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 full exploit chain. A hypervisor exploit was rumoured to be held in private that only works on <3.00 firmware, and recently Flatz confirmed he has developed his own 2.50 HV exploit (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.

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.

If you are on 1.XX-2.XX do not update at all, it may take years but HV exploit exists in private for this firmware range.
If you are on 3.XX-4.02: the advice is to update to 4.03, but don’t be tempted to update to 4.51 yet.

3: PS5 FPKGs won’t work as HEN and HV/kernel patches do not publicly exist for PS5 content yet.

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!

CFI-1215A with 825 GB
S01-G32801VNA10312399

Im not sure If Im reading this from year 2032 and day 8, Am I right??

lol, I think at somepoint they started randomising it a bit, but 1215A is known to be 5.50+

I would love to have a bigger sample of serials and other info to decent actual verifiable date coding.

NSTG is compiling that list but will they release it to the public? Doubtful.

Hello thanks for creating the exploit. I have a PS5 on version 4.50. In the last days i have been using the DNS server to block system updates and quickly open exploit page, but the DNS server stopped working recently, so i had to use the hidden PS5 browser.

I am trying to run the exploit via es7in1.site and ps5jb.pages.dev but when i click the button then i only get the message "no disk space warning" or the console panics. I even tried to fully reset the console, but the exploit does no longer work. I tried like 20 times, with same result. Always get the warning about disk space or console crashes. What more can i do then restarting to factory? The exploit was working fine yesterday....
Please help!

I get the output:

1. may look frozen
2. Triggering UAF
3. kernel read/write established
4. kqueue=0x ...
5. Debug setting enabled
6. Console panic/crash

The console crashes before i can see the screen to load kstuff

I’ve just tried this to remote play (https://gbatemp.net/download/psn-remote-play-4-03.38258/) but it asked me for the "link device" 8-digit number which I could not generate on the PS5 without being signed in, which requires the latest FW…

Am I missing something?

Try another host, such as Sleirs or Zecos.

Was your console previously activated?

Yes. The linkage actually still works between the PS5 and a Switchroot instance (Android, PSPlay app) which I linked 2y ago. But I didn’t find a way to link new devices due to the requirement of that 8-digit number…

Any trick to bypass the 8-digit linkage number requirement to Remote Play from new devices to a preactivated PS5?… I thought that tool was doing something like that…

@genf i will enquire

Thanks, it worked with that host. Strange that the results are so different. I have also added the leeful browser, which is much faster to open the exploit site. Thanks!

What are the chances things get far enough to allow playing pirated ps5 games? I was planning on selling mine but if that's a possibility in the future I may keep it.

Currently they crash, but it’s only a matter of time as stated above.

If you have 4.51 or below keep it.

Just checked and it's 8.0 so I'm doomed. I had auto updates on. I should just sell it, right?
