PS5 Exploit Guide

PS5 Hack Status:


FW Ranges:
2.XX = PS4/5 backups (KEX+HV+Linux) + keys exploit (WK: 2.50 best / 2.7X max)
3.XX = PS4/5 backups (KEX+HV+Linux) + keys exploit (WK/BD/LUA: 3.20 best / 3.21 max)
4.XX = PS4/5 backups (KEX+HV+Linux) + keys exploit (WK/BD/LUA (Y2/NF/YARPE 4.03+): 4.50 best / 4.51 max)
5.XX = PS4/5 backups (KEX+HV+Linux) + keys exploit (
WK/BD/Y2/NF/LUA/YARPE: 5.50 best + max)

6.XX = PS4/5 backups (KEX+HV+Linux) (BD/Y2/NF/LUA/YARPE: 6.50 max)
7.XX = PS4/5 backups (KEX+HV+Linux) (
WK/BD/Y2/NF/LUA/YARPE: 7.61 best + max)
8.XX-10.00 = PS4/5 backups (KEX+HV+Linux) (WK/BD/Y2/NF/LUA/YARPE)
10.01-12.70 = PS4/5 backups (KEX+HV+Linux) (
WK/BD/Y2/NF/LUA/YARPE)
13.XX-13.60 = PS4/5 backups (KEX+HV+Linux) (
WK/BD(13.42)/Y2/LUA/YARPE)
14.XX = No public KEX, HV/A53 patched in 14.20, UL ONLY (LUA/YARPE)

NOTE 1: Recommended firmware is subjective. Staying low is always recommended.
NOTE 2: Do not update too many major versions (e.g., 4.xx to 5.xx or 7.xx to 8.xx). Remain low unless all you want is backups.
NOTE 3: P2JB can take over an hour to exploit on FW up to 12.70.

Preparing Your Console:


It is recommended to either self-host offline or block these addresses in your router to avoid accidental updates or getting an update nag. Using the DNS method is no longer failsafe, as these are not guaranteed to be running 24/7.

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, see the top of this page.

(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
(Updating with RECOVERY PUP will perform a factory format and will wipe your internal HDD)

PS5 factory mode PUP installation path:
/usb/PROSPERO/UPDATE/PROSPEROUPDATE.PUP

NOTE: Make a system back up before attempting any modifications.
On console: go to [Settings] > [System] > [System Software] > [Back Up and Restore] > [Back Up Your PS5]

Select Your Jailbreak:


WEBKIT:BD-JB:LUA:Y2JB:NFNH:YARPE:LuaC0re:BD-UN-JB:

    Debug settings will be loaded, and the package installer can be found under [SETTINGS] > [DEBUG SETTINGS].

  2. Important:
    You will need a BD dive paired to your Slim/Pro console or an OG Phat model . Consoles must be on 1.00-13.42 to run this exploit.


    Recommended ISO: Viktorious AIO Auto BD-JB ISO for 4.XX-7.61

    Exploiting: 1, Burn ISO to a blank BD-R or BD-RE > Insert into console > click on the [DISC PLAYER] icon.

    2, Highlight [PIPELINE RUNNER] > click option 2 [Normaljailbreak-etaHEN-UMTX1.pipe] to auto load etaHEN ready for ItemzFlow.

    ELF Loader uses PS5 IP: port 9021 / BIN loader uses 9020 / Jar loader uses port 9025

    Debug settings will be loaded, and the package installer can be found under [SETTINGS] > [DEBUG SETTINGS].

  3. Important:
    LUA entry point works from 2.00 to the latest OFW, but there is no KEX above 12.70 yet.
    (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.

  8. [UPDATED]
    No longer needed if using latest WebKit (to 13.60) or BD-JB (to 13.42)!


    Important:

    This method modifies the BD-J stack to allows BD-JB entry point to be re-enabled on consoles up to 13.60, for convenience only.

    Very Important:
    This method requires your console to be jailbroken by another method first to gain access to alter the files.

    https://github.com/Gezine/BD-UN-JB

    Preparation:
    Burn the ISO to a blank Blu Ray, insert it into the jailbroken console. Send the bdj_unpatch.elf to elfldr using netcat GUI to PS5's IP Address & port 9021 to unpatch BD-J.

    (NOTE: DO NOT REINSTALL/UPDATE FW, IT WILL WIPE THE PATCH AND LOSE BD-JB)


Once jailbroken it is recommended to run KSTUFF LITE and SHADOWMOUNTPLUS at minimum to get you up and running.
(ShadowMountPlus: is an automated background auto-mounter payload for jailbroken PS5 consoles. Detects, mounts, and installs game dumps from internal or external storage, with support for UFS, exFAT, PFS, and nested compressed PFS containers)

Additional Information:


Blocking Updated with nanoDNS:
Set primary DNS manually to 127.0.0.1. Send latest elf to BIN LOADER using netcat GUI to PS5's IP Address & port 9021.

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
OFW 13.xx runs PS4 games up to 13.42
OFW 14.xx runs PS4 games up to 14.00


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

4: 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.

with wolverine there was nothing until days after 13.60, if that guy doesnt have a exploitable version i don think he can get anything
 
I am not thinking anything. DRM is not synonymous and exclusive to online only. As i said, the disc does have a license too. The reason you can play just fine after installing a .pkg from prospero patches is because the license is ALREADY on the console from a previous purchase or disc validation.
One again, you are too focused on implementation details (spiced with claude-style jargon to sound more technical) and mises the high-level picture. You can call it "license", "key", "magic cookie", "box serial number" or whatever. The important fact is: all required info to decrypt and play base game and updates is already available offline on ps5 and disk. While both of your posts imply that said "license" should be provisioned from side channel thus it is a genuine obstacle to have dumped games updatable.

There is no more "hack property", this is it! This is as best as you can get it.
This is absurd statement. Given simple fact: I have legit disk and can update it on jailbroken ps5 with PSN patches no problems. But this disk dumped with available tools can't be updated anymore. This is by definition "not hacked properly", meaning dump is actually not 1:1 copy and/or some routines are not modified/bypassed to accept it as a legit disk.

GTA VI can be released much sooner but Its a double edged sword as no one can claim the rep publicly. Hopefully there's someone about who doesn't give a damn about EGO.
I doubt that anyone like that can be found these days... it'll be bullshit again about how amazing they are, how they have it in private but they won't release anything because they don't want problems or that they have to wait for approval or just some other excuse..
 
You are thinking in Steam paradigm, aka always online DRM. On ps5 everything is playable offline. You can insert disk and play it without ever connecting ps5 to internet. Moreover you can download patches from PSN on your PC and PS5 will decrypt them no problems. So all required keys are already there.

Nobody was able to hack it properly, that's all. No wonder, it is very secure multi-layered system. So we are stuck with workarounds and half-measures.
Hi, I have an older version of Until Dawn. I'd like to download the update to unlock 60fps. They've introduced a Performance mode.

Would that work with your solution?

I think it wouldn't hurt to do a little digging on your own so you don't have to ask so many questions in such a short time 😅. In this case, if you have the retail version of Until Dawn, whether on disc or as a PSN download, you can use Patch-DL and/or ProperoPatches to download its official update, making sure it supports your firmware version. If it’s a dump you found online, your only option is that it was dumped along with the update itself.

Specifically, in the case of Until Dawn, aside from a few changes in lighting and other details regarding the endings, the PS5 version doesn't differ much from the PS4 version so I'd recommend going with that version if you're looking for better performance. The PS4 version, when played via backward compatibility, runs at a steady 60 FPS.

I don't think you really understood what I whote before and are rambling unrelated nonsense. There is no claude-jargon, it is how it needs to be explained. Reading comprehension issues, maybe? you can always ask.

I will make it simpler.

* You download game from PSN or have a disc = you get a license that is used to decrypt the binaries in the .pkg = you can run the game.

* You download and install a .pkg from propero patches for a game you've never purchased or have the disc = you don't have the license to decrypt the game = the game will not run (even on a jailbroken console)

There is nothing about it being online only (in execption of being connected to PSN at the time of purchase/download) or Steam like-DRM, is a DRM system anyway regardless if is used online or offline.

This is absurd statement. Given simple fact: I have legit disk and can update it on jailbroken ps5 with PSN patches no problems. But this disk dumped with available tools can't be updated anymore. This is by definition "not hacked properly", meaning dump is actually not 1:1 copy and/or some routines are not modified/bypassed to accept it as a legit disk.
This precisely has been addressed in my previous statements, it is not lack of "proper hack". You CAN'T update a dumped game with a prospeno patches because the binaries in it are encrypted by Sony and need a Sony provided license, you need that game decryption key (obtained from a license) to see what is inside and extract it then update your dumped game. If someone extracts the console secrets used to unwrap this Sony provided license, which is hard or likely impossible, then you likely will be able to use a PC downloaded .pkg. For more reasons than stated, I would argue this path would be more cumbersome and hence no tangible difference.

If you need to update your disc game, you have to update with a .pkg, dump it again and then packaged into a .fpkg. There is no more convenience than it.

Also, I am being pedantic here but the game is as close as possible to a 1:1 copy of your disc/digital game when you dump it, the eboot.bin / libraries may not be it because they go from decrypted in memory > elf > encrypted again with a fake key so those don't get a 1:1 copy, everything else is a copy.

PS5_Lichii v1.00.00 (pre-release)

The first pre-release of PS5_Lichii: Switch 2 games on the PS5 Pro, on Fritchii v5.3. It is built from the code and settings of the measured run 50: Ocarina of Time in Hyrule Field, moving, frame generation off

source: https://github.com/mihawk-99/PS5_Lichii/releases/tag/v1.00.00
Will test it. Developments go fast: https://github.com/mihawk-99/PS5_Lichii/releases#release-v1.10.00
Hope to see this development curve so that a all-round 60fps on the PRO is possible.

EDIT: Fps is around 18~23. So the best build yet.
Post automatically merged:

PS5 Suite v8.1.1​

New — Android Remote Play over the internet​

  • Video + audio on the phone — hardware-decoded H.264 video and Opus audio playback (AudioTrack) inside the controller view, immersive landscape fullscreen.
  • Suite Link remote connectivity — connect from mobile data or any network using an 8-character per-console code: direct IPv6 → NAT punch → MQTT relay fallback.
  • No re-pairing needed remotely — the app clones the credentials already registered on the console (regist key + AES + MAC exposed by the payload status) instead of re-running the Sony pairing handshake, which only accepts true remote peers.

Changed — stream quality​

  • Adaptive quality profile — direct connections (LAN/Wi-Fi/IPv6) now negotiate up to 720p60 / 6 Mbps; relay/tunnel paths keep a compact 540p profile for stability. Previously Android was hardcoded to 960×540@30/1.5 Mbps everywhere.
  • Full frame visible — video switched to Uniform so the entire 16:9 frame is shown on tall phone screens (no more cropped top/bottom; thin side bars only).
  • Layout fixes: separated control zones and analog sticks; Cross button uses an X glyph that every font renders.

Security​

  • Removed a hardcoded per-console Suite Link code from UI placeholders and test defaults. Codes live only in the payload (/data/suite_link_code.txt) and per-device saved settings — they are no longer baked into distributed binaries.

Fixed​

  • Trophy Lock removed — the re-lock feature has been disabled; unlock-only from this version forward.
  • Reentry guard on remote connect — repeated taps no longer cancel the in-flight pairing PIN (was causing 403 invalid or expired over slow relay paths).
  • Payload status JSON now reports console MAC for remote session setup.
  • Zero warnings / zero errors across managed and payload builds.

Payload refresh 3 (post-release) — trophy unlock correctness fix​

  • ps5_suite_server.elf replaced again: fixes UDS event property values >INT_MAX being truncated (e.g. Ratchet TrophyCodeNameHash selectors like 3893523250 were parsed with atoi into a signed int, went negative, and posted 0 — the extraction rule never matched). evval/evcval are now long and parsing uses strtoll.
  • Verified end-to-end on Ratchet & Clank: Rift Apart (NPWR20842_00): full set reset -> clean 0/47 rebuild -> 46 consecutive single-trophy unlocks (unlock:<id>), all awarded, Platinum cascaded -> daemon-authoritative 47/47. Same code path also reached 47/47 via unlock:all.
  • Client artifacts rebuilt from the same tree so every target (Windows x64/x86/ARM64, Linux x64/ARM64/ARM32, macOS x64/ARM64, Android) carries the Move/Copy folder picker and all current UI/protocol changes. SHA-256 in checksums.txt regenerated.

Full rebuild (post-release) — SDK v0.45, zero warnings​

  • ps5_suite_server.elf rebuilt against ps5-payload-sdk v0.45 (adds kernel offsets for fw 14.00/14.10). The last remaining build warning (unused pread result variable in the EKC probe path) was fixed — payload now compiles with 0 warnings / 0 errors.
  • All client artifacts rebuilt from the same source tree with 0 warnings / 0 errors: PS5Suite.exe (win-x64), PS5Suite.apk (Android), and all platform zips (Windows x86/ARM64, Linux x64/ARM64/ARM32, macOS x64/ARM64).
  • SHA-256 in checksums.txt regenerated for every artifact.

The "license" is already on disk. If dump doesn't have it, then it is incomplete dump. If dump has it, but you can't make PS5 system accept dump as legit disk, then the system is not properly hacked.

It is not rocket science, man. In the age of endless smart sounding AI slop, we have to stick to the basics.
