Redsn0w
The redsn0w program is a specific implementation of the 0x24000 Segment Overflow for the iPod Touch 2G. It's a command-line utility for Windows, OS X and Linux that jailbreaks the device and installs basic jailbroken software on it, in a manner similar to QuickPwn. It's currently closed-sourced but the executable is being worked into several third-party GUIs as the underlying engine.

See the 0x24000 Segment Overflow page for a full description of the vulnerability and exploit. Credit for that work goes to a mixture of the Chronic Dev and The iPhone Dev Team.
