Now that pod2g has finished his first app, he is ready to return to the hacking scene. His return alone is great news, since it seems like he’s been gone from the community forever. But to add to the excitement, the hacker just announced that he and planetbeing recently discovered two new vulnerabilities…

Here’s planetbeing’s tweet regarding the hacking session:

planetbeing @planetbeing
Made some nice progress today with @pod2g. I think I'll try to reward myself with a nap.
about 13 hours ago

And here’s pod2g’s response:
pod2g@pod2g
. @planetbeing oh yeah! 2 new vulnerabilities in a day, chance was with us. But we still miss that initial code execution for a public jb :/

This is great news, obviously, as iOS 6 has thus far proven to be a tough nut to crack for hackers. In fact, back in December Mark Dowd said that Apple has practically overhauled security in the latest version of its mobile firmware.

Don’t get too excite yet though, as pod2g notes that they still have a ways to go. Even after they’ve completed the jailbreak, they’ll still have to test it across all devices, and build and test the desktop software, to ensure that it’s stable.
