The 6.1.3 update, which was seeded to developers as a beta one week ago, will break the functionality of the jailbreaking tool known as \u201cevasi0n,\u201d meaning its creators will have to find a new way around or through the OS.<br \/>\n6.1.3 will already be an important security update, as it purports to fix a zombie passcode bypass bug that cropped up in iOS 6.1. When 6.1.3 is pushed out, phones with that version installed will be unable to use the evasi0n jailbreak, which had relieved almost 7 million phones of Apple\u2019s pesky walled-garden strictures since early February in only three weeks of availability.<br \/>\nWhile that\u2019s a lot of reach for a jailbreak in such a short time, three weeks is actually a long time for Apple to leave a jailbreak exploit open: MacRumors points out that Apple shut down Jailbreakme 3.0 for the iPhone 4 after only nine days.<br \/>\nForbes reported that one of evasi0n\u2019s handlers, David Wang, said it might be a month or more before Apple releases 6.1.3 to the general public. Wang noted to Forbes that if Apple manages to patch most of the bugs used for the jailbreaking tool, evasi0n would be \u201cstarting from scratch.\u201d<br \/>\nvia <a href=\"http:\/\/arstechnica.com\/apple\/2013\/02\/apple-will-give-popular-jailbreak-tool-the-banhammer-with-next-ios-update\/\" target=\"_blank\">Apple will give popular jailbreak tool the banhammer with next iOS update | Ars Technica<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple\u2019s next minor point iOS update will fix the exploits that allow iPhones to be jailbroken with a very popular [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[2,3,9],"tags":[549,582],"class_list":["post-1190","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-apple","category-hardware","category-software","tag-ios","tag-jailbreak"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/papNkV-jc","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":7085,"url":"https:\/\/nccomputertech.com\/techtalk\/2014\/12\/12\/apple-ios-8-1-2-fixes-an-issue-with-disappearing-ringtones\/","url_meta":{"origin":1190,"position":0},"title":"Apple iOS 8.1.2 fixes an issue with disappearing ringtones","author":"NCCT","date":"December 12, 2014","format":false,"excerpt":"Apple\u2019s fifth patch for iOS 8 is now live. iOS 8.1.2 is said to address an issue in which ringtones purchased through iTunes were unexpectedly disappearing from devices.
