PS4 Jailbreak Might be Coming Soon

Stefan Mileschin · 29th December 2017, 06:35

Specter released a PS4 4.05 kernel exploit to GitHub today and stated it will allow jailbreaking and kernel-level modification to the PS4 system. However, they are not providing code that allows for homebrew or pirating games. With that said, I'm sure others will be more than willing to utilize this exploit to do just that. Thanks, cageymaru. Of course, jailbreaking has also become synonymous with breaking fundamental copy protection, allowing pirated software to run on a range of devices from cellphones to today's cutting-edge games consoles. The flip side of that coin is that people are also able to run so-called 'homebrew' code, programs developed by hobbyists for purposes that do not breach copyright law.
