	tl;dr: Relapse is a PS5 jailbreak exploit chain supporting firmwares 7.00 through 13.60, delivered via a custom DNS or hosted webpage. The browser stage exploits a JSC structured clone object pool mismatch to corrupt a typedarray, while the kernel stage chains an address leak with an `aio_multi_wait` UAF race to gain kernel read/write, exposing an ELF loader on port 9021. Stability is imperfect—WebKit may require retries and kernel attempts can panic the console.
	HN Discussion: ↑Interest in using the exploit to regain user control like backing up game saves •Speculation that hacking communities hoard additional zero-days for deeper exploits ↑Technical curiosity about WebKit JIT attack surface and Sony's likely response ↑Frustration that users must hack legally-owned hardware to gain full control ↑Hope the exploit enables Linux or repurposing the PS5 as a general-purpose computer
