Dubbed "unc0ver 3.5.0," the jailbreak works with the updated iPhones, iPads and iPod Touches by leveraging a vulnerability that Apple previously patched in iOS 12.3 but accidentally reintroduced in the latest iOS version 12.4.
An anonymous researcher who goes by the online alias "Pwn20wnd" has released a free jailbreak for iOS 12.4 on GitHub that exploits a use-after-free vulnerability in iOS kernel responsibly reported to Apple earlier this year by Ned Williamson, a researcher working with Google Project Zero.
The vulnerability, tracked as CVE-2019-8605, allows an application to execute arbitrary code with system privileges on a target Apple device, which can not only be used to jailbreak them but also leaves users vulnerable to hackers.
