This includes games that require peripherals, such as the PlayStation VR or PlayStation Camera. It's important to note that not all games support Remote Play. Though a slower connection will work, you'll need at a minimum broadband speed of 5Mbps for Remote Play to work. Sony recommends having a broadband connection that is at least 12Mbps and using a LAN cable for the best experience. Remote Play allows you to play your PS5 or PS4 through other devices, be it a television or a smartphone.Īll you have to do is ensure that the device you wish to use for remote play has the PS Remote Play app and that the PS5, or PS4, is correctly set up for Remote Play and that you have a strong Internet connection to prevent as little lag as possible. There is probably enough in the presentation for people to take this information some step further.Īdditionally, the hacker did not stop at kernel access, but proceeded to do some hardware glitching in order to be able to extract the console’s kernel bootloader.Watch on YouTube Remote Play for the PS4 and PS5, including restrictions, explained
I unfortunately did not see the presentation itself, and it is unclear to me how much is being revealed in the slides, although it seems like it could be… a lot.įirst of all, it appears the hacker is leveraging (and revealing) a not publicly known kernel exploit on the PS4, leveraging a vulnerability in sys_kldload. We explain how a chain of exploits combined with hardware attacks will allow code to run in the context of the secure bootloader, extract private keys, and sign a custom kernel. The custom Southbridge silicon, responsive for background downloads while main SoC is off, didn’t help to secure Playstation 4. In the Video below, we can see the hacker running an FTP server, among other things, on the PS4 that was hacked in Rest mode. The slides state he’s been sitting on the exploit for 2 years, and decided to disclose it since Sony does not have a bug bounty.
Earlier today, he released the slides and a demo video of his work in action. Hacker Volodymyr Pikhur has presented and exploit of the PS4’s Rest mode a couple days ago at the Recon Brussels hacking conference.
