My Payload

(Since RedSn0w will be out any day, this is just for the hell of it :)

If anyone has any ideas and would like to mess around with this hack, here is some code that (should) patch a 2.1.1 iBSS that you loaded, in memory. Again, just for fun, as the dev team probably has redsn0w, it's payload, and program almost completed.

How do you pass the bootrom RSA checks?

I've noticed that the exploit is at the iBoot level. So how do you (or the Dev-Team) pass the bootrom RSA checks?

I do not know how it is done, but taking the screenshot on the latest devteam blog post, they have found a way to do so.

RE: RE: How do you pass the bootrom RSA checks?

Okay, as to MuscleNerd's redsn0w demo, it's pretty yellowsn0w like - you have to let the bootrom sigchecks pass, and then use the exploit every time the device boots. Pretty annoying, but that's the only option without a way to pass bootrom sigchecks.

Wel...

They noted they are looking for a way around that.
