Fail0verflow&#8217;s post does not detail the exploit the group used, but the tweet says the keys were &#8220;obtained from software,&#8221; suggesting the group didn&#8217;t need to make any modifications to the hardware itself.<\/p>\n<p>Separately this weekend, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.psxhax.com\/tags\/theflow0\/\">well-known PlayStation hacker theFlow0<\/a> tweeted <a href=\"https:\/\/mobile.twitter.com\/theflow0\/status\/1457362920501829636\">a screenshot<\/a> showing a &#8220;Debug Settings&#8221; option amid the usual list of PS5 settings. As console-hacking news site Wololo <a href=\"https:\/\/wololo.net\/2021\/11\/08\/ps5-kernel-exploit-theflow-showcases-debug-settings-menu-on-retail-console-no-plan-to-release\/\">explains<\/a>, this debug setting was <a href=\"https:\/\/wololo.net\/2021\/08\/15\/ps5-devkit-testkit-debug-settings-pictures-surface\/\">previously only seen on development hardware<\/a>, where the GUI looks significantly different. But TheFlow0&#8217;s tweet appears to come from the built-in sharing function of a retail PS5, suggesting he has also used an exploit to enable the internal flags that unlock the mode on standard consumer hardware.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad_wrapper\" aria-label=\"In Content advertisement\"> <span class=\"ad_notice\">Advertisement <\/span> <\/aside>\n<p>TheFlow0 <a href=\"https:\/\/mobile.twitter.com\/theflow0\/status\/1457363632560476162\">adds<\/a> that he has &#8220;no plans for disclosure&#8221; of his PS5 exploit at this point. In recent years, TheFlow0 has <a href=\"https:\/\/hackerone.com\/theflow0?type=user\">taken part in Sony bug-bounty programs<\/a> that reward the responsible disclosure of security flaws in PlayStation hardware.<\/p>\n<h2>A history of hacking<\/h2>\n<p>The weekend announcement from Fail0verflow comes roughly 11 years after the group <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/gaming\/2010\/12\/ps3-hacked-through-poor-implementation-of-cryptography\/\">announced<\/a>&nbsp;that it had uncovered the private keys for the PlayStation 3 by taking advantage of a faulty cryptography implementation on Sony&#8217;s part. Sony later <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/gaming\/2012\/10\/sony-faces-setback-as-hackers-release-playstation-3-decryption-keys\/\">sued members of the collective<\/a> for what it said was circumventing the system&#8217;s security;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/gaming\/2011\/01\/sony-granted-temporary-restraining-order-against-ps3-hacker-george-hotz\/\">hacker George &#8220;GeoHot&#8221; Hotz<\/a>&nbsp;discovered the same information independently and <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/gaming\/2012\/10\/sony-faces-setback-as-hackers-release-playstation-3-decryption-keys\/\">published the actual key on his website<\/a> (the case <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/gaming\/2011\/04\/hotz-lawyer-ps3-hacking-case-over-dmca-and-ip-abuse-live-on\/\">was later settled<\/a>).<br \/>\nBack in 2013, Fail0verflow <a href=\"https:\/\/fail0verflow.com\/blog\/2013\/espresso\/\">wrote a blog post<\/a> suggesting that &#8220;we may have reached the point where homebrew on closed game consoles is no longer appealing,&#8221; thanks in part to &#8220;a very real threat of litigation&#8221; and the fact that &#8220;game pirates would become not just big users of the result of those efforts, but by far the overwhelming majority (not because there are more pirates, but because there are fewer homebrewers).&#8221; But in 2018, Fail0verflow was one of a number of hacking groups that <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/gaming\/2018\/04\/the-unpatchable-exploit-that-makes-every-current-nintendo-switch-hackable\/\">discovered the &#8220;unpatchable&#8221; exploit<\/a> allowing unsigned code to run on the Nintendo Switch.<\/p>\n<p>It remains to be seen if and when similar exploits for the PS5 will become public and if Sony will be able to temporarily cut them off with firmware updates <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/gaming\/2011\/03\/infamous-hacker-says-latest-ps3-firmware-is-secure\/\">as it has in the past<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> READ MORE <a
