iPod Touch Hacked Thanks to Safari Vulnerability

Wednesday, October 17th, 2007

The iPod Touch has officially been cracked to allow third party applications to be installed. This is something Apple definitely did NOT want. The main part of the process is a TIFF exploit found in Safari. When the browser is pointed towards http://jailbreak.toc2rta.com (full instructions may be found here), Safari crashes and the door is open to begin the iTouch “Jailbreak” hack. This is NOT the first security vulnerability found in Safari.
