The PS5 hacking scene just took a big leap forward

The new Relapse exploit significantly advances PS5 jailbreaking by supporting firmware up to version 13.6, dramatically expanding the pool of exploitable consoles. It leverages a known WebKit vulnerability to gain kernel write access and runs arbitrary code more efficiently than previous methods that could hang for 50 minutes.

Background

PS5 jailbreaking has been a long-sought goal for enthusiasts, but prior exploits only worked on outdated firmware versions, limiting practical use for most console owners.
