We are all almost certain that the jailbreak world is over and will not return again. For the public, it stopped on the cusp of iOS 11. Even his mention began to fade away little by little, and his mention became one of the first legends of iOS and became a reminiscence of the time of fine art. The main reason for this we mentioned repeatedly in previous articles, and on top of those reasons was the continuous filling and patching of security holes and strengthening the protection shields surrounding the iOS system and Apple devices. This is not the features that Apple provides day after day, quite similar to those tools that we used to use from the Cydia store. And most of us do not crave jailbreak as we were in the first era. But a strange thing happened in the past few days, especially with the launch of the first beta of the latest Apple systems, iOS 12, more than hackers who specialize in the jailbreak world tweeted that they had succeeded in jailbreaking the latest Apple devices and systems. Does this herald the comeback of the jailbreak again or are they tweets in order to prove capabilities and challenge?
Luca Todesco is one of the most famous developers and hackers and previously provided the Yalo jailbreak for iOS 10.2. He had been managing a thing at night since the launch of the first beta of iOS 12. He showed off his talents in the hacking world and launched a tweet confirming that he was able to launch a jailbreak that works on the latest devices. Apple's flagship iPhone XS Max working with iOS 12.
The confirmation comes through a group of tweets that were shared from the official page of hackers Todesco stating that he had finished hacking the iPhone XS Max, and in another tweet he indicated that he was a fan of the iPhone XS Max and described it as the wonderful piece that he used all the time.
Although this is not the first time that hackers have been able to penetrate the latest Apple systems and devices, especially the A12 chip, it is impressive that there are many hackers who have managed to do so. The Pangu team managed to create an iPhone XS jailbreak that you can install on your device now, but the method has unnecessary complications. Security researcher Liang Chen was also able to launch his version of the jailbreak on the first beta of iOS 12 and showed a video of how to install it at that time (about 4 months ago). You can watch the video:
There is no doubt that this is scary for Apple, as how quickly its latest devices are penetrated. The sure thing is that these hackers have no intention of launching this jailbreak to the public soon, as they have not stated that, either from near or from afar. This makes it more like a challenge among developers who are more capable and skilled at providing jailbreak quickly.
