it seems this is for an RCE exploit
Some things I know:
Minecraft: Wii U Edition is written in C++
———————————————————————–
if this is the idea:
minecraft Wii U MOST Likely gets sent data from the player’s username book and quills then signs.

so, im not that good with Wii U games but I think this may open up an anti-cheat patch
All love would like explanations bye!
@category-moderators move this to Technical Discussion ?
Read this please, not moving thread
Exploration of Remote Code Execution (RCE) vulnerabilities in Minecraft: Wii U Edition primarily leads to ENLBufferPwn (officially tracked as CVE-2022-47949).
While the exploit was most famously demonstrated in Mario Kart 8 and Splatoon, it theoretically affected a wide range of Wii U and 3DS titles due to a shared networking library developed by Nintendo.
Minecraft: Wii U Edition utilizes Nintendo’s P2P networking protocols for multiplayer.
Please do not rely on an AI chatbot. The only titles that we ever knew had this vulnerability was: Animal Crossing: New Horizons, ARMS, Mario Kart 7, Mario Kart 8 & 8 Deluxe, Super Mario Maker 2, Splatoon 1, Splatoon 2, I believe Splatoon 3 for some reason too?
The official page says it could have affected possibly more titles, but there are currently no mentions of Minecraft and we have no reason to believe there is a RCE vulnerability in Minecraft at this time.
alright yes, I did use AI but also I didn’t realize there would be ns games there also
Yeah, unfortunately it did affect Switch titles. Some Switch titles used similar network infrastructure to the Wii U and 3DS (although I wonder why Splatoon 3 and Nintendo Switch Sports were affected considering they use NPLN).
Watching a video rn and apperently ACNH’s RCE exploit was patch(ed)
for specific Minecraft: Wii U Edition since Legacy Console Edition (LCE)’s source code was leaked (not me) but couldn’t certain individuals check to see how packets are handled?
Will not be happening. Any person who we know has looked into leaked code will likely be banned from contributing to the project.
I assume you mean New Leaf? That’s a separate vulnerability and we found out about it through several reports sent to us, resulting in us promptly turning servers offline.
Servers would be turned offline for Minecraft if we had a concern with an RCE vulnerability
I heard from this video
about new leaf but the other video I watched said New Horiozons
Also, could the same patching thing work for Wii U?
If the Wii U did have a vulnerability and we made a patch, it would probably realistically work differently and a patch for any potential issue would potentially block off SSSL users.
Either way, as I’ll reiterate again: there is no known RCE vulnerability for Minecraft Wii U. If we end up finding one through clean room reverse engineering, then we will take all actions necessary to make sure users can play safely.
alr I kind of want to look deeper into this have a good day <3
LCE’s source code was leaked, although only that of PS3, XBox 360 and XBox One afaik.
There is no real proof that RCE exists in Minecraft WiiU; the minigames are simply set to “friends only” because of cheaters and bad moderation.
It’s not that “simple.” The leaked source code is from 2012, and the last Minecraft Wii U update was from 2018 (I think). A lot has certainly changed since then, making it incomparable to the 2012 source code. (2012 was before the Wii U port even existed.)
I see so guys who dosen’t want to edit the .rpx lol
