    Fascinating times we live in, when "the last hypervisor bug" in what is presumably one of the most hardened pieces of consumer hardware can be found by "noobs" and "slop kiddies".

      Makes you wonder if it really was "noobs" and "slop kiddies" that found it.

        No, it doesn't. Nobody would go do this just to report it to Sony for a few pennies. That is a non-existent motivation for people in the know, who understand the opportunity cost.

          Unless they didn't want to actually make money from anything nefarious, and the bounty was more than just "a few pennies"
