KASLR Spells Trouble…

One feature of the iOS 6 firmware that was not discussed at the WWDC 2012 was KASLR. What does KASLR stand for you might ask? Well, KASLR stands for Kernal Address Space Layout Randomization, which is essentially the next step up from ASLR that was introduced in iOS 5. For non technology orientated individuals both KASLR and ASLR serve a simple purpose – to make your iOS device more secure. This is great for those running stock iOS devices, but for the Jailbreaking community this spells trouble.

With the addition of KASLR in iOS 6 it essentially breaks any current exploits hackers have in their possessions to Jailbreak the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.

Hacker @Veeence has recently tweeted about KASLR and has mentioned that due to KASLR the Rocky Racoon exploits are not longer valid and as such new exploits are needed.

No. iOS 6 is not compatible with Rocky Racoon exploits.iOS 6 now has KASLR, a new security layer (anti-JB), so new exploits are needed.

Although KASLR will definitely mean more work for hackers in the Jailbreaking community, it is not the end of Jailbreaking. And according @i0n1c, KASLR is not even something to be too worried about because there are other security features implemented in iOS 6 that are going to be more troublesome.

From what I hear KASLR is one of the things in iOS 6 that will not be a problem at all. Other stuff is more troubling.

I shall keep you posted about any new discoveries made in iOS 6.

The First Commercial Jailbreak…

Well, as I see it someone has finally helped i0n1c live his year-long dream. If you did not get the clue, I was pointing out that someone has finally released a new jailbreak which is PAID. The exploit is done by a Russian hacker @legerov. The tool is known as Vulndisco Mobile 1.7 which allows you to untether any A4 device on iOS 5.1.1. Oh by the way for your information, this jailbreak was popularized by none other than i0n1c.

The idea behind the InteVyDis jailbreak is that you use Redsn0w to tether jailbreak your device and then Vulndisco Mobile module builds a custom bundle you have to install on your device with the help of redsn0w. After this you will have your device jailbroken and you’ll get remote CANVAS shell.

Here is the video of how their jailbrak works:


If you are one of those i0n1c followers then you can go ahead and purchase the jailbreak from here.

Well since Pod2g’s last update on his jailbreak, we see that it is only a few days away and more over Absinthe 2.0 will support all devices including A5s, the jailbreak as usual will be a free one, so I don’t see anyone paying for this jailbreak other than ardent i0n1c supporters.

What are your thoughts on this?

i0n1c “Achieves” Another 0day…

iOS Hacker Stefan Esser aka i0n1c who had successfully jailbroken the new iPad running iOS 5.1, has just revealed that has also jailbroken his 4G LTE iPad 3 running iOS 5.1.1.

Along with the tweet he has published a photo, which shows Cydia running on his 4G LTE iPad 3 running iOS 5.1.1.

It means that the exploit he had used for the untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1 still works with iOS 5.1.1. Unfortunately, don’t get your hopes up as i0n1c has categorically stated that he doesn’t plan to release the untethered jailbreak.

i0n1c later tweets as to why does Cydia show his device as “iPad 3 (AT&T)” :-

BTW You have to blame Saurik for the AT&T stuff in Cydia. He wrongly calls iPad3,3 the iPad3 AT&T.

Pod2g who has been also working on the untethered jailbreak for iOS 5.1 has made quite a lot of progress and had managed to untether jailbreak his iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1.
After a few minutes Pimskeks (a member of the jailbreak dream team) tweeted:
Meanwhile, MuscleNerd has revealed that it is still possible to downgrade to iOS 5.0.1 from iOS 5.1.1 using the unreleased method that iH8sn0w had discovered.

5.1.1 shows Apple knows about an unreleased technique to downgrade A5 devices to 5.0.1 with saved blobs (but left it  alone..hmm)

Do you think we will see a public release of the iOS 5.1.1 jailbreak?

Round-Up of All the Three Jailbreak Exploits…

If you’ve been following us for the past few hours you by now have known that there have been three jailbreak exploits by four different renowned developers/jailbreakers/hackers on the same day residing in three different locations.

All the posts might be clattering in your mind so I thought before ending the day I should write the summary of all the three posts.

First up: @MuscleNerd‘s exploit

He was the first one to jailbreak the new iPad with his own method. Here are the images:

  

Second: @i0n1c‘s exploit

He has been telling us that he has an exploit for the iOS 5.1 even before it was released and it seems those words were quite right because he posted a video of his untether jailbreak:

Third: @chpwn and @phoenixdev‘s exploit

They were the third and fourth people to find the third iPad 3 exploit and showed it off with these images:

  

Hang on! It’s not over yet I have some more good news from the Dev-Team Blog:

  • We can confirm that the method used to jailbreak the iPad2 4 months ago (before corona) still works even in 5.1.  That means we’ll at least be able to get our foot in the door to get the required kernel dumps on the iPad3.  That’s an important step, but by no means is it the end of the story.
  • Those of you following @i0n1c may have noticed he’s already tweeted pictures of his iPad2 jailbroken at 5.1.  As far as we know, he’s using a method completely unrelated to the one mentioned above.  That would be great news!
  • We’ve also seen bits and pieces of an entirely different jailbreak method being investigated by someone close to the Cydia repo scene.
There is also a caution note posted by MuscleNerd on the blog:

Don’t update your new iPad3 past whatever iOS it comes shipped with

By the way, it’s rare but entirely possible that some of you may find your iPad3 comes with an iOS version that’s not quite 5.1.

One last thing, in the midst of these three exploits everyone is forgetting pod2g, I think he will also come up with another exploit for an untether jailbreak.
Now that the exploits have been found all we have to do is wait for a public release of one of these or perhaps two of these or perhaps all three of them. I’am also expecting new jailbreak tools with these exploits.
So what do you guys have to say about March 16? (Pretty slick day huh?)

Another exploit for the new iPad…

Hot off the heals of MuscleNerd posting his images of the jailbroken iPad 3 came i0n1c’s jailbreak exploit with a video and a just a couple of minutes ago chpwn tweeted that he also managed to jailbreak his iPad 3 with another different exploit!

Having three different exploits I think the public release of the jailbreak should be imminent and should be in the near future.

Here are the images.. the third one is really beautiful:

  

I guess having three different exploits that to on the day of release is pretty amazing, looks like Apple’s engineers did a bad job this time.

Not to forget: Pod2G this time you got owned! :P

Whom do you think will release his jailbreak exploit first?

Do you think we’ll be seeing more jailbreak tools after 3 consecutive exploits?

The Race is over…

In my previous post I told you about the race for a stable jailbreak exploit for “The New iPad” with the A5X processor has ended already, i0n1c emerged on top. His latest tweet tells us that his jailbreak is now finally an untether and he is trying to upload a video proof for us.

This jailbreak exploit did not take as long as everyone expected… but no one knows if it is perfectly stable for a public release as of now. So there is still no ETA.

Here is i0n1c’s tweet in which he tell us he has an untether jailbreak for the iPad 3,3:

He goes on to add about his video proof:

Hmm… even though i0n1c is a great developer/hacker it seems that he is not too good at remembering things… nor did he think about using a 4S video stabilizer. (Just kidding).

Now it seems i0n1c did get the idea of using the video stabilizer and tells us:

Hmm that untether video seems to be quite big in MB

 

Personally I think he should stop whining.

So what do you guys think will this jailbreak be released to us?

Race to achieve a stable 5.1 exploit is on!

i0n1c, the known iOS hacker and developer of the iOS 4 exploit that ran through three versions (being untether) has now again focused on playing with Apple toys. On his Twitter timeline he had posted images of his iPad 2 jailbroken on iOS 5.1 running Cydia version 1.1.5, this sounds good but the problem is that we yet don’t know if it is tethered of untethered but no matter what, we can consider it as a start.

Here are the images:

You might be happy but that joy will probably end now because there might not ever be a public release by i0n1c.

I said: “by i0n1c” so who is the other one working on it?

pod2g is working on finding an exploit but it seems i0n1c got to it first.

Now let’s focus on the one day old “New iPad“. To tell you in a line.. it has already been jailbroken by MuscleNerd, he posted images on his Twitter timeline of his jailbroken iPad 3rd generation. But we also don’t know if this is untethered or tethered.

Here are the images of The New iPad with A5X processor jailbroken:

Just after MuscleNerd tweeted these picture i0n1c was quick to reply back saying:

That meant i0n1c also has the exploit for the new iPad.

Now reading these tweets I said that this is a hypothetical race… it is not a race in reality (so don’t come back to me with links).

Wat do you guys think, who will be the first one to get the jailbreak exploit to be untethered or stable for release? i0n1c already has one but who will release it first?
