PS4 Jailbreak Made Possible By Lizard Squad? Sony Playstation 4 Hacked To Be Able To Play Pirated Games And More

Tags

It looks like the Lizard Squad hacker group has done it again as they have allegedly improved upon the past PS4 jailbreak methods and made one of their own as they claim it's the best PS4 jailbreak around.

Cyberland has reported that Lizard Squad was allegedly able to find a security flaw in the latest 2.03 firmware of the PS4 which allowed them to look into the root files of PS4's OS and modify it to run their own code. That new code would allow them to run isos of Playstation 4 games.

Cyberland also notes that Lizard Squad took their code from the previous PS4 jailbreak hack made by "Reckz0r".

We previously reported that GrahamCluley.com claimed that Reckz0r has published a tutorial on how to jailbreak the PS4, which makes use of Orbis OS (as it is based on FreeBSD, an open source OS). Though Reckz0r does claim that he did not find the vulnerability himself, he is, in fact, the mastermind behind the PS4 hack tutorial. ReckZ0r also claimed that Sony has already contacted him and threatened to have him arrested for posting the PS4 jailbreak hack tutorial online.

According to the report, Reckz0r and Sony have already had a conversation using direct messaging in the official PlayStation Twitter account.

"No? We're giving you one day, to delete that Pastebin link you have recently posted, alongside with the files if you have uploaded them somewhere. It won't take us long to get you arrested if you're still going to proceed spreading the jailbreak. :) Take the Geohotz scenario as an example."

It should be noted that the PS4 jailbreak hack has not been made public since then.

Do you think the public release of the PS4 jailbreak would happen soon? Sound off in the comments below!
