g0blin

An almost-finished iOS 10.3.x jailbreak based on Siguza's v0rtex kernel exploit and Luca Todesco's KPP bypass.

For 64-bit devices prior to the iPhone 7 (A7 - A9).

Spawns an SSH server listening on port 2222. Remember to change your passwords!

Please reinstall the bootstrap when upgrading.

DO NOT INSTALL UNOFFICIAL IPAs!

This is my first jailbreak and I have been making mistakes as I learn. Please wait until I make an official release unless you really know what you are doing and don't mind having to restore to iOS 11 if something goes wrong.

known issues

Location services fails after jailbreaking

TouchID fails sometimes after jailbreaking?

Third-party applications that need root priveledges require an extra entitlement to function correctly.

<key>com.apple.private.security.no-container</key>
<true/>

I have already added the entitlement to the copy of Cydia included in g0blin.

For other apps (eg. Filza, MTerminal) to work correctly you will have to entitle them yourself.
