RedSn0w 9.10 beta 5 launched, now with iBooks solution

RedSn0w 0.9.10 beta 5 for iPhone

Another upgrade to the famous jailrbeak app RedSN0w has just been seeded. Developers of this useful tool, the super stars of jailbreaking, iPhone Dev Team have once more updated this application. This time they have solved another troubling issue: iBooks. The issue was created with the help from PlanetBeing, another individual jailbreak developer.

This fix contains a solution for the iBooks, but now it includes the so called DRM options. The solution comes in a form of a software utility named ‘Crazeles’, developed and released by @PlanetBeing. ‘Crazeles’ avoids anti jailbreak scanning, which is executed by the iBooks app. If the scanning is done, a number of your books could become useless. ‘Crazeles’ is working in a similar vein as the ‘Hunny pot’ solution which was developed previously by @Comex.

Apple blocks untethered Corona jailbreak with iOS 5.1 beta 3

Caution sign

We have waited for some long time for a stable and reliable untethered jailbreak for iOS devices runnig iOS 5. The jailbreak was finally developed and released only recently, at the end of the last year. It has enabled a excellent untethered jailbreak for all iOS devices, with exception of devices with A5 processors such as iPad 2 tablet and the latest iPhone 4S. Sadly it seems that it didn’t take too long for Apple’s engineers to patch the exploit which enables Corona jailbreak to work. A number of jailbreak developers have confirmed that the jailbreak isn’t working anymore with the beta 3 version of iOS 5.1. Keep in mind that the same exploit is being used in the latest version of RedSn0w jailbreak, so the same thing applies for this jailbreak too.

Corona untethered jailbreak, additional informations released

Corona jailbreak

Famous jailbreak developer Pod2g has added some new stuff about his Corona jailbreak on his own personal blog. If you are by some chance interested in how the mechanics of jailbreaking iOS 5.0.1 really functions, you might want to check out his blog.

In his own words: by using a “fuzzer”, he found out after some effort that an vulnerability exists in the sol called racoon config parsing code. If you wonder what racoon actually is: no its not the small hairy mammal, racoon is actually “ IPsec IKE daemon”. It is a part of iOS and it starts up when you begin a Ipsec connection. By the way: the name of this jailbreak - Corona is actually an anagram of racoon.
