PS4 hack: Mathieulh states he has a 5.53 Kernel exploit
| Quote: | 
if you’ve been keeping your PS4 on firmware 5.05 or lower, stop reading right now: SpecterDev announced a few hours ago that a PS4 5.05 Jailbreak release will happen in the next few weeks. But if you’re one of the poor souls who are stuck on firmware 5.50, 5.53, or above, you might want to keep reading.
Mathieulh, known for his contributions to the PSP and PS3 scenes, has recently been sharing a few bits and pieces of information on PS4 hacking. Earlier today, he shared on twitter something that indicates he was able to dump and decrypt firmware 5.53, hinting he likely has access to a 5.53 Kernel exploit.
As often, this information comes with little details, and in particular no word of a release. To the people who asked, Mathieulh replied that when you’re not happy about hackers keeping their exploits private for some time, the best (only?) thing you can do about it is to start learning about hacking yourself.
Granted, hacking a console is way more difficult today than it was 10 years ago.
In the twitter thread, the developer has commented on the upcoming 5.05 jailbreak release, stating there were good reasons it took some time (even if it is right around the corner now). A logical interpretation is that the hackers wanted the SDK to be ready. The same statement was made by Qwertyoruiop later today.
In the same tweet, he said “Keep in mind that a 4.55 exploit chain was published not long ago, so things do get shared”. As much as people get frustrated by the delay in releases, it’s important to understand that in order to find more exploits, hackers always have to keep at least one exploit private at a given time, so that they can reuse it to investigate further firmwares. There’s also a different level of implications for a hacker who would publish an exploit on the latest firmware (a zero day) versus an exploit for an older firmware. Even though legally a company like Sony could probably find good reasons to at least threaten a hacker in both cases, a public zero day hack (i.e., today, that would mean a hack on firmware 5.53) would damage their business way more than a hack released for an older firmware.
What’s in it for the End user?
What’s in this announcement for the scene is hope, pretty much. If you’re on 5.50 or 5.53, you now know that a kernel exploit exists for your firmware. |

there's a pattern though.
they find a new exploit for current fw and release the one for previous fws
weve seen that in the x360 days as well

. . .because there's no proper "first post FAQ." For example:
As a computer noob, does this method require an actual internet connection when you are self hosting? Periods of time when I take my PS4 with me and internet access isn't reliable.

You don’t need internet to self host locally.

I figured that, but wasn't sure. Thanks for the quick info. Got a spare PS4 just sitting around. . .this should be fun.

Shame there are no later exploits. I fancy buying a pro and hacking but super unlikely to get one hackable!

I bought a glacier white one last week with God of War and Hidden Agenda from Argos for 349.99. It was on 4.73.
Took me a fortnight to eventually find one though as everywhere appears to be very low on stock at the moment. Took a 100 mile round trip to finally get one.

Do all white pros | JackQ wrote: | ha?

But that’s my point, none around. I assume because they’re announcing a revised version at e3?

Did you just watch the white stock to see when someone had one listed? That is currently showing bone in the whole of the UK! You got lucky with argos there man. Are all white PS4 pros hackable? The argos site suggests it just adds the game to a stock white PS4 pro!

It's a promotional bundle they offer. You buy the stock console and they throw in God of war and a playlink game of your choice at the checkout online. When it flashed up they had stock i searched for in-store collection and found one near my in-laws. I reserved and collected on the day. Most of the stores on that link will get a couple in a week - you need to be quick though.

So I’ve thought about this but decided that unless I can play future games then I’m not bothered.
All games up to today I’ve bought and played already, and resale wouldn’t get me much. Therefore, as I assume this hack means future games will still be tied to later OFW, then I don’t see much point for me.

Give him a break, I think Horrordee is kind of pissed off by people bragging latest FW exploits without releasing them.
Oh BTW 5.55 FW got released today !

Update - Star Wars Bundle came with 4.73. God of War had me update to 5.05.
Pretty good day. 
Edit:
Doh!! Can't update the game because it requires debug to install PKG files..

As I said multiple times anyway, there is no 5.05 patch for GoW.
Every patch released for GoW are 5.50+, and this includes the 1.01 patch too.
So you are stuck with the 1.00 version of the game, which is the only version compatible with 5.05.
This version doesn't have PS4 Pro features (dynamic 4K and performance mode).
