare wasn't started. Status "Started" means code reversing engineering for that DSiWare was started. Status "Done" means code reverse engineering was finished.

DSiWare that can be crashed

Name	Input type(s)	Status	Regions	Developer	Points	Description
Dark Void Zero	High-Scores	Done	USA/EUR	Capcom	500	No limit on length of drawn record names, no vuln with high-scores. The level var from savedata doesn't have any bounds check, this is used with array indexes. This is not exploitable since the array structs only contain char* strings and other fields, and that var is used with level class init. Level class init fail is most likely the cause of the crash which isn't exploitable, level paths are determined by if statements and the level object is used uninitialized when the level var is out-of-bounds.
Frogger Returns	High-scores	Started	USA	Konami	500	Has ASCII null-terminated high-scores. Manged to crash this game. The high-score draw function uses strcpy to copy the records' name to a static buffer, it's unknown if this is exploitable.
Guitar Rock Hero	High-scores	Started	USA/EUR	Gameloft	500	Has ASCII strings for high-scores. Overwriting high-scores with a 0x194f-byte string caused the game to crash.
Legends of Exidia	Player name	Started	USA/EUR/JP	Gameloft	800	Has ASCII player name in one file, and UCS-2 player name in a profile file. This game was crashed by modifying strings in the profile savedata file.
Sudoku	Player name	Done	USA/EUR	EA	200	Has ASCII player name for each of the 3 save slots. Game was crashed with an excessively long player name. The game has already been exploited through Sudokuhax.

DSiWare with incomplete analysis

Name	Input type(s)	Status	Description
Advanced Circuits	Profile names	Started	Save slots are obfuscated, the algorithm is understood for all but the first save slot. The checksum calculation is unknown.

DSiWare with finished analysis

Name	Input type(s)	Description

Arcade Hoops Basketball	High-Scores, names via settings	Has ASCII high-scores with null terminated strings, no string bugs.
Bookworm	High-scores and word list	Has ASCII null-terminated high-score list names and null-terminated word list strings. ( No crash, just nice very high scores, and very long words displayed. )
Dracula	No manual input	Savedata contains ASCII high-scores from DSi username, and ASCII perks/powerups. High-scores doesn't have string bugs.
Escapee Go	None	Has high-scores without names, scores are ASCII null-terminated strings. Managed to semi-crash this, but system reset still worked so this probably isn't exploitable.
Paul's Shooting Adventure	High-Scores	Records are entered when you complete the game, names are ASCII strings null-terminated. Not exploitable.
Primrose	High-scores	Has English-only high-scores and a trivial checksum, not exploitable.
