Finally, the PlayStation 4 has fallen victim to hackers who have managed to break the security of the current Sony console to load backups of games and other unofficial applications.
PlayStation 4 is already a victim of hackers
Sony has seen helpless as the PS4HEN and PKG Kitchen tools responsible for hacking its PlayStation 4 have been released. The first of these is a means of loading homebrew, that is, unofficial applications that are developed by the community. The second is a tool that allows the loading of backup copies from an external storage medium, for this it is in charge of modifying the files and producing an installable and executable pkg.
Exploit in PS4 kernel opens doors to jailbreak
It is also commented that it is possible to load PS2 games using Free PS2 Pub Gen, a tool for this purpose. For now, everything is limited to firmware 4.05 or lower, so users who have a higher one installed will have a difficult time.
It appears that the vulnerability found in the official Sony firmware allows you to run a backup upload tool that runs independently of the console operating system. More details may be revealed at Recon Brussels 2018 on February 3.
