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!

this is an install script to setup a dns server(blocker), web server and a exploit host on a raspberry pi.

it is using PS5-Exploit-Host by idlesauce.

[FR0ZN]

The 2.xx dream proceeds to fade away even further.

It is yet to be seen what versions are affected by this new kernel exploit.
Maybe 1.00 - xx.xx are vulnerable, who knows?

 

[linuxares]

2.xx still have the golden HV exploit.

 

[NyaakoXD]

HV is 2.xx not just kernel

I know, but when things are working even without HV exploit, it's slowly feeling like it won't matter. Unless, remind me, what are the potential advantages of having a fully exploited HV.

 

[KiiWii]

I know, but when things are working even without HV exploit, it's slowly feeling like it won't matter. Unless, remind me, what are the potential advantages of having a fully exploited HV.

Full exploit chain means more control, maybe Libhijacker is severely limited but we don’t know it yet.

Hopefully 2.xx fully pwned will identify ways to get the same stuff on higher firms, but honestly who knows… FlatZ.. only..

The fact HV was external to kernel up to 2.xx and it isn’t after that seems like a huge barrier to entry for full hacks on later firms… not just piracy.

"only thing left to check is if it's patched on 11.02/8.40 or 11.50/9.00".... I don't understand why he writes about "11.02/8.40 or 11.50/9.00".. I think it could be anything else, for example 11.11 or 12.00 or 8.88

//////////////////////

Jailbreak worked once than ps5 crashed after starting internet browser package. After System Storage repair my ps5 stuck at getting ready. Any ideas how to fix this?

one of the many reasons bd-jb is better...

Regarding bdjb, I wanted to ask, do you know if it would be possible to create bd disc so that in the future I don't have to burn the disc again and load new files from a USB drive? I'm thinking of borrowing a bd burner and so that I don't have to burn the files again, so it would be good if it also checked, for example, the usb disk.

I been using the newest esp8266 released and it hasn't frozen up once. Twice it looked like it wasn't going anywhere from loading page, so I just closed the browser, went back to the dashboard and then went back and opened it up again and no problem at all.

I don't like burning the blu ray disc every change like you....

Follow this guide and swap the exploit with idlesauces current exploit(https://github.com/idlesauce/PS5-Exploit-Host) as needed. With this method a burner isn't required if you have a bluray movie(though it's a lot faster burning the fake img to trigger the exploit)

p.s. I haven't tried this personally though I'm sure someone like KiiWii can guide you to the correct method.

Anyone also noticed, that the idlesauce jailbreak currently crashes every third time and send the ps5 to storage repair?

I have compiled the sketch myself for esp32. Most of the times it Stuck for me on „getting ready“ during idlesauce. I have completely disabled the internet on the Config Page.

Connect with PC to the PS5 AP and enter http://10.1.1.1/admin.html in the search bar. How often your PS5 crash during UAF? I am also on 4.03.

thanks! Hey when you say crash do you mean the entire system just crash/frozen?
I don't get it like that. I did however before using the updated one that was released 2 days ago. It used to literally crash the entire system.

Now on this one it may say stuck like 1 out of 10 times, but when it does I still have the ability to go to the dashboard and enter it once again. No full crashing though.
