Revision as of 06:24, 9 August 2017
Phœnix is a semi-untethered jailbreak for 32-bit devices, primarily intended for devices running iOS 9.3.5. It was written by tihmstar and S1guza (assisted by Max Bazaliy, Luca Todesco and jk9357). Like its predecessor, Home Depot, Phœnix works by sideloading an IPA using Cydia Impactor. Released on 7 August, 2017, almost a year after the release of iOS 9.3.5, it brought a long-awaited jailbreaking solution to devices for which iOS 9.3.5 is the only signed version. Phœnix exploits the fact that Apple never properly fixed the vulnerabilities exploited by Home Depot (Pegasus). It is not yet known if it is compatible with iOS 8.4.1, but the IPA can be installed on iOS 8.4.1 and higher.

Controversy
The release of Phœnix was not uncontroversial and sparked a conflict between the developers and Stefan Esser (i0n1c). Esser had started a crowdfunding campaign through Kickstarter for an online iOS 9.3.5 jailbreaking course and felt betrayed by tihmstar, accusing him of backstabbing. tihmstar denied receiving help from Esser, and Luca Todesco noted that the jailbreak was announced before Esser's campaign. While Home Depot contains code written by Stefan Esser used "without his consent" according to its credits, Phœnix features another joke at Esser's expense, as the "Enable jailbreak" button from Home Depot has been renamed "Kickstart jailbreak."
