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!

[shano]

It seems like the 3.xx - 4.xx UAF IPv6 kernel exploit seems to also work on 5.xx

So 5.00 will get the same exploits soon like what 3.00-4.51 has?

 

[qamartheone]

So 5.00 will get the same exploits soon like what 3.00-4.51 has?

hmm..from the looks of it seems so,lets just wait till then,fingers crossed.

 

[Stoned]

 

[solitaire4eva]

And running on 4.03!

 

[qamartheone]

i have already mentioned many times,i say it again,sooner or later there will be a way of playing ps5 backups on exploited 4.xx consoles bypassing the need of HV.

 

[roice2000]

I can mention Something unpredictable too.

The Switch Pro / Switch 2 will Be Hacked sooner or Later. And Back ups will Be Played in that console.
Mark my words

lol i am being specific to the fw version mate, there's a huge belief that only 2.50 will support ps5 backups because it has hv exploit,but i have been saying from start that independent of hv exploit there will be another alternative methods of playing ps5 backups even on 4.xx consoles,next time kindly read thoroughly the context of statement rather than blindly typing something

 

[FR0ZN]

So 5.00 will get the same exploits soon like what 3.00-4.51 has?

It is getting tested, the devs however said it was definitely patched on 5.02 - so there MIGHT be chance for 5.00 (and maybe 5.01).
If you are on 5.00 stay there no matter what.

 

[KiiWii]

I’m intrigued why no purely native ps5 game has been shown working as a backup with LM’s method yet.

Demos require no licence so makes sense they work with this method though they said Matrix required a crack because of DRM.

GTA3 is a ps4 game upgraded to ps5, so I wouldn’t personally count it as native exactly… maybe that’s just me..

Astros Playroom is native but free too, however that’s not shown, and we know it crashed months ago using linhijacker.

Perhaps it’s a limitation that needs to be passed?

It’s not using FPKG method, as confirmed by ModdedWarfare and it uses files from the system as mentioned by @EchoStretch

Great progress nonetheless

maybe because of this change there will be a new official FW? ..I hope Sony releases 8.88 because those numbers are lucky for a lot of people and looks good

What FW is installed on Disc Edition God of War Ragnaröck Bundle?

I think 5.50

Sounds like more of an issue to the casual audience who want to share ps4/ps5 pics or video clips seemlessly. And there's always a ton of those on Twitter/X.

I want to ask, is this webkit 100% reliable? if not, what happens if it fails? on PS4 there was something like initialization or something like this...
i found this info on BD-J:
"100% reliable versus WebKit exploits"

---------

If you’re trying PS4 games on PS5 and have sound issues please contribute to this wiki:

https://www.psdevwiki.com/ps5/List_of_PS4_Games_With_Sound_Issues

Is problem only with versions 4.XX or also with other FW?
It would be good to try disc on 4.XX or higher FW.. My friend has a disc version of the game (PS4) from this page (I don't know if he have same cusa), so I can try asking him to lend me the disc and I'll try it on PS5 with FW6 and with latest FW.

PS: some sounds problems are not described.

 

[KiiWii]

@Adam512 4.03/4.50/4.51

No entrypoint is 100% reliable, but stability is better on BDJB for sure.

 

[KiiWii]

According to sources the PS5 OFW 5.10 is vulnerable to webkit exploit.
