21.02-04.03.00.00-00.00.00.0.1

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).

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!

Not sure when if a full CFW would be release, since there is no hypervisor exploit at the moment, you can play offline for now if you don't want to update the firmware.
Click to expand...
No when, but more like a question of if ever, since PS4 still doesnt have full CFW, and JB is fw dependant.
i bought GoW Ragnarok, but even offline need to be on a FW higher than 4.50

You can always look for another PS5 if you want, just that it probably be on higher firmware.

Nothing against this but really 2 gen ago. Why should I go ps5. oh 3 gen ago😉

If you mean because this is a PS2 exploit, it's not useful for PS4/5, then that is wrong. The PS2 exploit leads to an exploit with the emulator allowing userland code to be executed on the PS4/5. So you just need to be able to run arbitrary code in a PS2 game under this emulator to have userland code execution on the PS4/5. And Sony have said they will not patch this.

yeah, that's what I thought that was. I think the reason sony will not patch it is that it would require patching every single ps2 game, and there are a lot of ps2 purchases out there anyway. btw, do you know if you have to have bought a ps2 classic game to initiate the exploit?

You will need an exploitable game so yeah, purchasing one is required. But still a bit early to say exactly which ones can be used for this. Only Okage Shadow King is known to work right now.

I know I likely won't be for a while. I usually prefer to wait for things to mature a bit before jumping in (Maybe 1 year). But I at least still plan on learning what I can so I can help any who need it.

I probably won't hack my system since I'm a psn+ user, and I've become interested in trophies, but that won't stop me from compiling things for others if it's necessary and I can. there's a limited sdk, I believe, for the ps5, but nothing substantial as of yet.
