Misaka, the package manager app that became popular for hosting MacDirtyCow and kfd exploit-centric hacks and add-ons, received another update Friday afternoon, this time bringing it up to version 3.2.8.
The latest update, announced via the Misaka Discord server, appears to introduce the following changes:
– Added some icons
– Added support for beta versions of iOS
– iPhone XR: iOS 16.2 beta 1 (20C5032e)
– iPhone 13: iOS 16.5 beta 3 (20F5050f)
– iPhone 12: iOS 16.3 beta 2 (20D5035i) & iOS 16.4 RC (20E246)
– iPhone 13 Pro Max: iOS 16.4 RC (20E246)
– iPhone 12 Pro Max: iOS 16.2 beta 3 (20C5049e)
– iPhone 11: iOS 16.3 beta 1 (20D5024e)
As it would seem, the latest version of Misaka now supports more devices on additional versions of iOS — namely those beta builds listed above. It also adds new app icons that can be applied to display on the Home Screen instead of the original.
As a package manager app, Misaka is a place where you can search for, install, and manage your favorite add-ons for the MacDirtyCow exploit for iOS & iPadOS 15.0-16.1.2 and the kfd exploit for iOS & iPadOS 15.0-16.1.2. Misaka also hosts JavaScript-based add-ons for iOS & iPadOS 17.
Misaka recently added a function to install TrollStore 2 on kfd exploit-vulnerable devices as well.
