PS4: Mathieulh shows he has a 5.55 kernel dump, taunts Sony
Hacker Mathieulh shared a string extracted from a PS4 kernel dump, from the latest 5.55 firmware. The string contains the date the firmware was compiled. This date, he says, is enough proof that he has a decrypted dump of the PS4’s 5.55 kernel.

Mathieulh had shared a similar string from firmware 5.53 a few days ago. This is proof that whatever exploit he and a few others have in their possession, hasn’t been patched by Sony’s recent updates. Firmware 5.55 was released less than a week ago, so this is pretty impressive.
His tweet even takes a jab at Sony by directly including their official twitter account in his message. He also uses the opportunity to taunt other hackers, stating he is he first to decrypt the 5.55 firmware.
When asked, he also replied there would not be an exploit release for 5.5x in a long time. The upcoming 5.05 kernel exploit is what we’ll have for now 🙂
come on men its augest now u mean that i have to sell my ps4 just to play games with 5.05 fw.come on realese the 5.55 jailbreak and then dont realese the next one im waiting for long time. give me solution guys please

Please notify me when 5.55 comes out
D: is he just never going to release the exploit? My pro has been collecting dust for months. I just want to know so I can sell it so somebody can get some use out of it.
