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!

What does TeRex777's "magic USB v2" do exactly? Runs legit installed games without the disk inserted?

 

[Jehutiy]

Sorry if this has been asked before. Does anyone's DLC PKG installs work? Base games + Updates seem to work fine but none of any of the DLC PKG installs seems to work. I tried this with 2 games, most recent being Ghostrunner and the DLC stuff just doesn't show up.

I am on FW 4.50.

 

[rantex92]

Maybe you did it on a ps3? Maybe you had like cfw 4.8 for example and rolled back to ofw 3.55. Some years ago I had trouble with a ps3 and did that in order to discard the fw as the culprit (in the end it was freezing because of bad cooling, never fixed it)

i appreciate what youre tryin but thats imossible ive bought my first ps3 around 2021
this can only be clarifiet with some kind of proof from my side

you see what happens NONAME forum users like adam will get too excited thinking every other user is a scripkiddy

and btw where´s godreborn?

DLCs are known to not work currently.
There are some repacks available where the DLC is merged into a remastered package, but this more of a workaround than a fix.
I'm sure a proper implementation will show up soon enough.

[mafalde]

Guys, I think this might be new info.

I have 1116A with fw 3.00, not 3.20 as per the current guide from @KiiWii (can't link, I'm new to the forum).

I don't think this is breaking news, but I thought it was worth mentioning.

I got it recently, found it on a local marketplace site in Poland. Console was new, sealed.

 

[KiiWii]

@mafalde thank you for the info. I’ll update the guide.

F216 = June 2021 so that aligns with the date examples for a definite hackable.

thats sad i would have liked to ask him how is life he was a good one

Thanks for the info. Didn't realize that. With how fast everything seems to be moving, I am sure this will get implemented soon.

That's some complicated stuff there.
Opened my old ps5 yesterday, and found out it's on 2.50 so after being recommended to wait
for a full jailbreak, that include ps5 games, i guess i will do that.
Even though my fingers scratch, for trying to get on jailbreaking

Hold tight. 2.xx could be the best.

Updates from Zeco:

latest host should now have first and third spoof, following the indications of @MODDED_WARFARE 's video. it should also have etaHEN, mirroring ps5jb's behaviour

As I mentioned before the PS5 spoof is making payloads lose their ability to identify firmware.

 

[NyaakoXD]

The wait hurtssssssssss.

 

[KiiWii]

The wait hurtssssssssss.

It always does.

Focus on something else.

It’s like waiting for a bus, or watching water boil.

Quicker if you aren’t waiting for it specifically
