Evasi0n

evasi0n's icon

evasi0n is a jailbreak tool that can be used to jailbreak (untethered) iOS 6.0-6.1 on all supported devices, excluding the revisions of the Apple TV 3G. It was released on 4 February 2013 by the evad3rs, and is available for Windows, OS X, and Linux (x86 and x86_64). There is also a Cydia package called "evasi0n iOS 6.0-6.1 untether" which can untether an existing tethered jailbreak without the need to restore and use the desktop tool.

Supported Devices

As of evasi0n's release, the only unsupported devices are the Apple TV 3G revisions, since the kernels on these devices are still missing an injection vector to run unsigned code. All other devices on iOS 6.0-6.1.1 are supported (as well as iOS 5.2 for the Apple TV 2G).

Exploits

evasi0n takes advantage of at least five distinct new vulnerabilities:

• Use of symbolic links in time zone file to socket
• Unix "shebang" trick
• Change of launchd.conf for untethering
• AMFID code-signing kernel changes
• ASLR circumvention by using ARM exception vectors

Code

launchd.conf

bsexec .. /sbin/mount -u -o rw,suid,dev /
setenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES /private/var/evasi0n/amfi.dylib
load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.MobileFileIntegrity.plist
bsexec .. /private/var/evasi0n/evasi0n
unsetenv DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES
bsexec .. /bin/rm -f /private/var/evasi0n/sock
bsexec .. /bin/ln -f /var/tmp/launchd/sock /private/var/evasi0n/sock
