Hackers have recently achieved important goals in hacking the PlayStation 5. The Fail0verflow team claims to have access to PS5 rootkits that allow them to decrypt Sony console firmware and take it one step closer to jailbreaking the device.
In addition to Fail0verflow, Google security researcher who identified with the username theflow0 also able to debug settings menu PS5 access not find . Both achievements are significant because of the high level of access they provide. By decoding the firmware, the Fail0verflow team will find more capabilities for reverse engineering the PS5 software, and could provide a platform for tools that hacked Sony's previous consoles.
On the other hand, Sony will undoubtedly seek to combat these hacks and do its best to eliminate the existing vulnerabilities. Of course, these two vulnerabilities do not change much for PS5 owners at the moment, and we are not going to see a PlayStation 5 jailbreak any time soon.
In addition, the Fail0verflow and theflow0 groups have not released details of their hacks, and it is not clear if they intend to release them, as theflow0 has said it has no plans to provide more information. However, Fail0verflow had previously released information about the PS4 hack only after the release of the Sony patch for the PlayStation 4 vulnerability.
Overall, it seems unlikely that theflow0 did this with the intention of hacking the PS5. As a security researcher, he has been rewarded with about $ 20,000 in recent years for finding Sony security issues, and it looks like that would not be out of the question.
Users have pointed to the complexities that the jailbreak of the PS5 could create for backward compatibility with the PS3 and PS2, given the possibility of the PS5 being hacked.
