Subject: Re: On the iPhone PDF and kernel exploit

Hi!

I took a look at the PDF some days ago, looking for the PDF vuln, you
can see my post  about it here:

http://eternal-todo.com/blog/jailbreakme-pdf-exploit

Anyway, I continue analysing it...


Cheers!

Nobody likes a null byte flaw on thier server - the only reason I'm disclosing this here right now is because as far as I know it only allows indexing of the jailbreak PDFs which could aid the community in verifying there is nothing malicious going on.
