Hackers Find New Exploit for iPhone 3GS with new Bootrom: Gull1hack

We knew this was gonna happen, maybe not this soon. Seems like a group of hackers have found an exploit to achieve the untethered jailbreak on the iPhone 3GS with the new bootrom that should have been very hard to hack.

“This Exploit works on ALL iPhone and iPod Touches.

While booting, we overun the buffer memory, letting the iPhone think there is something wrong; But in the moment it tries to enter safe mode, we send a boot signal like Blackra1n or Redsn0w.”

Now you guys just have to wait. Still no words from the Dev Team though, we’ll see.
