PS5 Relapse still stops at firmware 13.60; 14.10 is outside its published range

The latest public Relapse release still lists support only through PS5 firmware 13.60. That leaves consoles on 14.00 and later outside the project’s published range, including Sony’s October 1 update, 26.06-14.10.00. Relapse’s README does not claim support for either 14.x version. Sony’s notes for 14.10 mention security fixes and improved performance and stability, but do not identify the vulnerabilities addressed. Some coverage has linked the timing to Relapse; Sony has not confirmed that this update specifically patches the exploit. The distinction matters: the public compatibility limit is clear, while the exact security changes are not. Released on September 29, Relapse substantially widened the range of PS5 firmware covered by a public jailbreak. Its repository describes a browser-based WebKit stage followed by a kernel exploit, with an ELF loader for running further code. Ars Technica reported that the release reaches consoles up to 13.60 and also covers PS5 Pro systems on supported firmware. It is a chain of exploits, not a permanent unlock or a promise that every payload and app will work. There are practical caveats. Relapse’s own notes say the browser stage may take several tries and that the kernel stage can hang or panic the console. The project lists firmware 7.00 through 13.60 as supported; that range is the best reference for checking a console’s eligibility. The broader homebrew scene continues to build around the release, but newer loaders or payload projects do not by themselves extend Relapse to 14.x. For now, the firm update is about the boundary: 13.60 remains the newest firmware listed by the Relapse project, while 14.00 and 14.10 are outside its stated support. Sony’s 14.10 notes do not say whether every relevant exploit path is closed, and no public Relapse release for 14.x appears in the project’s current documentation.
