Latest OFW: 7.20 (19/04/23)
Highest PS5 OFW hackable: 4.51 (highest for Znulls new method)
Highest for Mast1c0re native code exec: 6.00 (unreleased)
Highest for Mast1c0re PS2 classics: 6.50 (relies on offsets)

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 exploit chain, so there is no chance of HEN, and therefore no PS4/PS5 backup loading yet.

(Note: a hypervisor exploit is rumoured to be held in private that works on <2.50 firmware).

• 4.51 OFW for BD-JB entry point.
• 3.00/3.20/3.21/4.02/4.03/4.50/4.51 OFW for webkit entry point
• No firmware requirement for Mast1c0re PS2 classics entry point

NOTE: NEVER TURN ON IDU MODE

NOTE 2: Always stay on the lowest FW possible, if you are on 3.00-4.03 etc, don’t be tempted to update to 4.51 yet, stay as low as possible for now.

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”).

DONT WORRY it’s not “bricked”, just reinstall your current firmwares RECOVERY PUP in safe mode!

There are several leaked PS5 SDKs from the CDPR breach.
But leaked SDKs never helped with hacking a console - at least to my knowledge.
If that would be the case, the manufacturers would secure those a lot more.

They can provide knowledge into how the system works which helps with getting into it but yeah, it usually won't help directly.

That’s from Znull.

The exact method is unclear but it will enable native PS5 homebrew afaik. No piracy.
