Urbz Posted October 4, 2007 Share Posted October 4, 2007 Here's some proof: http://www.touchdev.net/wiki/Decrypt_Firmw...Buffer_Overflow And here's the article. I posted this on another forum, but might as well post it here too: It remains to be seen how easy this 'bug' would be for Apple to fix... If it's too easy, it may not have helped much. But, if access can be gained to the insides (software-wise) of the iPod touch/iPhone then it is a leap forward to decrypting it's firmware. Basically, in theory, you could work backwards. Instead of breaking in, it could be possible to break out once we've fallen in, if anyones catches my drift. That, in turn, could lead to a better method of decryption not only for 1.1.1 but also for future updates. As of right now, however, more progress has been made in the decryption process (as seen in the links above). It may be that the iPhone dev team (which is now also the iPod touch dev team, as long as both devices remain similar) is close to jailbreaking firmware 1.1.1 of the iPhone and iPod touch. What do you think? -Urbz Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/65425-ipod-touch-and-iphone-firmware-111-almost-jailbroken/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
