PS5 BDJ HEN Loader is a new tool from developer BenNoxXD that allows you to automatically load exploits like etaHEN and kstuff onto jailbroken PlayStation 5 consoles by simply inserting a disc into your Blu-ray drive.

The update only improves the stability of the “ClosePlayer” function and adds a payload dedicated exclusively to closing the player.

Note: Sometimes system errors occur, such as crashes or “something went wrong” messages, but these are harmless: just press OK and the loading will proceed without problems .

The loader supports several usage modes. You can run etaHEN directly from disk, or, if you prefer, you can provide customized versions of etaHEN or kstuff/data/ by copying them to a USB stick or your console directory .

Parts of the project

HENloader_C_part

This is the actual HEN loader, compiled in ELF format. It automatically closes the reader and sends the HEN payload.

HENloader_Java_part

It is simply a JAR container for the ELF file, which sends the included ELF to the address 127.0.0.1:9021.

ClosePlayer

It contains only the part dedicated to the automatic closing of the disc player, without any HEN loading.

Supported configurations

There are several configuration modes available:

Default: The etaHEN file is loaded directly from the inserted disk, without any additional modifications.
etaHEN only: You can replace the disc’s etaHEN file with a custom one. Simply copy the file etaHEN.binto the root of a USB stick (priority 1) or to the /data/PS5’s directory (priority 2).
Just kstuff: Works the same as etaHEN, but with the . file kstuff.elf. Copy it to the root of your USB stick (priority 1) or to /data/your PS5 folder (priority 2), and it will load instead of etaHEN.
Combo (etaHEN + kstuff): Copy both files etaHEN.binto kstuff.elfthe root of the USB (priority 1) or to the directory /data/(priority 2) on the PS5.

To tell the system to load etaHEN first and then kstuff, add an empty file called no_kstuffto the root of the USB drive or to /data/etaHEN/. You can also split the files: for example, etaHEN.binon the USB drive and kstuff.elfin /data/, or vice versa.
