AppleInsider reports that the security research team at Alibaba’s Pandora Labs has just revealed via a blog post that it has jailbroken iOS 11.2.1, the most recent iOS update that was just released to the public last Wednesday, on iPhone X. This clearly shows that iOS 11.2.1 has vulnerabilities, so we can expect another update soon to fix them, no doubt.
“Although iOS 11.2 fixes some security issues, we confirmed on the day of release that the new version will still be able to jailbreak,” said Song Yang, head of Ali Secure Pandora Laboratories. “Although we soon escaped iOS 11.2 perfectly, we were limited to security research purposes, so jailbreak tools will not be provided.”
Pandora Laboratories also posted a photo showing an iPhone X with Cydia installed, an app that can only be used on jailbroken iPhones, in support of their confirmation that they had successfully jailbroken iOS 11.2.1.
