Step 1: Heat your iron, which has a chisel tip, to around 400 degrees.

Today Sony released a PS4 System Software / Firmware 6.20 update proceeding their 6.02 OFW and 6.10 BETA updates.

While it's already confirmed by Cedsaill‏, EdiTzZMoDz and Sassy the 6.XX PS4 WebKit Exploit still works on 6.20 PS4 Firmware alongside the upcoming PS4 6.02 Top Secret Method also confirmed as still working on 6.20 OFW, the official changelog only states the following sparse details:

As always DON'T UPDATE if you wish to use PS4 game backups and homebrew apps when a jailbreak exploit arrives, and we'll add any related Tweets below as PlayStation 4 scene developers have a chance to examine it.

For those following, this discussion is moved from the ongoing PS4 6.XX JSC_ConcatMemcpy WebKit Exploit POC thread and based on the Tweets below is not to be confused with M0rph3us1987's 35c3 Speech later this month.

While there is no ETA just yet, established PlayStation scene developer @zecoxao announced on Twitter the following from the embedded Tweets below to quote:

"Top Secret method for ps4 6.02 coming soon..." followed by "reminding everyone that this is a method, NOT an exploit. it'll only be good for things like games, nothing else" and also "once it's patched, it'll be over again."

Those on PlayStation 4 Firmware above 5.05 who are curious about PS4 exploits will be pleased to hear that following his PS4NES v1.01 update developer m0rph3us1987 is scheduled to speak at this month's 35c3 Chaos Communication Congress 2018 hacking event about exploiting PS4 Video Apps in order to run unsigned code regardless of the firmware version installed!

The 35th Chaos Communication Congress (35c3) 4-day event runs from December 27th to the 30th 2018 in Leipzig Germany with pre-sale tickets and additional details available for those interested in attending.

To quote from the 35c3 Event Page, roughly translated: Exploiting PS4 Video Apps

• 2018-12-28, 12: 00-12: 50, Chaos West Stage

"Video Apps on the PS4 are something wonderful. In this talk, I'll show you how to exploit them to run your own unsigned code (regardless of the firmware version installed). Step by step I show what problems I stood at the beginning of my entry into the PS4 scene and how I have these, in order to reach the goal, have solved.

Almost three years ago, my wife gave me a PS4 for my birthday. She could not have guessed that I would do anything with the console, just do not gamble. This talk will be about the project with which I set foot in the PS4 underground scene.

Step by step we will see what was needed to run unsigned code on a foreign / unknown system. I will explain the exploit and its steps in as much detail as possible, and thus show that software exploits are not magic but a consequence of logical processes."
