The NDS Videoguard Conditional Access System, which was recently selected by Premiere to provide better content security, has reportedly been compromised by hackers. It is reported that since September 30, it has been possible to view the newly encrypted signals using emulation.

According to the information, DF said there was an interception of a firmware update to Premiere set-top boxes.

Already in August, there were indications of a potential problem, and Hackers became very interested. Internet reports say they were able to discover a new vPlug 2.3.8 designed for the new DVB cards, which are temporary support for some Premiere "program packets."

Emulation has been able to decode Premiere programming channels Direkt, Blue Movie, (one of the erotic channels) as well as Premiere 1-4. Other channels have been confirmed working as well.

Aint too long till Dave comes around!:p

Dont' hold your breath.

From a very knowledgeable/respected coder; read that European providers using NDS are in the process of updating all customers so are currently using some sort of "get by" encryption that is far from full blown NDS security.

Once they switch back to "real NDS security" this fly-by-night hack will go bye bye.
