MuscleNerd (RedSn0w)
Only a 2-3 day ago , popular hacker and iPhone Dev Team brain member MuscleNerd tweeted that a new upcoming update to the Redsn0w 1.0 will make both TinyUmbrella blob and Cydia blobs saves useful for iOS 5.0+ . This is a great news for the downgraders.
But…
Pod2G (GreenPois0n):
Today I succeed in jailbreaking my iPod 3G. The exploit is user-land, rely on a user ROP payload and a kernel write anywhere exploit.
I can’t give much details right now, but here are the next steps :
- upgrade the iPod 3G to iOS 5.0.1
- do the same on iPhone 4 / iOS 5.0.1
- then iPad 1 & iPod 4G
At every step, the exploit code needs certainly to be reworked, but I really don’t know right now. Next, I’ll return to the research for iPad 2 and iPhone 4S. I don’t know if I gonna release first for other devices or not. I’ve to think about it. Feel free to give your opinion.
We’ll keep you up to date with news on pod2g’s progress.
WHO IS THE WINNER?
