In advance, thanks to Red-EyeX32 for pointing this out in a Skype conversation. I'd also like to clarify that since PS4 was built off FreeBSD, the sandboxes are called "jails", so jailbreaking is the correct term.


At about 9:28AM EST, CTurt has claimed that he has managed to break the webkit process out of a FreeBSD "jail" (or sandbox). For those who don't know, jailbreaking was coined as you were "breaking out of a jail" or sandbox that an application is in, as if an application is sandboxed and you gain remote code execution, the damage is contained within that jail (very similar to sandboxie which is used here to check programs for Remote Access Trojans).

Now this hasn't been confirmed however CTurt is a known, trusted source of information and has already released some tools such as the PS4 Playground Tools and his open source PS4 SDK. He's also stated within the last hour or so that he has managed to dump RAM from process such as "SceShellUI". This is a huge step forward towards the possibility of custom firmware for the Playstation 4. Below are snapshots of the tweets of his announcement of the You must login or register to view this content. as well as the You must login or register to view this content..

Now there's still much to be done, including lots of reversing and other exploring to do, however as I've said it's a big step. This only works on firmwares 1.76 or lower, but that doesn't mean indefinitely that there won't be more exploits in the coming future for higher firmwares.

Piracy's all fine and stuff, (especially if you want to try and buy; or the game is shitty), but the major con of PS4 jailbreak is modding. I actually like the leaderboards for a 3arc game not being totally and completely fucked by kiddies that couldn't get to round 2 legit. That being said, I don't care if another company's COD or another series altogether is modded :p I just want that free PS+ (fuck Sony for forcing that on us for online play) and trophy hacks Woot Besides, I wouldn't benefit from piracy, because my internet is shit lol.

He's not saying it isn't the best method for modding (which in my humble opinion it isn't, too much work), he's just saying it won't happen anytime soon, as file modding is, in a way, easier and more stable than RTE, and that most people don't know much about file modding because all anyone cares about seems to be RTM/RTE.

And because there is no support to switch from Retail to Debug. So it's going to be the same from the good old days of file modding on the Playstation 3.

98% don't even know what a Kernel is Red... Sal

All they know is on how to spell Cex, Dex, RTM, RTE.

Everyone is getting all hyped about a PS4 getting ready to mod and crap. Like, yeah have fun waiting 4 more years bud! :p

Memory editing is the best imo as u can edit anything on the game you want in one place

it can be stable if you use sprx but a program can't really be stable if ppl r using it as the connection is different for everyone on how fast the packets get sent to the console
