![]() This often means they will wait until a specific firmware patches the exploit, before releasing the exploit. In general, the hackers collectively try to “time” their releases in a way that they do not feel wasteful. Which doesn’t mean there isn’t anything happening under the hood, but certainly indicates that people should be patient. None of the reputable hackers has shared a “hint” of anything that would be kept under wraps at the moment. There is no ongoing discussion on the scene about a “new” kernel exploit. That has been patched in 9.03 (the patch from 9.03 is actually how the exploit was discovered by Chendochap, through a diff), which is why 9.03 and above are not exploitable at the moment. This is what the pOOBs4 exploit did on firmware 9.00. kernel exploit), the actual “Jailbreak” that gives us full control of the console. The next, and arguably more important step, is a privilege escalation exploit (a.k.a. The Webkit entry point is only the first step to Jailbreaking a console. something else didįirmware 9.50 however allegedly patches the Webkit vulnerability, so we already know that people who choose to update to 9.50 will potentially have a harder time exploiting their console in the future. Webkit did not get patched from 9.03 to 9.04 (confirmed by an anonymous source). The good news on that front is that the webkit vulnerability used for the 9.00 exploit is still apparently open as of firmware 9.04, according to scene veteran Zecoxao: Historically this has often been a webkit vulnerability. To “Jailbreak” a PS4, we typically need two exploits:įirst, a “usermode” exploit, which is an entry point to run unsigned code through data that you have control of, as a PS4 user. The current status of PS4 exploits is as follows: There were many heads ups but you somehow missed them, so now you have to be patient. ![]() So if you’re on 9.03, don’t hold your breath. But it’s been as low as 4 months and as high as 2 years. Historically, the average time between 2 Jailbreak releases on PS4 is 9 months. But since the last Jailbreak was only a couple of months ago, people shouldn’t be holding their breath. Without any significant news on the exploit front, nobody can really predict how long it’s going to take until the next one. But it has been as low as 4 months, and as high as 2 years. As I’ve mentioned before, the average time between two jailbreaks is around 9 months. ![]() Patience is key if you’re waiting for a PS4 Jailbreak. Of course if you find a new PS4 for a reasonable price, go for it, it’s very likely it will be under 9.00 at this point.įor those of you who are stuck with a higher firmware and for some reason cannot buy a 9.00 PS4, there are two important rules you’ll need to follow: 1) patience, and 2) do not update your PS4. Now, It is rare enough to be emphasized: this time around you might have better luck buying a used PS4 9.00, than trying to get a new model, as those have been out of stock for some time now. TL,DR: the best option for you if you’re looking to Jailbreak your PS4, is to buy a PS4 running firmware 9.00 or lower, at this point ( eBay is your friend). Icing on the cake, Firmware 9.00 is recent so it’s easy enough to find a PS4 with Firmware 9.00 or lower at a reasonable price.īut there’s a growing number of people stuck on recent firmwares 9.03/9.04/9.50 wondering what’s coming for them. A lot of tools and homebrew games have been updated to the latest exploitable firmware. The PS4 scene has been on fire with the recent pOOBs4 Jailbreak release for firmware 9.00. A growing number of PS4 users are “stuck” on Firmwares 9.03/9.04 (and soon 9.50), and wondering when we should expect a new Jailbreak.
