iOS 6.1.3 Untethered Jailbreak on iPad Mini Demoed By i0n1c

iOS 6.1.3 Jailbreak is one of the most hottest and demanded thing among the iOS users. Apple has recently released iOS 6.1.3 with a security patch to jailbreak loopholes, and sends out many users away from the Cydia and Jailbreak tweaks. iPhone Jailbreak developers seems to be pretty busy in working on different security holes instead of burning their already discovered security whole on iOS 6.1.3. It was reported several times that developers have already got access to enough security holes that allow them to release iOS 6.1.3 Untethred Jailbreak for iPhone / iPad users. But it seems the developers decided to avoid iOS 6.1.3 Untethered Jailbreak, and focuses on the upcoming iOS 7 Jailbreak.

The decision by iPhone Jailbreak developers left iOS 6.1.3 users in dark, and opened a door for any other security expert to come and rescue the users on iOS 6.1.3. But it appears that no one is interested in burning his exploits on iOS 6.1.3 Untethered Jailbreak. The A4 Devices has already got their traditional iOS 6.1.3 tethered jailbreak, but the A5+ devices are still in the dark with iOS 6.1.3. However, it appears that someone in the iPhone Jailbreak developer’s team is finally working on the iOS 6.1.3 Untethered Jailbreak, and demoing it publicly among the other security experts to get reviews of his work.

I demoed a vuln in enterprise distribution that says Apple installs a jailbreak on your device and then really jailbreaks iPad mini at 6.1.3
