On: iPad jailbreak after less than 24 hours

[viraptor]

Isn't that the method which was already known on iPhone but not published, exactly because they were waiting for iPad to come out? (so they could use the same method on both)

Yes. And it's userland, meaning you can visit a website in MobileSafari and jailbreak the device, similar to jailbreakme.com back in the day.

does this mean that any website can potentially run code as root on my iPad?

[vluft → milkshakes]

If that's the case then yes, yes it does, so Apple will fix this like they did when that was the case back with the iPhone.

Those were the days...
