We have already reported that using new userland jailbreak by comex, iPhone Hackers had managed to run Cydia and get root ssh access on iPhone 4.Besides, p0sixninga and GeoHot have new bootrom exploit which can eventually accomplish iPhone 4 jailbreak and iPhone 3GS New bootrom. There is a confusion whether p0sixninja or GeoHot will be the first one to release the exploit. Regarding userland jailbreak as @comex has found it, it is expected to be released a n updated version of Spirit jailbreak.
There is an Gigantic development in this scenario. @planetbeing who was the first person to get root ssh access to iPhone 4 has now found the key to decrypt iPhone 4 bootrom.
Yay, just managed to get this out: SHA1(iphone4-bootrom.bin)= 03203a4ebc24bd2488efdaaa19f0c9589496011f (prolly same as ipad, though)
He further reveals that
Having the iPhone 4 bootrom makes it possible to develop exploits that are immune to firmware upgrades (unlike the Spirit family of jbs)
BOOM! What does this mean? It means that iPhone 4 can be pwned for life until Apple patches the exploit by introducing another bootrom in iPhone 4. If Apple wish to do so, it can normally take them 6 months to one year. Apple can not shut this loop hole through firmware upgardes.
There is another potential in this new that a Hacker who actually owns iPhone 4 has managed to find thi exploit which means speedy development and we will get a tool to accomplish iPhone 4 jailbreak sooner.
Hats Off!
