CrashSB CrashSB is a program featuring a bug I discoverd. What it does It crashes SB (this also means unsaved data will be lost, so please save everything before doing this. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!). Then the 3DS error handler comes in and takes you back to the home menu and then restarts the system. How to use it This only works in edit mode. After running the program, the user will be prompted to enter CLEAR in direct mode. After that, They have to enter CRASH to crash SB. How it works It is pretty simple, yet confusing. This program defines three variables and a function called CRASH. Once the user clears the RAM and the executes the function, SmileBASIC doesn't know what to do and crashes. The confusing part is that normally when a variable is not defined, it will simply give an undifined variable error. CLEAR only works in direct mode, so that's why the user needs to type it in manually. I discovered this glitch while working on a CHIP-8 intepreter. Can this be exploited? Turns out people are exploiting other bugs to launch the homebrew channel. Fixed in 3.3.2.

Instructions:

Run the program in edit mode, enter CLEAR in the console, then enter CRASH.

BGSCREEN 0,888888,888888 can also do it (I think)?

There a multiple iterations of this bug apparently. This is the one I discovered.

I'll try, if I can get access to Miiverse.

Done.

Yes, this command will crash the interpreter and does not require user input.

True, this program was kinda pointless :P

This will be PERFECT in MyPet! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!! >:3

Lol

Wow, already with that homebrew in the end. Wonder if SBHax will be possible....

I didn't know SmileBasic had their own verified user! Much less that they had a Bug Support Thread! Why can't more games have this? Actually, No! I like breaking Rainmaker >:3

An application for homebrew running a homebrew application that runs more homebrew in which runs homebrew applications. Homebrewception. EDIT: SOMEONE TELL SMEALUM!!!

That was super confusing, my head can't wrap around it... You tell smealum.

I don't have twitter because i think having social media is stupid

While Smealum may appreciate being told about SmileBasic - if he doesn't already know, which I think is highly unlikely - this particular program would probably hold no interest for him.

My opinion on this is that if Smealum does know about it, he probably doesn't care, and if he doesn't, we don't need him bashing BASIC lol Also, I get the feeling this is less exploitable than you might think. Your sandboxed system can crash at an unsandboxed level, but that doesn't mean you can get arbitrary code outside the sandbox. But what do I know.

Lumage, you know a lot.

Yeah, how does crashing SB run arbitrary code?
