Hacking Developing Exploits and KExploits

[RebelJake17]

Hello everyone! I'm currently a first-semester college student getting a bachelor's degree in Network Security a little back story to what pushed me into this field was HomeBrew on the Wii. Ever since I first installed the HomeBrew channel and dumped my nand I wanted to be able to figure out how to develop my own exploits for consoles and since the PS4 exploitation arena seems to be a nice and active arena to get into I'd like to join the community in writing exploits for the PS4 now I know this isn't an easy task to do and there's a lot I will need to learn I just need some guidence on where to start this learning process. Everyones gotta start somewhere this will be my starting point. Thank you for any helpful replies.

Easy, just open up visual basic, type "hax ps4", save as exe and run on Linux

Well if you know programming look at the 1.76 kexploit and implement the same thing with the new 4.55 exploit

There's nothing to do with what you major and what you wanted to achieve here. I used to work for a sec. firm and only 50% of them were CS/EE/Math majored. If you really want to do what you said you wanted to, you shouldn't waste your time here. Go read some write-ups on Github or elsewhere.

I'm not sure if this will help but I guess you can start here;

The PS4 has already been exploited but not (so successfully) on newer firmware's.
I can't help that much, its all I know . And you don't need to be a computer science major (well, in technicality yes you do, but having the proper knowledge on hand is good enough.)
