• Its in its beta phase (originally it was set-up for my system but I've cleaned it up so it should work on all systems), as such bugs may be appear.

Requirements

• Offical ModKit

Cheers to @jwooh for passing along this PS5 News awhile back!

Since his MUSL PS4 Port Low-Level Details and proceeding the recent ipv6-df-3.c proof-of-concept (PoC), today PlayStation 4 Scene developer @SpecterDev shared via Twitter PS4 KHook which is a minimalist kernel hooking payload he wrote for the DayZeroSec Twitch Stream that's handy for exploit debugging!

Download: PS4-KHook-master.zip / GIT

Here's further details from the README.md, to quote: PS4 KHook

PS4 KHook is a minimalist kernel hooking payload. It targets 5.05 but it can be used with any firmware (or even non-PS4 systems) with modifications. It's primary intent is for exploit development / debugging though it can be used anywhere hooking is needed (though Mira is recommended for long-term hooks for things like homebrew). It doesn't require a daemon to run for state tracking as it uses a code cave and a dispatch table.

Warning: the implementation is pretty hacky and it's not yet complete. Feel free to fork and pull request any improvements or TODO items.

Building and running

To build this payload you'll need the PS4 Payload *** from Scene Collective. Once installed, simply build this payload like so:
Important caveats

This hooking payload does have some caveats you need to be aware of before writing and installing hooks.

• Hooks must only have one return path, and it must return 0x1337. Additionally, the payload must be compiled without optimization (-O0). The reason for this is due to the runtime function size calculation for the hooks.
• Trampolines must be a minimum size of 10 bytes (0xA bytes).
• Trampolines cannot contain any instructions...
