New ‘jailbreak’ tool to unlock iPhone released by hackers

San Francisco: An iPhone hacking team has released a new “jailbreak” tool that allows even the users of the latest version of iOS to install any software they want.

Apple prohibits users from using unauthorised apps and customisations through its “walled garden” approach to iPhones.

But hackers work hard to build these jailbreak tools to breach those restrictions by exploiting previously undisclosed vulnerability in iOS.
