A security researcher with the Qihoo 360 Vulcan Team, Qixun Zhao (@S0rryMybad), has revealed the second stage of an exploit chain in which he was able to remotely jailbreak the latest iOS system on iPhone X.
In a January 23 blog post, Zhao released the proof of concept (PoC) of a kernel vulnerability that can be reached in the sandbox, which he dubbed Chaos. For the benefit of beginners, he provides what he calls elaborate details on the tfp0 exploit, though he does not reveal the exploit code.
Instead, he stated, “if you want to jailbreak, you will need to complete the exploit code yourself or wait for the jailbreak community’s release. At the same time, I will not mention the exploit details of the post exploit, as this is handled by the jailbreak community.”
Zhao does demonstrate the jailbreak in a video posted to Twitter..
