First BD-J + Kernel access exploit provided by Sleirsgoevy (29/9/22)

Note: There are several USERLAND exploits, a couple of KERNEL exploits, and there is now a public HYPERVISOR exploits available for 1.xx-2.70 to complete the full exploit chain (23/10/24).

Recently Flatz confirmed he has developed his own HV exploit (1.xx-4.51 which is kept private) which was chained from a PS4 save game, and has successfully dumped PlayStation Secure Processor (27/07/23).

Spoiler: Hacking Timeline

As of August 4th 2022: We can now install PS4/PS5 PKG games and updates (and by extension FPKGs) however official PKGs cannot be run unless you legitimately owned them previously digitally and have a licence for them on your current console, or if you own the disc (for update pkgs).

As of October 6th PS4 FPKG can be played on 4.03 OFW thanks to Sliersgoevy FPKG enabler!

Payload: https://gbatemp.net/download/4-03-fpkg-enabler-hen.38248/

As of October 21st PS4 FPKG can be played on 4.50 thanks to cheburek3000 porting offsets.

Payload: https://gbatemp.net/download/4-50-fpkg-enabler-hen.38279/

As of October 25th theflow0 fixes BD-J path traversal and native code execution for 7.61
https://x.com/theflow0/status/1717088032031982066?s=46&t=PIYQV4jmWEyCbVfx3Nx26g

As of November 4th ktuff is fixed for 4.51:

Payload: https://gbatemp.net/download/fpkg-enabler-4-51-hen.38306/

Nov 7th PS5 backups loaded via Itemzflow by Lightningmodz and Echostretch. Fully decrypted dumps require system files bundled into them in order to run without crashing with Libhijacker (no hen required), details here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/ps5-exploit-guide.613891/page-109#post-10290677

As of November 30th ps5debug has been released by SiSTR0: https://github.com/GoldHEN/ps5debug
Mirror: https://gbatemp.net/download/ps5debug.38333/

Dec 1st: first PS5 trainer (Dark Souls) is completed ready for the imminent release of REAPER Multi Trainer II by CTN.

Dec 25th: PS5 back up loading via ITEMZFLOW now released: https://pkg-zone.com/details/ITEM00001

As of Jan 2nd 2024 Sleirsgoevy has ported K-Stuff offsets for 3.xx firmwares.

As of Jan 4th 2024 LM had added 3.XX Kstuff to Itemzflow meaning 3.XX-4.51 is now supported for PS4/PS5 backups and dumping.


Oct 8th 2024: BD-JB + Kernel works on 7.61 thanks to user Hammer.

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 it out for hacks on that firmware.

3: PS5 FPKGs cannot work as a hack for the a53 processor does not publicly exist to enable PS5 content as FPKG/PKG.

4: Installing legit game PKGs you do not own will not work, even if spoofed.

5: 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”).

It’s not “bricked”, just reinstall your current firmware RECOVERY PUP in safe mode!

I'm not sure I understand. What exactly can the testkit do that we cannot right now?

Testkit can run debug games, connect to neighbourhood, update and downgrade.

I thought it just meant the system he was testing on. I know about devkits but I was ignorant of a test kit, it makes sense though.

wait, it can't highjack my home security cams or watch me sleep. RIGHT!?

Anything digital can be hijacked by anything digital. S.M.A.R.T. devices are stupid convenient for scammers and all manner of malice. Take scamazon and the ilk, so easy for scammers and yet the ones allowing them think they can just deny accountability.

.....so you're saying that the "digital clock" that I bought from the dollar store, can be used to hijack
your computer?

Yeah, it could, ever heard of the term "freak box"? A paper clip hijacked the wii, those tiny compute chips like "raspberry pie" and arduino are still hijacking stuff. I remember when the Texas instrument calculators cold hijack the school network... ironic how the entire economy can be hijacked by a sun spot... solar flare knocks out electronics and all commerce stops...

I thought the paper clip hijacked the Switch, it hacked the Wii as well?

Well anyways, so how would I go about hacking your PC with my digital clock? Specifically.
.........for educational purposes.

Tweezers hacked the Wii

Testkit can....update and downgrade.

What a neat feature. Shame that option can't be ported to jailbroken ps5 consoles. Imagine that was an option with 4.xx...

It’s the same with my PS4 testkit, I’ve used 4.05-6.72 iirc, but the latest version is 12.00. It’s very neat, but not portable to retail because of keys.

In fact PS3 FW 3.55 could update and downgrade after QA flagging but this is because of HMAC keys used in the update process IIRC.

I believe that was because of the firmware signature keys acting like a master key. If we had Sony signature keys we could all make our own custom firmwares. They blacklisted those keys so they couldn't be refused for later firmwares. Whatever chip handles the firmware verification in theory could be modified to accept any signature keys.

I'm attempting to offline activate my account but when I try to run the homebrew loader I get the reference error can't find variable: router. I'm guessing it's an ip address issue with the loader but I can't figure out where to change it. Unless it's a required dns server.

4:32 The Offline Activator does not open properly and get an error that "server returned nothing (no headers, no data)" anyone getting this or know what to do?

Think i have the same problem. I am on 5.50... curious if you were able to solve it.
