PS4 Kernel Code Exec Achieved by Qwertyoruiopz on 5.00 Firmware!

Following his recent PS4 5.00 OFW Kernel Bug & Webkit Exploit announcement, PlayStation 4 developer qwertyoruiopz has now confirmed he's achieved PS4 kernel code exec on PS4 System Software 5.00!

To quote from Zer0xFF's comment on Twitter: "Assuming the new kexploit, That should help in finding a way to trigger the previous one as well, right?"

And qwertyoruiopz's response, to quote: "Indeed."

As usual, below are some related Tweets and here's to hoping qwertyoruiopz passes along the necessary details to other developers on the PS4 userland / kernel exploit findings if he doesn't plan to release them himself so that someone can bring the public PS4 scene out of the 1.76 era finally.

Thanks to @hyndrid for the news tip in the PSXHAX Shoutbox earlier today!

Wow. Thank god that this guy is incapable of lying, cause I mean otherwise, he could just say "indeed", while actually achieving nothing.

Thankfully he is Vulcan, and cannot lie. Everyone take this straight to the bank and upgrade to 5.0 right now.

Is this the part where we have to say "Oh you're such a great guy "... Nah don't think so......

 

[PSNORE]

I guess we'll just have to wait and see

In other news, I just got done with my daily intake of Taco Bell and damn if it didn't give me some stanky farts.

More of the same I guess... absolutely nothing. Next up, GLITCH'N found an exploit on 6.00

That's fine because BANKROPPER will find one in 7.00 in 2019...

Profit in Asia and south america was the main reason of keeping the hacking scene going. the stores in these countries make profit from selling systems and backup games. now the scene is more of a hobby.

 

[Scarrus]

Aren't they still selling JB Systems and backups in those parts of the world anymore?

Qwerty found kernel base address and others check it out

People need to be able to patch games to lower FW. That way the exploit can be released and all users on 5.00 can jailbreak and not update to future firmwares. Patching the games for lower FW removes the purpose of update. This is simple, just like the PS3 scene, I have a PS3 Cobra ode still on 4.53 and I'm playing it all just fine.

Nothing released = didnt happen

No one asking you for anything, so fck off. If people have money they can buy 2 ps4 or buy games. If they don't have money then stay low or sell console, don't think people are begging here. And don't think yourself a smart ass. Every human on earth are using things that someone else has invented or found.

I don't know if you are old enough in this forum, but let me explain to you. Do you remember when qwertyuiop called us "Jailbreak Beggars" ? That is what I was referring to. You just don't learn! He won't release anything! He's just a boy craving for attention. Expect something that comes from guys like Specter, Zecoxao or Flat_z! They are the real deal! Peace
