Today the new Apple TV [1] has been jailbroken by hacker MuscleNerd [2] from DevTeam. He used the SHAtter exploit [3]. This means that hackers were able to gain full access to the device. Here is MuscleNerd's comment on twitter [4]:
AppleTV [5] 2G SHAttered and jailbroken (not quite sure how to run apps yet!)
MuscleNerd and the rest of the Dev-Team will probably create a public release of some utility soon. Here is a youtube video showing off the jailbroken device:
