First BD-J + Kernel access exploit provided by Sleirsgoevy (29/9/22)

Note: Though there are three USERLAND exploits and one KERNEL exploit, there are no public HYPERVISOR exploits available to complete the full exploit chain. A hypervisor exploit was rumoured to be held in private that only works on <3.00 firmware, and recently Flatz confirmed he has developed his own 2.50 HV exploit (kept private) which was chained from a PS4 save game, and has successfully dumped PlayStation Secure Processor (27/07/23).

Spoiler: Hacking Timeline

As of August 4th 2022: We can now install PS4/PS5 PKG games and updates (and by extension FPKGs) however official PKGs cannot be run unless you legitimately owned them previously digitally and have a licence for them on your current console, or if you own the disc (for update pkgs).

As of October 6th PS4 FPKG can be played on 4.03 OFW thanks to Sliersgoevy FPKG enabler!

Payload: https://gbatemp.net/download/4-03-fpkg-enabler-hen.38248/

As of October 21st PS4 FPKG can be played on 4.50 thanks to cheburek3000 porting offsets.

Payload: https://gbatemp.net/download/4-50-fpkg-enabler-hen.38279/

As of October 25th theflow0 fixes BD-J path traversal and native code execution for 7.61
https://x.com/theflow0/status/1717088032031982066?s=46&t=PIYQV4jmWEyCbVfx3Nx26g

As of November 4th ktuff is fixed for 4.51:

Payload: https://gbatemp.net/download/fpkg-enabler-4-51-hen.38306/

Nov 7th PS5 backups loaded via Itemzflow by Lightningmodz and Echostretch. Fully decrypted dumps require system files bundled into them in order to run without crashing with Libhijacker (no hen required), details here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/ps5-exploit-guide.613891/page-109#post-10290677

As of November 30th ps5debug has been released by SiSTR0: https://github.com/GoldHEN/ps5debug
Mirror: https://gbatemp.net/download/ps5debug.38333/

Dec 1st: first PS5 trainer (Dark Souls) is completed ready for the imminent release of REAPER Multi Trainer II by CTN.

Dec 25th: PS5 back up loading via ITEMZFLOW now released: https://pkg-zone.com/details/ITEM00001

As of Jan 2nd 2024 Sleirsgoevy has ported K-Stuff offsets for 3.xx firmwares.

As of Jan 4th 2024 LM had added 3.XX Kstuff to Itemzflow meaning 3.XX-4.51 is now supported for PS4/PS5 backups and dumping.

1: Never enable IDU mode.
If you do you will need to enter staff mode by holding L1 + L2 and tapping this combo: circle, cross, square, triangle, right D-Pad. Release L1 + L2 and you can access settings to exit IDU.

2: Try to stay on the lowest FW possible and wait it out for hacks.

If you are on 1.XX-2.XX do not update at all, it may take years but HV exploit exists in private for this firmware range.
If you are on 3.XX-4.02: the advice is to update to 4.03, but don’t be tempted to update to 4.51 yet.

3: PS5 FPKGs won’t work as HEN and HV/kernel patches do not publicly exist for PS5 content yet.

4: Installing legit game PKGs you do not own will not work, even if spoofed.

5: If you get stuck in a boot loop at the PS logo, this means the SNVS is corrupted (if hash check fails on boot this causes a “soft brick”).

It’s not “bricked”, just reinstall your current firmware RECOVERY PUP in safe mode!

Just unboxed my second PS5, FW is 4.00
CFI-1116A 01V PH2.

The first one is still on 3.20,
CFI-1116A 01Y (without the PH2).

Noticed that the 3.20 got only one of the round closure sticker on the box (center), while the 4.00 got two of them (left/right).

 

[MasterJ360]

Finally have free time being off work to try this on my dusty ps5 lol. I'll have to figure out how to stop the noisy sound of Re4 Remake. Also is the Homebrew app connection currently down or is it just me? Crunchyroll (NoPSN) stopped working too sadly.

iive bought a fat psV just now.

My fw is 22.02-06.02.00.04.
I know that i will not update,but would know: can i set internet connection? If yes,do you know which are the right settings/ DNS for blocking updating?

Use either AlAzif DNS (though I don’t think it’s filtering update addresses) so you should probably use the nomadic2000 one.

AL-AZIF WEB HOST:
DNS 1: 165.227.83.145
DNS 2: 192.241.221.79

NOMADIC20000 HOST:
DNS 1: 62.210.38.117
(Leave DNS 2 blank)

PERSONALLY, I would use filtering on my router or simply don’t use internet on your console while AlAzif DNS is down.

Target $350 PS5 Disc BF Deal

Was able to snag the Target $350 Model CFI-1215A Disc this morning. Haven't opened it yet, but they all appear to come with 22.02-06.02.00.04-00.00.00.0.1 firmware. Since I already have a Day1 Disc PS5 on 1.02, planned on using this one as an actual system to update and play. Is there a likely-hood of a 6.02 being able to access some sort of cfw?

As my guide says:

cfi-1116a: 3.00-5.50

But it all depends on manufacture date…

 

[Seraphic]

I see... Guess I should open up and enjoy it, huh?

You better check and make sure it's a disc version the picture you posted where it says $350 says digital only.

 

[Seraphic]

Picked it up few hour ago and was indeed a sealed disc PS5. MSRP was $500 -$150 = $350+tax, great deal for a 6nm 1200 series.

 

[Jayinem]

That's a fantastic deal you almost never see consoles get discounted that much. I guess it's too late for me to get one.

Went live at at midnight, but you can try your luck if you have a target account with circle.
Go here and add to account: https://www.target.com/circle/o/target-circle/-/780356170
Then go here and see if pickup store has stock: https://www.target.com/p/playstation-5-console/-/A-87716467

My guess was it was a fire sale by Sony to clear old V1 stock and make room for the V2 Slims.

Yeah I have two stores where I live both out of stock. Oh well.

 

[MasterJ360]

I hate to be a Grinch, but we wont see the OG models in local stores then you have to consider scalpers have most of them by now. The V1's were selling like hot cakes back then - hell even when I formerly worked at Target I couldn't get 1 lol

Even on PS4 you didn't have to be logged into PSN to use Chiaki, but it still required account activation to register to get it to work and I think this does too.
