Developers are making great use of the MacDirtyCow bug present on iOS & iPadOS 15.x-16.1.2 devices, which allows sideloaded or perma-signed apps to perform tasks that would typically only be possible with a jailbreak.
The iOS 16.1.2 update brought with it a redesigned battery level indicator for notched handsets that displays a more accurate icon fill to match the numeric percentage. Sadly, users of non-notched handsets aren’t quite as fortunate.
Last week, we shared the news about how the XinaA15 jailbreak tool for A12-A15 chip-equipped devices running iOS or iPadOS 15.0-15.1.1 had been leaked to the general public, resulting in the developer’s decision to launch an early public testing period.
This past Wednesday, we saw the public testing release of the XinaA15 jailbreak tool for A12-A15 devices ranging from the iPhone XS to the iPhone 13 Pro Max running iOS 15.0-15.1.1, and while it supported tweak injection, there was an issue where users couldn’t sign in to repositories such as Havoc or Chariz via package managers like Sileo and Zebra. This, of course, meant that users couldn’t install their previously-purchased tweaks.
TrollStore developer opa334 is out with another update for the popular perma-signing utility for iOS & iPadOS 14.0-15.4.1 (and some 15.5 betas) this Tuesday afternoon, this time bringing it up to version 1.4.4.
The TrollStore perma-signing utility by opa334 for iOS & iPadOS 14.0-15.4.1 (and some 15.5 betas) received another bug fix update early Monday morning, officially bringing the utility up to version 1.4.3.
After just yesterday releasing TrollStore version 1.4 with significant changes to the way apps are perma-signed, project developer opa334 on Sunday released two consecutive updates for the popular hack for iOS & iPadOS 14.0-15.4.1 (and some 15.5 beta) devices with bug fixes that users won’t want to miss.
TrollStore, everybody’s favorite perma-signing app for iOS & iPadOS 14.0-15.4.1 (and some iOS 15.5 betas) was updated to version 1.4 on Saturday with significant changes.
The palera1n jailbreak, intended for developers and powered by the same venerable checkm8 hardware-based bootrom exploit used by the checkra1n jailbreak, received an update on Monday to add semi-tethered support for devices running iOS & iPadOS 15.0-15.3.1.
At the start of October, Linus Henze took the stage at the Objective by the Sea conference to showcase his Fugu15 jailbreak on an iPhone running iOS 15.4.1 with a slick new installation method that reminded a lot of us of the JailbreakMe days. And as of this Monday, it’s officially released and open source on Henze’s GitHub page.
Sakura Development team member @dora2ios, perhaps best known for their part in developing the kok3shi jailbreak, has released a new work-in-progress developer-centric jailbreak tool called ayakurume for iOS 15 that utilizes the same checkm8 hardware-based bootrom exploit as the venerable checkra1n jailbreak tool.
Following the release of Linus Henze’s developer-centric Fugu15 jailbreak for arm64e devices running iOS 15.0-15.4.1, iOS developer opa334 released two subsequent updates to TrollStore to fix an issue with installing the Fugu15 jailbreak through the popular perma-signing utility. The first update was marked version 1.3.3, while the second was marked version 1.3.4.
