SHAtter Exploit Will Also Jailbreak the New Apple TV

Few hours ago we reported you that Apple has already placed iOS 4.1 for Apple TV on their servers. Now the iPhone dev team has just sent an update to their official blog, announcing that SHAtter exploit which discovered by Pod2g few months ago, is working successfully to decrypt the 2nd-generation Apple TV iOS 4.1 keys.

 

It’s looking like SHAtter is going to be the gift that keeps on giving. Even though the new AppleTV isn’t yet in people’s homes, the firmware is available on Apple’s normal public distribution servers and SHAtter has been used to decrypt its keys! The main filesystem (“Mojave8M89.K66OS”) key for 018-8609-066.dmg is:

MuscleNerd the well-known iDevices hacker, also mentioned that if you are interested in the potential Apple TV jailbreak, so it's better to buy it early before Apple patches the discovered exploits. New jailbreak tools are still being developed. We will of course let you know once they are ready for prime time use. Stay tuned for that! [via Dev-Team]
