CoolStar has shared a progress update on the upcoming 'Cheyote' jailbreak of iOS 15. Based on the task list below, it appears the jailbreak is nearly complete.
iOS 15.0 - 15.1.1 A11 - A14 jailbreak progress: ✅ breaking out of sandbox ✅ getting root ✅ getting read/write access to filesystem (except rootfs) ✅ break AMFI / codesign ✅ run shell commands - bugs identified: fork() broken on A12+ ✅ fix fork() on A12+ - bugs identified: dyld hook ✅ get OpenSSH running ✅ get legacy (Odyssey) launchd injection working ✅ add USB Ethernet debug support ⌛ fix dyld hook ✅ get userspace reboot working ✅ get Cheyote recovery working ✅ get system services started properly after userspace reboot - bugs identified: requires manual intervention where a command must be run in Cheyote recovery first ⌛ fix userspace reboot bug so manual intervention isn't needed ✅ put a bounty out for an iOS 15 tweak to install ✅ run tweak in SpringBoard ⌛ make sure injection works in app store apps
In a followup post this morning, CoolStar notes that "safe mode still works".
