PS4 Jailbreaking

Following the PS4 Kernel Exploit, today PlayStation 4 developer CTurt announced he plans to completely stop further PS4 research.

This news comes just prior to him sharing an article outlining PS4 kernel exploitation earlier today here: Hacking the PS4, Part 3 / Kernel Exploit for 1.76 / PS4-BadIRET (Private Repo)
From IRC:
[Delevler] hello all
[yifanlu] hello
[Delevler] Came here to ask if the ps4 kernel exploit is some real threat or just some patched old firmware
garbage?
[yifanlu] "threat" to whom?
[yifanlu] to sony, it's a real threat
[yifanlu] because it allows hackers to decrypt stuff and reverse it
[yifanlu] but yes, it's been patched since 2.x
[Delevler] so the person who recently said that he has "jailbraken" the ps4 just wanted to get famous or what
[yifanlu] I mean of course. we all know CTurt, right
[Delevler] oh he is here in chat , didnt notice
[CTurt] I am such an attention female dog
[CTurt] I hate it
[yifanlu] lol
[CTurt] I need to behave myself
[yifanlu] but yeah, it's useful for us devs but not really to any users
[Delevler] heh sorry i didn't want to offend you but I just couldnt find appriorate words how to say it
[Delevler] I know it opens a new gate for the devs but I wanted to know if it's something like the ps3
jailbreak
[yifanlu] badiret has been patched in freebsd for a while now. they forgot to post a security advisory so
sony never ported the changes
[yifanlu] which is funny because sony chose to fork an old freebsd version and manually put patches in
[yifanlu] I mean yeah sure, you can run backup games if you can get it working
[hykem] You can decrypt anything but no keys though, guess we could call it a jailbreak without the k and add
it a d for decryption
[hykem] Jailbread
[yifanlu] yum
[yifanlu] I mean that's pretty much the case on 3ds too
[yifanlu] we get a nice black box for decryption
[hykem] Yeah, but 3DS's jailbread is tastier
[HelsAngel] and fully 3d
[hykem]
[hykem] Anyway, with the current hardware crypto solutions, this will probably be the...

Hello, following his last update, today PlayStation 4 developer CTurt has posted new infos about the PS4 root FS and a list of PIDs

Download: gistfile1.txt / GIT
Spoiler: PS4 kernel exploit tease (root FS dump, and list of PIDs)

Following the previous update, PlayStation 4 developer CTurt has now confirmed the PS4 is officially jailbroken via PS4 Kernel Exploits with the ability to dump system RAM and more below!

From ***************** to quote, roughly translated:

Cturt through a tweet today, has confirmed that the PS4 could be said has already been hacked. We are still very green as to this issue but we have been having concurrent information.

Apparently it reports that could be effective for FW higher but that is waiting to be confirmed. For now, only those who are in 1.76 could soon enjoy their consoles released.

I was reading that console bundles of The Last of Us come with this firmware for those who still have not bought already have to start. As more information that WILL seep noted by the leave here.

Finally, from IRC comes the log below as follows:

[SorenAlke] here you-]NOR_DUMP.bin
[SorenAlke] bye
[toxuin] so. I've found a way to crash the system UI on ps4. Reproducible. Will it help anyone?..
[B7U3C50SS] it's useful to get a ram dump or so I've been told.
[toxuin] here's a video anyways:

[B7U3C50SS] okay. nice
[toxuin] it has access by url only, so should not come up in youtube search.
[B7U3C50SS] oh are you on 1.76?
[toxuin] nope.
[B7U3C50SS] i'm running 3.11.....
[B7U3C50SS] what are you running?
[toxuin] I'm running latest firmware, but this video was filmed awhile ago. I can still reproduce this on
latest firmware. Therefore had not urge to re-film this.
[B7U3C50SS] okay. i see
[B7U3C50SS] cool
[toxuin] I have no idea where to go from here with it but if it could possibly help anyone - glad to help.
[B7U3C50SS] try gettnig a ram dump or a dump of the kernel if even possible this way.. there shuould be a
targeted way of getting the kernel this way.
[B7U3C50SS] also.
[B7U3C50SS] well if you can overload the system you can try that..
[B7U3C50SS] i mean.
[B7U3C50SS] put in your usb..
[B7U3C50SS] asnd try it
[toxuin] I think it only...

Following the initial news and follow-up, today PlayStation 4 developer CTurt confirmed news of a PS4 Kernel Exploit via Twitter!

While this is fan-freaking-tastic news, keep in mind this does not mean there is a PS4 jailbreak... yet.

Keep an eye on our PS4 JailBreaking forum section though, and when there are further developments we'll be sure to post on them here!
