Hackers Shows Browser Jailbreak [Video]

A well-known hacker Luca Todesco who has successfully jailbroken iOS 9.2, iOS 9.2.1, iOS 9.3, and the yet to be released publicly iOS 9.3.3 beta, has recently showed the untethered browser jailbreak of iOS 9.3.2. To hack an Apple-branded device, the developer used Apple’s native browser Safari, which, as it turns out, is quite vulnerable to such threats.

The video below depicts the sixth-generation iPod touch running iOS 9.3.2 and the process of browser-based jailbreak. Unfortunately, it is very unlikely that Todesco will release a public tool for jailbreak. According to the hacker, he’s mostly interested in research, not actual hacking of iPhones, iPads and iPod touch units running the latest firmware versions.

The video shows a 6th-generation iPod Touch running iOS 9.3.2 being jailbroken right through Safari -- without the need for a computer. This browser-based jailbreak could provide one-step jailbreaks similar to JailbreakMe, which was last released for iOS 4.3.3 by comex and used millions of times.

The latest public jailbreak tool was released for iOS 9.1. Since that time, we haven't seen any major news from hackers and jailbreak developers.
