PS5 Hack Status:

FW Ranges:
2.XX = HEN+Kstuff+HV = PS4/5 backups, possible keys exploit (WebKit: 2.50 best / 2.7X max)
3.XX = HEN+Kstuff+HV+Linux = PS4/5 backups, possible keys exploit (WK/BDJB/LUA: 3.20 best / 3.21 max)
4.XX = HEN+Kstuff+HV+Linux = PS4/5 backups (WK/Y2JB/BDJB/LUA: 4.50 best / 4.51 max)
5.XX = HEN+Kstuff+HV+Linux = PS4/5 backups (WK/Y2JB/BDJB/LUA: 5.50 best + max)
6.XX = HEN+Kstuff = PS4/5 backups, HV+Linux for 6.02 max (Y2JB/BDJB/LUA: 6.50 best + max)
7.XX = HEN+Kstuff = PS4/5 backups, no HV (Y2JB/BDJB/LUA: 7.61 best + max)
8.XX-10.01 = HEN+ Kstuff = PS4/5 backups, no HV (Y2JB/LUA)
10.20-12.00 = KEX + Kstuff = PS4/5 backups, no HV (LUA)
12.02-12.70 = KEX (P2JB/SWRR)
13.XX = No KEX/HEN/Kstuff/HV (LUA)

NOTE: Recommended firmware is subjective. Staying low is always suggested first & foremost. It is not recommended to update too many major versions (e.g., 4.xx to 5.xx or 7.xx to 8.xx) because you should remain low unless all you want is backups.

DO NOT UPDATE OVER 12.00!! P2JB can take over 3 hrs to trigger an exploit.

Hypervisor (HV):
Highest known HV exploit: 6.02
Highest theoretical HV exploit: 7.XX
Highest implemented HV exploit: 1.00-4.51 (Cragson PS5Hen) / 3.00-6.02 (TheFlow)

Mast1C0re: 1.00-7.61 (PS2 backups)
LuaC0re: 10.20-12.02 (Star Wars RR: + Poopsploit up to 12.00)

NOTE: A userland entry exploit (UL) chained to kernel exploit (KEX) is required at a bare minimum to exploit your console.

NOTE 2: Since 12.60/13.00 Sony has removed the YouTube and Netflix apps and has added 30 day expirations to downloaded software used for LuaC0re/Mast1C0re/RenPy etc.

Digital consoles will now need a new webkit userland to hack their consoles as of 19/04/2026)

Spoiler: System Update Information

To determine your OFW version:
Go to settings > system > console information.

Version string info:
Year.Half (1st/2nd half of the year)-Major Version No.Minor Version No.Extended info-Further Info.Retail/Debug

21.02-04.03.00.00-00.00.00.0.1

It is recommended to keep your console as low as possible to have access to better jailbreak stability and features. Stay as low as possible within the "Golden" firmware brackets that apply to your current firmware.

Current Examples:
2.00 could be updated to 2.50 maximum to retain Webkit/BD-JB/LUA HV + KEX + HEN.
4.00 could be updated to 4.51 maximum for WebKit/BD-JB/LUA + KEX + HEN + potential HV exploits.
5.00 could be updated to 5.50 maximum for WebKit/BD-JB/LUA + KEX + HEN.
6.XX-7.XX could be updated to 7.61 maximum for HEN using only BD-JB or LUA.
Digital/Pro users on 6.XX-LATEST cannot use BDJB or LUA without an activated console. Wekbit does not go beyond 5.50 for now.
Digital/Pro users or Disc console users on 8.XX-LATEST should consider waiting or selling/swapping consoles to get a lower firmware.
(No jailbreak is ever guaranteed. No developer is obliged to release anything publicly)

WARNING:
Only update OFW manually via USB by getting the firmware file from HERE and installing from <USB>:/PS5/UPDATE/PS5UPDATE.PUP

   (A compatible PS4 game is required to launch the exploit on PS5. See below)
   
   Your PS5 console must be activated to use save copying for PS4 games.
   
   
   1. Insert your game disc and, as soon as possible, make a save file within it.
   2. Copy the save files to USB, go to [SETTINGS] > [STORAGE] > [CONSOLE STORAGE] > [SAVE DATA] > [PS4 GAMES] > select the game save and copy to a USB drive.
   3. On PC, using a Google Drive account, make a new folder with the GAME ID of your game, and upload the savedata & savedata.bin files to that folder.
   4. Share the folder, set it to editor mode, share with anyone, and click "copy the link".
   5. Join the HTOS Discord group: HERE type "/decrypt", select "FALSE" for including SCE_SYS, paste or type in the Google Drive link, and press enter. The bot should begin mounting your save. (If it doesn't, paste in the link again.)
   6. Click "ENCRYPTED" to remove the Sony PFS layer. Download the generated files and extract the folder to your desktop (you should have 4 files in there and be named dec_savedata_CUSA[GAME ID]).
   7. Using REMOTE LUA LOADER, open the savedata folder, copy the 20 files within into your encrypted save folder on your desktop.
   8. Upload the encrypted save folder (now with 24 files in) to your Google Drive. It should be named "dec_savedata_CUSA[GAME ID]" where GAME ID is your games 5 digit number, and set it to editor mode, share with anyone, and then click "copy the link".
   9. Go back to the HTOS discord server, and type "/encrypt", hit "FALSE" for uploading individually, and "FALSE" to include SCE_SYS. Finally, hit shared_gd_link and paste in your link to the original save (4 files) folder. (If it doesn't, paste in the link again.)
   10. When this is done, paste the link to the decrypted save (24 files) folder, and the bot will encrypt the files.
   11. Resign the files by typing "/resign" followed by your account name on the console, or PSN ID associated with that account if using the latest OFW.
   12. Download the resigned files, extract the files to your USB drive and overwrite them into the savedata folder on your USB or external drive.
   13. Copy the saves back to your console [SETTINGS] > [SAVE DATA AND GAME/APP SETTINGS] > [SAVE DATA PS4] > [COPY OR DELETE FROM USB] > [COPY TO CONSOLE STORAGE] > select your game save folder from the USB drive and copy/overwrite old save data.
   14. Load LUA game again, and you should see the LUA LOADER screen.
   15. You can use "SEND_LUA.PY" to send the UMTX files to the loader.
   (NOTE: Some games require manual loading of save game)
   
   On firmware up to 7.61, you can now load UMTX/2 followed by etaHEN by sending the files to your console IP on PORT 9026.
   On firmware 8.00-LATEST, you can connect with the REMOTE LUA LOADER APP to send debug notifications or FTP on port 1337.

   This method modifies the BD-J stack to allows BDJB to be re-enabled on your higher firmware console up to 12.40.
   
   This requires your console to be hacked via another method first to gain access to alter the files.
   (For example 12.00 needs SWRR disc to hack it first)

Additional Information:

PS4 GAME INFORMATION:
OFW 1.xx cannot run PS4 games.
OFW 2.xx runs PS4 games up to 8.03
OFW 3.xx runs PS4 games up to 8.52
OFW 4.xx runs PS4 games up to 9.04
OFW 5.xx runs PS4 games up to 9.60
OFW 6.xx runs PS4 games up to 10.50
OFW 7.xx runs PS4 games up to 11.00
OFW 8.xx/9.xx runs PS4 games up to 11.50
OFW 10.xx runs PS4 games up to 12.00
OFW 11.xx runs PS4 games up to 12.50
OFW 12.xx runs PS4 games up to 13.00

(Note: PS4 backported FPKGs also work perfectly on an exploited PS5 with Kstuff)

You can install free/demo PKGS (legit pkgs) via the debug pkg installer, provided you have all the files/json/licences required.
(Astro’s Playroom has no licences and can be installed and played from official pkgs and updated inline with your firmware)

Warnings:

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 for hacks on that firmware.

3: PS5 FPKGs do not work. A hack for the A53 processor does not publicly exist to enable installing PS5 content as FPKG/PKG.

4: Installing legit game PKGs you do not own will never work, even if spoofed.

5: If you get stuck in a boot loop at the PS logo, the SNVS is corrupted (if the hash check fails on boot, this causes a “soft brick”). It’s not “bricked”. Simply reinstall your current firmware RECOVERY PUP in safe mode from USB: PS5 > UPDATE > PS5UPDATE.PUP.

Is there a link to the youtube app for my firmware 2.00???

The version of the YT app that introduced the bug requires 4.03 or higher.

EDIT: Astro's Playroom seems to also be unique where it tries to download updates independently of whatever auto update settings are set to in the console settings. You have to keep the console offline or it will keep trying to install the update. Seems like Minecraft might be the same. I'm not sure you would want to let the Minecraft one finish because it would be trying to install an official update on a fake package which I don't think works. Not totally sure about that one.

I have all auto downloads turned off yet the system somehow ignores it and will start downloading game updates. I have this same behavior on the PS4 and I don't understand why.

So far, this jb malarky has cost me a few pence......

1, Blu Ray writer circa £95
2. Blu Ray Discs circa £10
3. A lua game which i'll probably never use if the Y2JB exploit works....

How many others are in the same boat?

Do not cry around here and start using your equipment and earn some money by burning and selling some Blurays called "PS4 BD-JB Lapse V1.2 AiO MODDED WARFARE" for 10 Bucks each. This way you will get some money back and also prevent your boat from sinking because of too many people on it. Win win

Thought i'd play around with using the Apollo save tool to upload a modified lua save game to my PS5 pro just to get an idea of how to use the tool... When i tried to copy the modified lua save to my PS5's hdd the file could not be copied as it said it was created by another user (or something like that). I thought that was odd coz both my PS5 Pro and my PS4 have the same user id (same email address and same PSN id). So, i checked the save game files in Apollo for both the original save file and the save file reassigned on my PS4 and lo and behold i'm seeing two different hex id's. The only thing i can think of that's different is that my PS5 is PSN Premium id and my PS4 is not?

So i started to think, could i just change the PS id on my PS4 to match those of my PS5 via the kar0218 host then recreate the modified save on my PS4 and see if i can then upload it to my PS5?

Thoughts?

Thoughts?

Don’t change the user ID. It could mess up your saves. It’s better to create a new user on your PS4 with the same ID as on your PS5, then use Apollo Save Tool to generate saves for it.

Regarding Gezine, I wonder what kind of monetary value you could put on their "LUA" exploit? Devs usually get between $10,000 -60,000 for reporting exploits to Sony. Guessing Sony are now ignoring him because of the impact of LUA?

 

[Adam512]

yes dont be stupid

 

[solitaire4eva]

hello guys, quick question if anyone knows.I managed to launch the LUA game exploit on my PS5. Is there a way to launch it without the need of the usb drive? From the internal storage?

Post automatically merged: Oct 7, 2025

Also, when I go to the Debug Settings and select Game (or any other option for that matter) I get an error message ''Something went wrong.'' with CE-100154-1 on the top right corner. When I select OK to dismiss the message, I'm into the Game category.

yes dont be stupid

May just submit it to Sony for a payday first. He ain't obligated to release it to community. We could see it maybe mid or end of next year.

or never, most people think it's just basic HTML without any exploits... not even a credible video nothing. I'm just saying most people aren't naive

Maybe it's a fake but I think an exploit with jpeg exist. It was an idea that had already surfaced, and even recently zeco had posted a video of an exploit with jpg that had been sent to him.

But we don't if is fake or not.

Regarding Gezine, I wonder what kind of monetary value you could put on their "LUA" exploit? Devs usually get between $10,000 -60,000 for reporting exploits to Sony. Guessing Sony are now ignoring him because of the impact of LUA?

It seems to be the usual suspects who get the bounties. Do we even know how old Gezine is? If it’s some 8 yr old kid coding away then is he obliged to even get paid?

as I posted here before, according to hackerone playstation program, it's out of scope.

by being out of scope I understand there's no bounty, nothing, nada. but it doesn't mean they won't fix it if possible.

Judging by Zecos reaction to it today, i think it’s fake bullshit.

So the y2jb method has gained write privileges, could be a new alternative for the digital systems on firmwares that don't have a digital entry point yet. Don't see it being a game changer for the kernel end though. If only I didn't have a mono tone teacher like Ben Stein when i was learning html coding 22 years ago, maybe i wouldn't have been bored out of learning more... not too late yet I guess. Forgot most of the html stuff, geocities didn't help by automating the practice.

I have all auto downloads turned off yet the system somehow ignores it and will start downloading game updates. I have this same behavior on the PS4 and I don't understand why.

Are you blocking sony's servers via your router? This works for me, my PS4 pops up saying it can't download updates for 'XYZ' game each time I log in.

Im agree, but I think Zeco is one of those people who shouldn't be believed, let's not forget that he sold us many dreams over the years and we got nothing, so.

Well, as long as there's no POC, we can't confirm anything yet, so for now, we'll just say it's "fake."

Good news... sorry not Y2K (remember that marlarky ), got my Lua save all working now... I created a new PS4 id and assigned my retail PS5 id to it using karo host.... Was then able to copy the reassigned encrypted lua save back to my PS5... yipee

We dont talk about geocity cause it shows your age. It's like bringing up angel fire and myspace lol.

I'm thinking a few more days before y2jb is complete. Fingers crossed! The other guy, I believe he can do it to!
