People wondering why I'm not surprised: Amateurs produce iOS jailbreaks once a year (Pangu et al). Professionals won't be any less skilled.

People asking abt iOS10: Unlikely that existing toolkit works out of the box on 10. Even if underlying vulns still present, kit prob broken.

Absolutely true. 9.3.5 protects you from NSO customers, and expected copycat attacks once exploits become public. iOS10 more meaningful.

lol meant to subtweet Charlie on that last one. He's right. This jailbreak likely affects 10s or 100s of people.https://twitter.com/0xcharlie/status/768888565648412672 …

@0xcharlie doesn’t that depend on who the other customers are? -
IMHO exposure is vastly limited by the distribution method. SMS phishing can only claim victims so fast.
-
have you seen any exploit masq’ing as a carrier settings upgrade? Would that be possible?

my analysis tends to be something other than "no capability." F-Secure demo'd capability isn't just at K.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
