PS5 Exploit Guide

PS5 Hack Status:

FW Ranges:
2.XX = HEN+Kstuff+HV = PS4/5 backups, possible keys exploit (WebKit: 2.50 best / 2.7X max)
3.XX = HEN+Kstuff+HV+Linux = PS4/5 backups, possible keys exploit (WK/BDJB/LUA: 3.20 best / 3.21 max)
4.XX = HEN+Kstuff+HV+Linux = PS4/5 backups (WK/Y2JB/BDJB/LUA: 4.50 best / 4.51 max)
5.XX = HEN+Kstuff+HV+Linux = PS4/5 backups (WK/Y2JB/BDJB/LUA: 5.50 best + max)
6.XX = HEN+Kstuff = PS4/5 backups, HV+Linux for 6.02 max (Y2JB/BDJB/LUA: 6.50 best + max)
7.XX = HEN+Kstuff = PS4/5 backups, no HV (Y2JB/BDJB/LUA: 7.61 best + max)
8.XX-10.01 = HEN+ Kstuff = PS4/5 backups, no HV (Y2JB/LUA)
10.20-12.00 = KEX + Kstuff = PS4/5 backups, no HV (LUA)
12.02-12.70 = KEX (P2JB/SWRR)
13.XX = No KEX/HEN/Kstuff/HV (LUA)

NOTE: Recommended firmware is subjective. Staying low is always suggested first & foremost. It is not recommended to update too many major versions (e.g., 4.xx to 5.xx or 7.xx to 8.xx) because you should remain low unless all you want is backups.

DO NOT UPDATE OVER 12.00!! P2JB can take over 3 hrs to trigger an exploit.

Hypervisor (HV):
Highest known HV exploit: 6.02
Highest theoretical HV exploit: 7.XX
Highest implemented HV exploit: 1.00-4.51 (Cragson PS5Hen) / 3.00-6.02 (TheFlow)
*unreleased/unimplemented

Kernel (KEX):
Highest public Release: 12.70
Highest known: 12.70 (P2JB)
UMTX2: 1.00-7.61
Lapse: 1.00-10.01
Poopsploit: 4.XX-12.00
P2JB: X.XX-12.70

Userland (UL):
LUA: 2.00-LATEST (LUA game exploit, chain Lapse up to 10.01)
Y2JB: 4.03-12.60 (YouTube exploit, + Lapse up to 10.01)
NFNH: 4.03-12.XX (Netflix exploit, + Lapse up to 10.01)
YARPE: 4.03-12.XX (Ren'Py exploit, + Lapse up to 10.01)
BD-JB: 1.00-7.61 (Blu Ray exploit + UMTX2, 8.00-12.40 via UN BD JB + Poopsploit)
Webkit: 1.00-5.50 (PSFREE +UMTX2) (up to 13.20 coming soon)
Mast1C0re: 1.00-7.61 (PS2 backups)
LuaC0re: 10.20-12.02 (Star Wars RR: + Poopsploit up to 12.00)

NOTE: A userland entry exploit (UL) chained to kernel exploit (KEX) is required at a bare minimum to exploit your console.

NOTE 2: Since 12.60/13.00 Sony has removed the YouTube and Netflix apps and has added 30 day expirations to downloaded software used for LuaC0re/Mast1C0re/RenPy etc.

Digital consoles will now need a new webkit userland to hack their consoles as of 19/04/2026)

Preparing Your Console:

It is recommended to either self-host offline or block these addresses in your router to avoid accidental updates or getting an update nag. Using the DNS method is no longer failsafe, as these are not guaranteed to be running 24/7.

To determine your OFW version:
Go to settings > system > console information.

Version string info:
Year.Half (1st/2nd half of the year)-Major Version No.Minor Version No.Extended info-Further Info.Retail/Debug

21.02-04.03.00.00-00.00.00.0.1

It is recommended to keep your console as low as possible to have access to better jailbreak stability and features. Stay as low as possible within the "Golden" firmware brackets that apply to your current firmware.

Current Examples:
2.00 could be updated to 2.50 maximum to retain Webkit/BD-JB/LUA HV + KEX + HEN.
4.00 could be updated to 4.51 maximum for WebKit/BD-JB/LUA + KEX + HEN + potential HV exploits.
5.00 could be updated to 5.50 maximum for WebKit/BD-JB/LUA + KEX + HEN.
6.XX-7.XX could be updated to 7.61 maximum for HEN using only BD-JB or LUA.
Digital/Pro users on 6.XX-LATEST cannot use BDJB or LUA without an activated console. Wekbit does not go beyond 5.50 for now.
Digital/Pro users or Disc console users on 8.XX-LATEST should consider waiting or selling/swapping consoles to get a lower firmware.
(No jailbreak is ever guaranteed. No developer is obliged to release anything publicly)

WARNING:
Only update OFW manually via USB by getting the firmware file from HERE and installing from <USB>:/PS5/UPDATE/PS5UPDATE.PUP

  2. You will need a BD dive paired to your Slim/Pro console, or an OG Phat model on 1.00-7.61 to run this exploit.

    Viktorious AIO Auto BD-JB ISO for 4.XX-7.61: https://github.com/Viktorious-x/ps5-bdjb-modified-ISOs/releases
    (Alternative: UMTX Kernel exploit 7.61 JAR loader by Hammer83: https://github.com/hammer-83/ps5-jar-loader/releases)

    Burn ISO to a blank BD-R or BD-RE, put it into your console, and click on the [DISC PLAYER] icon.
    Highlight [PIPELINE RUNNER] then click option 2 [Normaljailbreak-etaHEN-UMTX1.pipe] to auto load etaHEN ready for ItemzFlow.
    Debug settings will be loaded, and the package installer can be found under [SETTINGS] > [DEBUG SETTINGS].
    ELF Loader will be running on your PS5 IP: port 9021


  3. Important:
    Up to 10.01 has a kernel exploit + HEN
    11.XX-12.70 has a kernel exploit but no HEN yet.
    LUA entry point works on the latest OFW, but there is no kernel or HEN yet.
    (A compatible PS4 game is required to launch the exploit on PS5. See below)

    Your PS5 console must be activated to use save copying for PS4 games.

    1. Insert your game disc and, as soon as possible, make a save file within it.
    2. Copy the save files to USB, go to [SETTINGS] > [STORAGE] > [CONSOLE STORAGE] > [SAVE DATA] > [PS4 GAMES] > select the game save and copy to a USB drive.
    3. On PC, using a Google Drive account, make a new folder with the GAME ID of your game, and upload the savedata & savedata.bin files to that folder.
    4. Share the folder, set it to editor mode, share with anyone, and click "copy the link".
    5. Join the HTOS Discord group: HERE type "/decrypt", select "FALSE" for including SCE_SYS, paste or type in the Google Drive link, and press enter. The bot should begin mounting your save. (If it doesn't, paste in the link again.)
    6. Click "ENCRYPTED" to remove the Sony PFS layer. Download the generated files and extract the folder to your desktop (you should have 4 files in there and be named dec_savedata_CUSA[GAME ID]).
    7. Using REMOTE LUA LOADER, open the savedata folder, copy the 20 files within into your encrypted save folder on your desktop.
    8. Upload the encrypted save folder (now with 24 files in) to your Google Drive. It should be named "dec_savedata_CUSA[GAME ID]" where GAME ID is your games 5 digit number, and set it to editor mode, share with anyone, and then click "copy the link".
    9. Go back to the HTOS discord server, and type "/encrypt", hit "FALSE" for uploading individually, and "FALSE" to include SCE_SYS. Finally, hit shared_gd_link and paste in your link to the original save (4 files) folder. (If it doesn't, paste in the link again.)
    10. When this is done, paste the link to the decrypted save (24 files) folder, and the bot will encrypt the files.
    11. Resign the files by typing "/resign" followed by your account name on the console, or PSN ID associated with that account if using the latest OFW.
    12. Download the resigned files, extract the files to your USB drive and overwrite them into the savedata folder on your USB or external drive.
    13. Copy the saves back to your console [SETTINGS] > [SAVE DATA AND GAME/APP SETTINGS] > [SAVE DATA PS4] > [COPY OR DELETE FROM USB] > [COPY TO CONSOLE STORAGE] > select your game save folder from the USB drive and copy/overwrite old save data.
    14. Load LUA game again, and you should see the LUA LOADER screen.
    15. You can use "SEND_LUA.PY" to send the UMTX files to the loader.
    (NOTE: Some games require manual loading of save game)

    On firmware up to 7.61, you can now load UMTX/2 followed by etaHEN by sending the files to your console IP on PORT 9026.
    On firmware 8.00-LATEST, you can connect with the REMOTE LUA LOADER APP to send debug notifications or FTP on port 1337.

  9. This method modifies the BD-J stack to allows BDJB to be re-enabled on your higher firmware console up to 12.40.

    This requires your console to be hacked via another method first to gain access to alter the files.
    (For example 12.00 needs SWRR disc to hack it first)

    https://github.com/Gezine/BD-UN-JB

    DO NOT REINSTALL FW, IT WILL WIPE THE PATCH AND LOSE BD-JB


Additional Information:

PS4 GAME INFORMATION:
OFW 1.xx cannot run PS4 games.
OFW 2.xx runs PS4 games up to 8.03
OFW 3.xx runs PS4 games up to 8.52
OFW 4.xx runs PS4 games up to 9.04
OFW 5.xx runs PS4 games up to 9.60
OFW 6.xx runs PS4 games up to 10.50
OFW 7.xx runs PS4 games up to 11.00
OFW 8.xx/9.xx runs PS4 games up to 11.50
OFW 10.xx runs PS4 games up to 12.00
OFW 11.xx runs PS4 games up to 12.50
OFW 12.xx runs PS4 games up to 13.00

(Note: PS4 backported FPKGs also work perfectly on an exploited PS5 with Kstuff)

You can install free/demo PKGS (legit pkgs) via the debug pkg installer, provided you have all the files/json/licences required.
(Astro’s Playroom has no licences and can be installed and played from official pkgs and updated inline with your firmware)

Warnings:

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 for hacks on that firmware.

3: PS5 FPKGs do not work. A hack for the A53 processor does not publicly exist to enable installing PS5 content as FPKG/PKG.

4: Installing legit game PKGs you do not own will never work, even if spoofed.

5: If you get stuck in a boot loop at the PS logo, the SNVS is corrupted (if the hash check fails on boot, this causes a “soft brick”). It’s not “bricked”. Simply reinstall your current firmware RECOVERY PUP in safe mode from USB: PS5 > UPDATE > PS5UPDATE.PUP.

You know what, i had a so-called glitch in the matrix too yesterday and on other occasions when starting a game it would just say can't start or something like that... No change from the previous days when i used the console.... No explanation whatsoever...

I replaced kstuff with ftp but no dice, turns out elf-arsenal was just having a hissy fit. I deleted the elf-arsenal folder in the data folder and then booted back into it instead of using the old etaHEN, back to working now.

Also decided to bite the bullet and get one of those ps5 specific m.2 coolers. I found one that is actually thicker than the SK hynix or Sabrent coolers. Bonus points for it only being £5 too. Doesn't fit the slim apparently due to the extra height it has, 10mm instead of 8mm compared to those other heatsinks, but I've seen slim compatible versions too.

Using it now in place of the original heatsink that came on my MP600 drive. It even has a pad for the bottom, which in my case directly contacts the metal plate on the ps5 (cfi-1200 model) so it cools two of the chips on the bottom of my drive.
20260608_142553.jpg

Dropped my temps by about 10c on the m.2, now it's sitting in the mid 60s in games rather than mid to high 70s.

Also anyone with an nvme with a bundled heatsink, please check it. I had no idea but there are two nand chips on the back of my ssd, and they didn't have any thermal pad at all, this was from factory. I have plenty of free space so hopefully it wasn't using those chips yet, but that could be really bad for anyone who has the MP600, or any other drive, and is using all of the space on it.

So is ffpfsc becoming the new standard now? I was waiting for confirmation from others that game performance wasn't affected but it seems like most are switching over now?

Not every payload has to cater to you directly. I also plan to support a plethora of other controllers. And the code is open source for others to add support for other controllers

I encourage it, this all takes me a lot of time (and money) so any help is appreciated

I only own Xbox and switch controllers so I don’t plan on buying more atm i just purchased another ps5 to make developing and testing these easier

Great work! I prefer Xbox (style) controllers over PS controllers. Xbox controllers just fit my hands better and cause no pain/ache after long gaming sessions (which PS4 and 5 controllers do unfortunately).

I have a shit ton of controllers by the way if you need more testing. Mobapad, 8bitdo, official Switch 1 and 2 pro.

but an xbox controller in the ps5 is a complete downgrade, just exactly like everything actually but specially xbox. The home of the vaporware.

I disagree. Also, stick drift is more common on ps5 controllers than xbox controllers. And you can fully use your xbox one controllers on xbox series. So I don't get the vaporware reference?

Wow that's crazy. I was just shopping around for a controller this morning and then I came across this!

Tried a X/S Controller as well as an Elite Series 2 controller and they both worked great! Only issue I came across is that D-Pad clicks are toggle (so it just goes indefinitely in the direction pressed, as opposed to a single click). Also feels like in menus, I have to double click to get it to go some times, but in-game it was flawless.

Elite back peddles seemed to do whatever they were last mapped to do on Xbox.

Thank you for doing this!

I have the following controllers:
  • Wii U Pro Controller,
  • Switch Joy-Cons (with the Joy-Con charging grip)
  • Switch Pro Controller,
  • a few NSO controllers (N64, GameCube, SNES),
  • Switch 2 Joy-Cons (with the Joy-Con charging grip)
  • XBOX 360 Controller
  • XBOX Wireless Controller (1697, 1914)
  • DS3, DS4 (with back button attachments), DS5
  • Gulikit KK3 Pro
  • DOYOKY Epoch
So if you make a hid dumper and you'd like me to dump some of these for you, do let me know. You probably have most of these anyway. :D

Zero clue where they are at so that would be a huge help

I had to move 2 months ago and I lost so much stuff idk how lol It took me over an hour to find one of several Xbox one s controllers I own 🙃

I got a surprise pull request, so a few more controllers will be supported later on assuming nothing major breaks ! (I can’t test until after work)

xdddddddddd <-- only possible answer. oh, and the batteries is an upgrade.

I go to reformulate the question. From all the big amount of good controllers out there to adapt, is that macroscam shit controller the important one, seriously?
