We have very good news about iOS 8 Jailbreak. Jailbreak developer iH8sn0w said that he had found a vulnerability iBoot-level, which allows to produce software tools to jailbreak the device with a processor A5 (X). A5 chip used in smartphones iPhone 4s, iPad 2, Apple TV 3G, iPod touch 5G and iPad mini, processor A5X - in the iPad 3.
Previous iBoot- level vulnerability in the iPhone and iPad with the A4 processor found a few years ago, the hacker Geohot. Any updates to the operating system from Apple can not block based on this vulnerability tools for jailbreak - a result, users are so-called untethered jailbreak. Now, jailbreak developers have found a low-level "hole" security chip A5/A5X.
iH8sn0w has no plans to use his discovery to create exploits and keep it for next releases iOS 8. According to him , the discovery of iBoot- A5/A5X vulnerability opens the possibility of "eternal" jailbreak for devices with processors A6/A7.
Based on vulnerability iBoot program no less effective than the exploits bootrom- described jailbreak developer. With proper use of "hole" allows you to create the untethered for any version of the operating system iOS 8 and iOS 9. In addition, it simplifies the task of finding vulnerabilities in the new firmware for the iPhone and iPad.
will one be able to specify the size of RAM during the jailbreak process on ipad 2 as is on ipad 1 with sn0wbreeze?
