iOS 7.1b4 Reportedly Blocks Kernel Exploit Used In Evasi0n Jailbreak of iOS 7

Apple has reportedly blocked the kernel exploit used by the evasi0n jailbreak of iOS 7, according to iH8sn0w. The exploit was blocked in the iOS 7.1b4 firmware just released to developers.

So the code sign bug that evasi0n7 uses still exists in 7.1b4. Kernel exploit looks patched though :P

meaning… Don’t expect an evasi0n7 update for 7.1b4+ support.


The news is unfortunate; however, we still don't know what exploits will be blocked in the final release of iOS 7.1 and what exploits the evad3rs have alternatives for.
