Hacking PS4 5.xx Rest mode Kernel exploit revealed

[KiiWii]

They went after geohot due to an actual legal issue. The hacking was just a bonus.

The posting of root keys.

Yeah! That thing. Had he not done that, he'd have been left alone.

PS3 with OOS: went for and sued Geohot

Geohot was just the face in front of the hack--he was not the dev behind it. He took others works and publicly shared it and the reason he got crucified for it was because it exposed vulnerabilities in Sony's network--which is all they care about.

If there is an exploit that is released that has nothing to do with Sony's network, they will not pursue any action against it. Savewizard is a perfect example of this and the people behind this have confirmed this with me. As long as the hack stays offline, Sony will not bother with it. Once a hack compromises the Sony network, they will use the full extent of their power to shut it down and make an example out of anyone that dares to release it.

I don't see what kind of case they'd have against Dax....

No idea, but it was pretty early on so they might not have even needed a case. Who was that guy in Europe that was doing loads of RE'ing that they went after? I can't remember his name, but I do remember he used to post really emotional stuff about how he'd rather die in jail than stop doing it.

EDIT: Graf_chokolo!

dropping hints, not necessarily rest mode but a promising list...

@peteruk

Is there an interesting game in 4.55 that is not in 4.50? (I do not want to upload the version to prevent).

 

[Selim873]

Oh man, I hope this will let me extract my MHW save data. Didn't someone make a tool to convert a PS3 Dragons Dogma save to work on PC? I don't want to start over when the PC release comes out lol

Depends on your firmware and if you think its worth it.

Stay low is always the key, but @mathieulh usually knows something we dont.

Yep, I remember him saying more than a year ago to be on 4.05 and it turned out to be good advice.

So now over at hax there is enable_vr payload and a firmware spoofer

Progress is amazingly fast!

Perhaps we will see progress towards higher FW exploits soon.

I'm more interested in the firmware spoofing part since I don't own a VR.

Got my Persona 5 disc ready in case they release a method for dumping/playing 4.07 games.

Try his latest vortex HEN payload with spoof + VR, try start the disc, try dump it

From what I read, it might dump ok but you won't be able to launch it. While I'm sure the fix will probably be for the launching part, I'll probably wait a bit just in case there's also a fix to the dumper itself.

spoof>dump>elf fw patcher>pkg it up>try install and try load?

Doesn't work, and I'm not brave enough to try clicking Update Now to see if it bypasses that way.

 

[subcon959]

I should add that the game did install at least so that's something. We just need a way to extend the spoof so it runs enough to start decryption so it can be dumped.

Interesting.

Can you FTP into installed game location?
