iOS 9.3.2 Browser-Based Jailbreak Demoed

If you haven’t heard yet, Apple has recently released a beta for iOS 9.3.3, which is expected to get released in the coming days. While Luca Todesco aka qwertyoruiop, the talented Italian hacker who has been teasing us by showing off a jailbreak for iOS 9.3.3 beta, has just released another video, which shows he can successfully jailbreak an iPhone running iOS 9.3.2 using Mobile Safari.

Similar to the now classic JailbreakMe, the method used by Todesco can apparently jailbreak the device directly from Safari, without requiring a computer.

This is great news for jailbreak enthusiasts because it shows that despite Apple efforts to tighten security of their software and devices, there are still ways to get in. However, it seems that Todesco is not interested in making its discoveries public, thus making a potential jailbreak for the masses very unlikely.

The latest iOS version that can be jailbroken currently is iOS 9.1. Back in October, Pangu Team released a new version of their popular Pangu Jailbreak tool to jailbreak iOS 9 – iOS 9.0.2. Apple responded quickly to kill the Pangu Jailbreak by releasing iOS 9.1, which patched several vulnerabilities used by the jailbreak tool. It continued patching some more exploits in iOS 9.2 and iOS 9.2.1 used in the Pangu Jailbreak. But Pangu team responded recently, by releasing a new version of their Pangu Jailbreak tool to jailbreak iOS 9.1. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work with iOS 9.2, iOS 9.2.1, iOS 9.3, iOS 9.3.1 or iOS 9.3.2.

We will update you as soon as more developments are made in this regard.
