Hacker P0sixninja to Release Something Bigger Than a Jailbreak

Well known iPhone hacker p0sixninja has teased the upcoming release of some ‘amazing things’ on Twitter that are bigger than a jailbreak.

Last night he tweeted:

I got a lot of amazing things coming to you all soon. think bigger than jailbreak 😉

In March, p0sixninja revealed that he had found the exploits necessary to release a new jailbreak; however, as expected, he decided to hold those back for iOS 7 or iOS 7.1.

His new announcement hints at something better than a jailbreak which suggests that perhaps he has found a bootrom exploit. The last bootrom exploit was limera1n found by Geohot which supported the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 4G, iPod Touch 3G, and iPad. The exploit made those devices permanently vulnerable to a tethered jailbreak.
