TSS

The TSS file is the universal source of trust for PlayStation Home.

It is the first file fetched from the CDN at startup, and the one that defines the entire environment the client should connect to.

Domains

  • secure.$(env).homeps3.online.scee.com
    • The string $(env) gets replaced at runtime by the Clients, based on the currently active environment. For example, this could be cprod, cqa-a, cpreprod, etc…

Contents

  • (Optional) Maintenance mode flag
  • (Optional) Scene ID redirects
  • SHA-1 of downloaded files to validate against.
    • Only very specific files can be inserted here, as the game will ignore unexpected entries.
  • DNS Overrides
    • These allow the game to outright refuse to connect if any of the matching subnets are detected as the system’s DNS.
    • Additionally, upon error the game would report to Sony the player using a specific blacklisted DNS.
  • CDN URL and Base64-encoded AES key to decrypt the SHARC Archives.
  • RabbitMQ connection
  • SSFW connection
  • …
