P0sixninja Launches OpenJailbreak Project

P0sixninja has launched OpenJailbreak, a community where tools are maintained to sustain jailbreaking.

The hacker presented on his plans for OpenJailbreak at WWJC and the http://www.openjailbreak.org website went live yesterday.

What will it contain?
● Open source components from both greenpois0n and absinthe jailbreaks.
● Bug, issue, and feature tracking so even non-developers can contribute.
● Wikis, forums, and documents to help new users learn how to use components.


Why give away all this code?
● There’s simply too much of it to continue managing it on my own.
● Hopefully others will step in and help remove some of the burden off of us.
● Free up a lot of our time and effort of development so we can focus of finding new vulnerabilities and exploits.

There are currently 6 projects posted online, and a dozen others planned.

Projects posted so far:
● libmbdb-1.0 – A library and utilities for modifying backups from iOS devices.
● libmacho-1.0 – A library and utilities for modifying and parsing Apple Mach-O executable files.
