PS4 Kernel Exploit Released for 4.05 OFW

After teasing the exploit recently on Discord, SpecterDev has officially released his kernel exploit for PS4 firmware version 4.05.

Official announcement


Code:
https://github.com/Cryptogenic/PS4-4.05-Kernel-Exploit

TLDNR (From GitHub):
In this project you will find a full implementation of the "namedobj" kernel exploit for the PlayStation 4 on 4.05. It will allow you to run arbitrary code as kernel, to allow jailbreaking and kernel-level modifications to the system. This release however, does not contain any code related to defeating anti-piracy mechanisms or running homebrew. This exploit does include a loader that listens for payloads on port 9020 and will execute them upon receival.

In case you want to get a PS4 <=4.05

Never though I'd actually be happy about the fact that my PS4 has been in storage for a few months, but that means that once I finally manage to ship it to my new place I'll have a low enough firmware for this! Congrats to Specter and everyone else responsible!

Still got my fingers crossed for a ban-safe way to play online and keep the exploit by the time Monster Hunter World comes out.

after @SpecterDev released his exploit, i'll prepare stuff within a couple of days, someone need to backport it from 4.55 to 4.05, not hard to do. not sure if it will be a write-up or just snippets of code, let's see

Any word on PS4 Pro compatibility? This would be my time to hunt down a unit on 3.70, if it is supported.

I have a ps3 and I was banned from psn because of cfw, so don't expect anything safe soon
