Volodymyr Pikhur to Give PS4 Presentation at Recon Brussels 2018
Similar to GeekPwn, the CCC Conference, Zer0Con and Tencent Security Conference hacker Volodymyr Pikhur who previously shared a demo of his PS4 IPL AES + HMAC Key Recovery Project will be giving a PS4 presentation at Recon Brussels 2018 on February 3rd at 16:00. 
Here are the details from their conference page, to quote:
By: Volodymyr Pikhur
Scheduled on: February 3 at 16:00
This presentation will talk about how custom Southbridge silicon, responsible for background downloads while main SoC is off, didn’t help to secure PlayStation 4.
It will explain how a chain of exploits combined with hardware attacks will allow code to run in the context of the secure bootloader, extract private keys, and sign a custom kernel.

PS4 HEN 4.05 Exploit Payload Webpage (No PC Needed) #PS4HEN is Lit
If you have a PlayStation 4 on 4.05 Firmware and haven't jumped on the PS4 exploit bandwagon yet, this may be a good time as the PS4 Homebrew ENabler (PS4HEN) payload was forked from IDC's GIT and added to PS4-HEN-VTX (Exploit Ps4.rar) by @XVortex (who brought us FTPS4 and PKG Kitchen), which can now be sent via Webpage (no PC needed) thanks to Detective Liliruca with the PS4HEN_405exploit.tar (thanks faisalk87 for the link) also included in PS4 Exploit Host v0.3.14 by @Al Azif for local hosting and accessible HERE. 
In the PSXHAX Shoutbox earlier tonight @LightningMods reminded us how simple it is now to go from (for example) a PS4 v4.00 OFW console to 4.05 running PKG game backups, as follows:

PS2 Game Backups on PS4 HEN 4.05 & Make_fself.py Update by Flat_z
Following his PS2 emulation research and recent write-up, PlayStation 4 developer @flatz unveiled screenshots on Twitter of some PS2 game backups running via PS4 HEN on an exploited PS4 4.05 console while sharing an updated make_fself.py to fix issues users have experienced recently. 
He notes the PS4's PS2 emulation seems better than PS3's, citing that @zecoxao tested a non-working game (Klonoa 2- details HERE) on PS3 and it worked on the PlayStation 4.
In related PS4 hacking news today, following his Fake PKG Generator and Make FSELF GUI PlayStation 4 developer @cfwprophet (Twitter) updated his tool to include bug fixes and the addition of a PS2 Emulator authentication information database now supporting PS4 PS2 PKGs.

To quote from Flat_z's PS2 on PS4 Guide:
orbis-pub-cmd.exe patch to allow gdo project creation (it's better to rename file by adding ps2 suffix, for example):
you should take some dump of ps2-ps4 game and use it as template, i've used max payne (EP1004-CUSA04488_00-SLES503260000001), it have 1 disc only

PKG Kitchen - PS4 Guides, Tools and Scripts for Fake PKG Creation
Ok, guys, let me introduce the PKG Kitchen - the toolset for the easy creation of PS4 packages.
First sorry for my ugly English. I hope you understand me
Toolset does not use flat_z method to assume gp4 package structure and (probably) has a issues, but it allows you to create more or less working packages and use it as a base for experiments.
Related Files:
Brief Instructions:
0) Extract Fake PKG Generator into the tools folder;
1) Clean the kitchen environment (run _clean.bat);
2) Turn on the console;
3) Insert disc, make sure it is fully installed/copied (skip for PSN title);
4) Run the ps4-ftp-vtx payload, connect into the ps4 by FTP client;
5) Minimize (PS Button), but do not close the WWW Browser;
6) Run your game, make sure to get main menu, minimize game (PS Button);
7) Copy files:
8) Restart your console, remove disc, uninstall the game (for further testing);
9) Run the _extract_pkg.bat script. You should get the 'Image extract succeeded' message;
10) Run the tools\ArchiveExplorer.exe, open pfs_image.dat in dump\pfs dir,
select all files, and extract selected files into the app folder.
Wait until the end of the process (this can take a long time)!
11) Copy (overwrite) dump\app\* files into the app folder...
