Unc0ver hacker team has released a tool to jailbreak iPhone and iPad with operating systems from iOS 11 to the newest iOS 13.5. It was successfully developed using the discovered OS vulnerability, which allows you to overstep some restrictions Apple. About it writes TechCrunch.
Hackers note that the jailbreak is stable and does not affect the autonomous operation of devices or the privacy of user data. It does not undermine the security of the iOS sandbox, which allows programs to run separately without being able to retrieve information they don't need. Moreover, jailbreak does not affect the operation of Apple branded services - iCloud, Apple Pay or iMessage will work.
unc0ver lead developer in conversation with Wired“Jailbreak simply adds exceptions to the existing rules. This only allows you to read new jailbreak files and parts of the filesystem that do not contain user data. "
With this jailbreak, users can download apps for free from alternative stores such as AltStore and Cydia. However, security experts recommend not tampering with the iOS system settings, as any such operations significantly increase the risk of discovering new vulnerabilities that can be used against you.
