Recent jailbreak news (Jailbreak and kernel debugging is coming) (Patreon)

Christmas came and brought some good jailbreaking news.

1. Def1nit3lyN0tAJa1lbr3akTool
2. Possible KTRR bypass (HUGE)

Def1nit3lyN0tAJa1lbr3akTool SOURCE

A "fun" jailbreak for iOS 15.7 and iOS 16.5, iPhone X. This is a jailbreak, but i'm not completely sure the use case here as i'm jailbroke on 16.1 iPX with palera1n using checkm8 exploit so I didn't look into it much. It is verified a working jailbreak here: https://x.com/iM4CH3T3/status/1739202347375481148?s=20

Possible KTRR bypass SOURCE

This could be big. First it supports A12-A16 devices below 16.6. This seems to be a kernel text read only region bypass (KTRR). This would be more powerful than a simple PPL bypass (Page Protection Layer) as KTRR is the mechanism that prevents modification of an iOS kernel at runtime.

If this protection layer is bypassed then things like PPL can easily be mitigated as well as most any jailbreak blocks. It's a massive exploit. I wouldn't classify it almost as powerful as checkm8. Checkm8 exploits boot rom code which is built in the processors. but.. This is very promising and could create a very powerful jailbreak.

Follow the sources to keep up and I will keep following it as well and let you know.

Happy Holidays.

PS. There is a lot of people upset that they just updated to iOS17. I will share some advice. Don't follow what people do/say on Twitter. They are most likely just posting for content rather than a good idea. If you wish to jailbreak always stay on the lowest firmware possible.
