Latest OFW: 7.20 (19/04/23)
Highest PS5 OFW hackable: 4.51 (highest for Znulls new method)
Highest for Mast1c0re native code exec: 6.00 (unreleased)
Highest for Mast1c0re PS2 classics: 6.50 (relies on offsets)

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 exploit chain, so there is no chance of HEN, and therefore no PS4/PS5 backup loading yet.

(Note: a hypervisor exploit is rumoured to be held in private that works on <2.50 firmware).

• 4.51 OFW for BD-JB entry point.
• 3.00/3.20/3.21/4.02/4.03/4.50/4.51 OFW for webkit entry point
• No firmware requirement for Mast1c0re PS2 classics entry point

NOTE: NEVER TURN ON IDU MODE

NOTE 2: Always stay on the lowest FW possible, if you are on 3.00-4.03 etc, don’t be tempted to update to 4.51 yet, stay as low as possible for now.

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”).

DONT WORRY it’s not “bricked”, just reinstall your current firmwares RECOVERY PUP in safe mode!

I have some PS4 Games installed on PS5,can i add this to whitelist and without the disc?

 

[spoggi]

The process was live streamed, but I don't really want to watch a 3+ hour live stream to figure out exactly how it was done.

I can understand that. Neither would i
But then again, i could skip the video

 

[godreborn]

Eurgh Grabman….

I put him on my ignore list a while back for some reason. I do remember him bragging that he had 2 or 3 thousand ps4 games across 3 hdds on his exploited ps4.

 

[KiiWii]

This is genius IMHO:

 

[godreborn]

you could theoretically put the pt demo on the ps5 by having it already on the ps4. all you have to do is put it on a disk, then connect it to the system. this does in fact work.

What HEN for PS5?don't believe..

What HEN for PS5?don't believe..

There is no HEN yet, this is a POC for easy loading when it becomes reality

 

[godreborn]

@KiiWii , off topic, but I think in the final dungeon of berseria. it took me a little over a month, I think, to get a little over 60 hours. much better than the 3 years it took me to beat dragon quest xi. lol hopefully, I can keep this momentum. I'm going to try to get the rest of the trophies in berseria, as long as it doesn't require new game plus like all the tales have.

 

[spoggi]

A little update. Hope i or others haven't posted this before

Guys the ps5 horizon bundle have software version 4.xx?

Where to get your hands on a 4.03 or 4.05 PS5 console​

So, if you’re looking to buy such a console, where would you look?

Disclaimer: eBay/Amazon links below are affiliate links. If you buy through our links, you don’t pay anything additional but we get a small commission on the sale.

First of all, forget about mainstream stores such as Amazon or Walmart: PS5s sell like hotcakes, so the models they have are most likely newer firmwares by now. The exception being the Horizon Forbidden West bundle if you can get one (see below)

Are any PS5 bundles shipping with firmware 4.50 or lower?​

In the PS3/PS4 era, we would look for specific bundles that were known to run a specific firmware. There haven’t been that many bundles for the PS5: The Ratchet and Clank bundle was one of the exceptions, and if you can get your hands on a (sealed) one it is pretty much guaranteed to ship with a low firmware. We haven’t been able to find it on the usual marketplaces though, and the few claiming they have a “bundle” are actually just selling a recent PS5 with the game, which is not what we’re looking for. So we can’t easily recommend that as a feasible option.

Can anyone explain to me what was patched in later FW’s, and to why this exploit wouldn’t work?

The exploit was disclosed to Sony a while back so they could fix it, only then is it released for us.

So don't update as exploitable firmware is always likely to be at least a year old.

That's essentially the same way to dump ps4 content before dumpers. Still have to do so for dlc and themes afaik.
