etaHEN

🚀 Support the Project

If you find this project useful and would like to support its continued development, consider buying me a coffee! GitHub Sponsers

Building from Source

The Source code is provided in the Source code folder under GPLv3 with all the necessary files to build it as required under GPLv3 However I will not be providing instructions on how to build it since any dev should know how to use cmake

Official PS5 exploit website

  • https://tinyurl.com/PS5IPV6 (requires you to manually send the payload but has the best stability)
  • https://ps5jb.pages.dev/ (auto loads the payload for you, id recommend the IPV6 exploit over UMTX)

Recommended self-host exploits

  • Modified IPV6 exploit for etaHEN support

Payload PowerShell Script usage for Windows (send_payload.ps1)

if you haven't already, you will need to either enable script execution globally via

Set-ExecutionPolicy Bypass

in an admin PowerShell window or run the script with this command after replacing the script path

powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File C:\Path\To\send_payload.ps1

Script Usage

.\send_payload.ps1 -Payload "C:\path\to\example.elf" -IP "192.168.xxx.xxx" -Port XXXX

OR

.\send_payload.ps1

cmdlet send_payload.ps1 at command pipeline position 1
Supply values for the following parameters:
(Type !? for Help.)
Payload: C:\path\to\example.elf
IP: 192.168.xxx.xxx
Port: XXXX
