iOS 5.1 untethered jailbreak Update

Here is an update regarding untethered iOs 5.1 jailbreak. Pod2G, a prominent iOS hacker from Chronic Dev Team, has said via twitter that the team has all exploits to tangle with the new jailbreak and they are working on it.

What is ASLR?:

Address space layout randomization (ASLR) is a computer security method which involves randomly arranging the positions of key data areas, usually including the base of the executable and position of libraries, heap, and stack, in a process’s address space. Apple introduced ASLR in iOS 4.3. This makes it harder to jailbreak the iDevice, and stops apps from breaking the device accidentally.

On the other hand, Gran Paul says that people should not expect the jailbreak anytime soon. He says that though all the exploits have been found, but it does not mean that the jailbreak exists. So the moral of the story is: Just wait and let them do their great work!

Update: Pod2G has just said via Twitter that he has bypassed ASLR and now it’s time to ROP the payload.

Great Work Pod2G!
