Webkit exploit confirmed to run on PS4 Firmware 1.76!
Developers nas and proxima have extended the recently released Vita Webkit exploit, and made it compatible with the latest PS4 firmware, firwmare 1.76. (Update: Proxima actually clarified that although this is the same webkit exploit, it was developed in parallel to the Vita exploit, and not “based” on it)
Their proof of concept code provides several samples, including a module dumper and some tool to create more advanced ROP code.
I am not close to my PS4 right now and cannot confirm if the Proof of Concept actually works, but the code looks perfectly legit, the devs behind this have a great track of record, and it should be a matter of minutes now for other people to confirm that this indeed works.
This webkit exploit, just like in the case of the same exploit for the Vita revealed last week, will not be extremely useful to the end user, except to confirm that their PS4 is indeed exploitable. It does however seem to provide some basic tools for developers who want to explore its functionality, and, more importantly, it is the first public entry point into PS4 hacking ever, which is a massive breakthrough.
This piece of news comes just as Sony have announced upcoming firmware 2.00, which will be released next week. It goes without saying that if you have expectations to use the hack that just got released, it might be wise to not update your PS4.
Where to test this?
I have uploaded the proof of concept pages here, you can point your PS4 to these urls, and report:
- http://wololo.net/v/176/ps4_dump.html
- http://wololo.net/v/176/ps4_dump2.html
- http://wololo.net/v/176/ps4_rop2.html
Of course as soon as I have the possibility, I’ll be testing those myself.

The flyyyyyiiiinnnngggg!!!!!!!!!????
More piracy disguised as an hack to allow emulators.
Don’t deny it.
This has nothing to do with piracy. This is just Step 1 in possibly finding a way to run our own code.
Seriously, 99.9% of the people working on this stuff have no interest what so ever in piracy. We really do just want to run our own code, and see what home-brew other people come up with.
Could this enable piracy? *Maybe*. But so could your computer and we don’t see them blocking you from downloading apps on that.
Don’t make assumptions, because you’re just wrong. I have 3 systems with various home-brew on them, and no pirated games. Most are like me.
In the great scehem of things, i dont think most people are like you if you’re referring to that most people want to use hacks for homebrew only.
Scheme*, big typo there from me, sorry.
You are right. and so is the guy below me or above me. I don’t know actually this is my first ever post on the wololo blog to be fair. I have actually only made one post on the wololo forum so far. But I can’t stand the scam artists of YouTube. all the time. it just bogs my mind that people like the dark progammer and alpha hack as well as CturtE who have done so much for the scene as well as AS WELL as our dear Wololo have to put up with them… ’cause you know YouTube exists. actually i think xDPx puts up with it more than the rest. but you my friend made a valid point about the fact that this is not a HAC,K YET! it is a means to an end and that is is code execution and that is a means t o a kernel exploit.which we still need to figure out. and by we i mean people with both a 1.76 and a 3.11 PS4 which i might be an owner of both come this February .only time will tell. so far i have a non-hacked one.
greaaat
Y eso no servira a los ps3 que viene con firmware mayores a 3.55 (No me gusta el COBRA ODE)
On peut faire quoi avec ça ?
u can compile jspspemu.com into it
and with it u then can emulate psp on any system
or run native code on any system
How I turn off automatic updates ?? GOOOODDD this is awesome!
Im defo holding out on updating my ps4 I wanna see whats to come in future..
FWIW, I won’t be taking part this time. Jailbreaking my PS3 seemed like a no-brainer, since it was what, 6 years old by the time it happened? But the PS4 is new and still has a way to go. I’d like to support the PS4 game industry, and not provoke Sony to take features away like we saw with the PS3. I *would* like to be able to play emulators on my PS4, but only so I could disconnect my PS3.
Why is this post so badly narrated, you actually didnt explain a thing.
I ran a 2 modules and it was written that did not have enough memory on my Ps4 , someone knows tell me how to use this webkit I thank you anyone can help me and thanks
Ive still got over a year of accidental damage and till 2016 on my pslus… after not having viable home internet for over a year, my net is getting turned on this Thursday so… Im waiting on the side lines on this one… If things progress I will be buying a secod ps4 :->
Anyone can confirm if it works on update 2.0? Since its out
no 🙁
What can we expect from this exploit because i have the need to update
Hola primero vengo a agradecer el gran trabajo que están haciendo para bien de la Scene. Mi pregunta es la siguiente…. Q posibilidad existe que apartir de este exploit se pueda ejecutar Homebrew y que requerimientos se necesita para ingresar a la Nand, si ta que se tiene este exploit nones necesario descifrar las Keys gracias de antemano para ti la respuesta muy agradecido con este gran paso.
Well Im defo holding out on any update now there is exploit found. Time will tell 🙂
Can play pirate games with it?
Glad you included a screenshot of nothing. /slowclap
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD

@Wololo is there a tutorial somewhere on the forums for people that don’t know how to get code execution?? or will that method not be released for a while i mean it’s still only on 1.76 for now right? people still don’t seem to know how to do it.
