No, the details are not public yet.
There is a significant difference in making a custom rom, and explaining how you can gain access to thousands of remote miners out there.

Custom ROM is intented to use on your own hardware.

My hack is intented to remotely control another miner, making it useless to the owner, since he can no longer login.

Ok.
But just wanted to check its different than brute-forcing the credentials of the remote miner
And loading your custom rom on it.

And would like to confirm that a true factory reset (not software - but the physical hold for 5 seconds to load image from rom, etc)
is unable to restore the miner to its default.

Code:

DESCRIPTION = "Daemon to monitor power button"
LICENSE = "GPL"
LIC_FILES_CHKSUM = "file://COPYING;md5=d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e"

SRC_URI = "file://monitor-pwbtn.c \
file://init \
file://factory_config_reset.sh \
file://COPYING \
"

S = "${WORKDIR}"

do_compile() {
make monitor-pwbtn
}

do_install() {
install -d ${D}${bindir}
install -m 0755 ${WORKDIR}/monitor-pwbtn ${D}${bindir}
install -m 0755 ${WORKDIR}/factory_config_reset.sh ${D}${bindir}

install -d ${D}${sysconfdir}/init.d
install -m 0755 ${WORKDIR}/init ${D}${sysconfdir}/init.d/monitor-pwbtn
update-rc.d -r ${D} monitor-pwbtn start 70 S .
}

A 'true' factory reset does exactly the same on sofware level then a 'software' factory reset Wink

Just some minor details change, the miner connects to a server of KnC to get some info, that's it.
