It is apparently based on this: WebKit CVE-2012-3748 (http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/56362)


Is this remotely exploitable in a dangerous way? Or just a tool for people to hack their own PS4s?


Based on the fact that you can test this via visiting an URL, I'd guess it is. I think v2.0 of the PS4 firmware is about to be released, maybe it's fixed in this version.
