PS5 Basic support added to LLVM/Clang toolchain and compiler

PlayStation scene developer bigboss (psxdev) points out that basic PS5 support has been added to the popular LLVM Toolchain . This could pave the way to an open source toolchain/SDK for the PS5 scene. What is LLVM LLVM is a set of compiler and toolchain technologies, which can be used to develop a front end for any programming language and a back end for any instruction set architecture. LLVM is designed around a language-independent intermediate representation (IR) that serves as a portable, high-level assembly language that can be optimized with a variety of transformations over multiple passes One of the most popular components of LLVM is probably clang, a C/C++ compiler. What’s going on with PS4/PS5 and LLVM? PlayStation have been using LLVM for the PS4 and the PS5, and have regularly brought back some of their console’s specific patches to the LLVM project. It’s likely this helps reduce maintenance load on their end (to avoid having to apply patches constantly on their own fork of...

PS5 File Dumping utility + other samples for BD-JB Released

Developer John Tornblom has been maintaining a small repository of utility code for the PS5 BD-JB exploits. He recently added a File Dumping utility, for those of you who have all the necessary tools (and an exploitable PS5) and want to try. This isn’t vastly different from what psxdev has released a few weeks ago, but it’s nice to have options. BDJ-SDK – What’s in there The repository contains currently 3 samples, that you can compile into isos, ready to be burned (you will need a Blu-Ray Burner, and some Blu-Ray discs, preferably rewriteable a.k.a. BD-RE). Scene member Tecniqueza has precompiled versions for those of you who don’t want to go through the compiling process Hello World JB-Demo File Dump Or you can get the source here . Screenshots (Hello World and File Dump above) Again, as others have stated, nothing groundbreaking here, but people who have access to the BD-JB exploit might want to try and start digging into their systems.

Nobara OS (Linux Distro) Released + Max Payne 3 and GTA 4 Full Screen Gameplay On PS4

Noob404 is at it again with another Linux release for the PS4, this time Nobara OS. In the video he provided with this release, you can see him demonstrate Fullscreen gameplay of Max Payne 3, GTA IV, and also a demo of OBS Studio running on the PS4. What’s Nobara OS for PS4? Nobara OS is a custom port of Fedora 35 made by Glorious Eggroll, the developer behind GE-Proton. The Nobara Project, to put it simply, is a modified version of Fedora Linux with user-friendly fixes added to it. Fedora is a very good workstation OS, however, anything involving any kind of 3rd party or proprietary packages is usually absent from a fresh install. A typical point and click user can often struggle with how to get a lot of things working beyond the basic browser and office documents that come with the OS without having to take extra time to search documentation. Some of the important things that are missing from Fedora, especially with regards to gaming include WINE dependencies, obs-studio, 3rd ...

PS4 : How to run the PS4 9.00 Jailbreak (Full guide with GoldHEN payload)

First of all, if your PS4 is not running firmware 9.00, you might want to upgrade it to that firmware. Note: if you’re on firmware 9.03 or higher, you can’t go back to 9.00 and you will not be able to run the Jailbreak. So be careful not to update to 9.03 by mistake 1. Prepare the magic USB stick Note: This step is only required once. You’ll need to use the USB stick every time you Jailbreak, but this preparation step is only needed the first time. The PS4 9.00 Jailbreak requires part of the exploit to be injected from a specifically crafted USB stick. You’ll need a dedicated USB stick for this, as it will be required each time you jailbreak the console, so use one that you don’t need for anything else. You don’t need anything huge, the image you’ll copy there is 4MB. Download the exfathax.img file from the pOOBs4 Jailbreak’s github. Plug your USB stick into your computer. You don’t need to format it, as the next step will do that for you. Download and install a tool to write the...

PS4/PS5 security: hacker TheFloW gets another $10’000 bounty from PlayStation. Why we think it matters

A few days ago, PlayStation’s account on HackerOne displayed a new awarded bounty, once again to hacker extraordinaire TheFloW, and once again for one of the top amounts in that bounty program: $10’000. The news is doing the rounds on hacking scene websites. It’s the second bounty awarded to TheFloW by PlayStation in less than 2 weeks, and for an amount that points to a critical security flow in either the PS4, the PS5, or both. Two weeks ago, the hacker had been awarded $20’000 for another vulnerability disclosure. PlayStation’s bounty program on HackerOne – a blessing in disguise for the hacking scene? In total, more than $250’000 have been awarded through this bounty program since its launch about 2 years ago (that’s not counting some of the reports which might have undisclosed amounts), with a significant share of that ($60’000 so far) awarded to TheFloW. This kind of information matters, because these security vulnerabilities have in the past been used to release Jailbreaks ...

PS5 Firmware 5.02 & PS4 Firmware 9.51 released, in context of FreeBSD heap buffer overflow vulnerability. Do not update if you want Jailbreak

PlayStation pushed PS5 Firmware 22.01-05.02.00 (PS5 5.02) and PS4 Firmware 9.51 yesterday. Those are your typical “improves system performance” updates, but as always, we (and several prominent members of the hacking scene) recommend you do not update your console, if you can, and if you’re expecting to Jailbreak it eventually. PS5 firmware 5.02 & PS4 Firmware 9.51 – What’s new PS5 – 22.01-05.02.00 This system software update improves system performance. PS4 – 9.51 This system software update improves system performance Call me paranoid, but in the context of a $20’000 bounty awarded to TheFloW recently, the fact that both consoles get an update at the same time, and a recently revealed FreeBSD heap overflow vulnerability ( CVE-2022-23088 ), that might impact both PS4 and PS5, I feel this update could be a significant hint for the scene. And it looks like I’m not the only one: PS4 Jailbreak 9.00 was found through a diff with firmware 9.03. It might make sense for hackers to l...

PS5 Jailbreak - The Status in 2022

PS5 Jailbreak 2022 Status Here are some of the key things that happened over the past few months, around PS5 security: We’ve had proof last year from hacking group Fail0verflow and PlayStation scene veteran TheFloW that the console can indeed be fully hacked. We’ve also seen a webkit exploit work on the PS5, up to firmware 4.03 included, and a PS5 usermode ROP toolchain consequently released. ZNullPtr has also recently confirmed he (and possibly Chendochap) has still been working on exploiting the PS5. PlayStation have also recently awarded a $20’000 exploit bounty to TheFloW, possibly for the PS5 exploit he’s mentioned last year. All of these are “promising” but are not any guarantee at this point. The only “usable” tool at your disposal, whether you are a tinkerer who wants to dive into PS5 security, or an end user, is the usermode ROP toolchain, provided your PS5 is on firmware 4.03 or lower. So, what’s next? What’s required for a PS5 Jailbreak In some shape or form, ha...
