iOS 8.1.1 blocheaza 3 din 7 exploit-uri ale Pangu jailbreak, Apple ii crediteaz ape hackeri

  iOS 8.1.1 blocheaza Pangu jailbreak si v-am spus acest lucru in repetate randuri in ultimele saptamani de zile, iar acum aflam ca 3 din cele 7 exploit-uri folosite de catre solutie au fost blocate de catre cmpania Apple prin aceasta actualizare. In documentul de securitate al iOS 8.1.1 publicat de catre compania Apple dupa lansarea acesteia ctualizari pentru sistemul de operare, cei din Cupertin listeaza cele trei vulnerabilitati de mai jos pe care le crediteaza hackerilor chinezi. Fiecare dintre ele a jucat un rol important in dezvoltarea solutiei de jailbreak si dupa cum puteti vedea, ele sunt disponibile in toate iDevice-urile Apple.

  Cei din Cupertino au obiceiul de a credita hackerii dezvoltatori de solutii de jailbreak atunci cand acopera diverse vulnerabilitati ale sistemului de operare, acelasi lucru intamplandu-se in cazul iPhone Dev Team sau Evad3rs, dar acest lucru nu este imbucurator pentru noi. Din pacate blocarea acestei solutii de jailbreak nu va aduce una noua in viitorul apropiat, dar cu siguranta vom vedea alta noua lansata in cursul anului viitor, indiferent cand va veni ea.
