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!

On the bottom or rear of the console box there is a panel that’s cut out with the serial, part number and model information.

Not 100% sure of the legality, but if it contains no legit SDK material it should be ok.

it doesn't seem to, but it can be removed if you find out something I guess:

what if it's a higher firmware? will you be returning it? good thing it's not like the series x. you can't even go through initial setup without updating.

btw, I was only able to build that bd-jb disc with ubuntu 20.04. debian doesn't seem to have the headless versions of jdk, which is java btw, as it's required with the android sdk. I've used that before, to build sm64 for android phones.

It probably will have 3.21, assuming it hasn't been updated already. 218 = August 2021.

btw, that compile was more a curiosity than anything else. I didn't intend to build something for the ps5 scene, but I was curious if I could. I don't really know how it works, and I obviously can't test anything ps5 related, since I"m on 6.00.01 (the latest).

I would offer to test it for you, but my PS5 is staying in storage until something major for end-users like HEN is released.

I think I'm going to take the rest of the day off. I didn't go to sleep last night, and I'm exhausted. my right leg, near the knee, is burning, and I think it's from overdoing it. I need some sleep.

According to this it is jailbreakable.

PS5 FPKG downgrade memes:

 

[godreborn]

I think the ps5 scene is one where we finally need to get rid of some losers, who are only in it for efame, and I think you know whom I'm talking about. they're just going to make a lot more devs and good users quit to where there's virtually no one in the ps6 scene. is that really what people want??? that's what pissed me off about some pirates, perhaps a lot--they have no standards about where they get their content, just that they get it. that's very disturbing imho.

^This... I purchased my Disc PS5, last September at my local best buy, via camping overnight, until 8:00 AM with over 100 other people. Still in box, never opened.

I got my Xbox series x a month later, it's my daily driver until something official is released for the PS5.

There's so much more that needs to be done in order for people with low firmware to install PS5 pkg files. Apps have to be created, methods needs to be documented.

Do's and don'ts will need to be posted, so mistakes won't likely to happen.

I'll be damned if I'm going to run a risk of bricking my PS5.
