## What it is
A kernel exploit for PlayStation 4 firmware 9.00 that leverages a filesystem (exfat) bug triggered via a specially formatted USB drive, combined with a browser-based userland exploit. On success it applies kernel patches (RWX memory, kexec, setuid, etc.) and launches a payload loader on port 9020.

## Use cases
- jailbreak a PS4 on firmware 9.00
- run homebrew payloads on a PS4
- get kernel-level code execution on PS4
- apply kernel patches to enable unsigned code on PS4
- set up a payload loader for PS4 homebrew
- exploit PS4 firmware 9.00 via USB exfat bug

## When to choose
- you have a PS4 on firmware 9.00 (or lower with adapted userland exploit) and want kernel access
- you want to run homebrew payloads via the standard port 9020 loader
- you need kernel patches like RWX mmap, kexec, or sys_dynlib_load_prx

## When to avoid
- your PS4 firmware is above 9.00
- you want a purely software exploit without USB preparation
- you are looking for a ready-made homebrew suite rather than an exploit entry point
- you cannot risk wiping a USB drive or corrupting the kernel heap

## Facets
