Hackers unlock homebrew access on Nintendo Switch 2 via SmileBasic exploit

Security researchers have reported a new exploit that gives users unauthorized homebrew access to the Nintendo Switch 2. The method, referred to as the "Userland" exploit, takes advantage of an integer overflow flaw in the SmileBasic interpreter. Because the flaw lies in software that the console runs, it raises concerns about the device's security defenses. The report is based on the Ars Technica article, and the source material available here does not specify exact dates or the full scope of affected systems.
