Confirmed: New System Update Software V2.01 for PSP Available

WARNING: HOMEBREWS/LOADERS CAN’T BE EXECUTED ON PSP WITH SYSTEM VERSION 1.51 OR ABOVE. Currently the downgrade is only available for v2.0 PSPs. Make sure you REALLY know this fact and WANT to upgrade to the new version!!!

UPDATE2: Japanese PSP Official website has been updated with the latest information:

This update is released for fixing the security flaw found in the system software v2.0 from October, 3rd.

CAUTION: This update is only for customers who obtained PSP (PlayStation Portable) for Japan which model number is PSP-1000 or PSP-1000 K or PSP-1000 KCW. Upon completion of preparing, we will announce update information for the other countries/areas customers via SCE Group Web Site or other channels . For these customers who obtained PSP in the other countries/areas, please DO NOT update PSP through this web site. There are no guarantee of proper operation of the other PSP.

So, this time it doesn’t void your warranty? From what we can tell so far, this patch is made to beef up security which I’m 99% sure is a direct effect from the toc2rta buffer overflow.

Also, the North American PSP official website has not been updated.
