today a researcher dropped a really rare type of exploit that can be used to jailbreak EIGHT generations of iPhones *and* the vuln is unfixable. so that's a thing now.https://t.co/6NHBYTeN5u

What was I saying recently about unpatchable bootrom exploits?
— Andrea Barisani (@AndreaBarisani) September 27, 2019
We find them constantly in automotive grade SoCs. Consumer products have even larger attack surface...
Future hacks will more and more target the code embedded in the silicon. https://t.co/R5vyWlvoM9
If you haven’t heard yet, an exploit was dropped on Twitter this morning capable of modifying the bootrom on nearly all iOS devices except the most recent. Learn about the possible implications here:https://t.co/nHkbEbpogu

Any iPhone 8/X or earlier can now be:
- booted to any iOS version, past/present/future, with no SHSH/APTickets
- booted to any OS (e.g. Android)
- compromised by attacker w/physical access, but still requires password (or brute force)for private data
Huge thanks to @axi0mX. These exploits are worth a fortune and to see @axi0mX share it for free is unbelievable. https://t.co/Mn8vSjhf0z

EPIC JAILBREAK: Introducing checkm8 (read "checkmate"), a permanent unpatchable bootrom exploit for hundreds of millions of iOS devices.
— axi0mX (@axi0mX) September 27, 2019
Most generations of iPhones and iPads are vulnerable: from iPhone 4S (A5 chip) to iPhone 8 and iPhone X (A11 chip). https://t.co/dQJtXb78sG
NEW: New Checkm8 jailbreak released for all iOS devices running A5 to A11 chips

-works on iPhones 4S up to iPhone 8 and X
-doesn't support A12 and A13 chipsets
-code available on GitHub

This is a HUGE deal. Both for the security of iOS devices, but also for the ability for non-apple employees to modify iPhones and conduct security research. It's also unfixable by Apple for all iPhones up to the iPhone X (any device with an A11 or earlier). https://t.co/6feAdPCuND

Spoiler: it’s awesome work, but not as scary as most may think (because of the Secure Enclave and persistence is still hard, etc.)

The jailbreaking exploit released Friday prompted lots of security concerns. But it turns out it's not remotely exploitable, doesn't have persistence, and can't bypass the Secure Enclave. That's not to say Checkm8 isn't impressive and important. Read on for why. https://t.co/kEyddP5PgZ
— Dan Goodin (@dangoodin001) September 28, 2019
"And since it’s ROM (read-only memory), it can’t be overwritten or patched by Apple through a software update, so it’s here to stay. It’s the first bootrom-level exploit publicly released for an iOS device since the iPhone 4, which was released almost a decade ago." https://t.co/Hg2AkApfpZ
