* 12 October -- [[Chronic Dev (team)|Chronic Dev Team]] releases [[Greenpois0n (jailbreak)|greenpois0n]] after switching its exploit from [[SHA-1 Image Segment Overflow|SHAtter]] to [[limera1n]], in the hope that [[SHA-1 Image Segment Overflow|SHAtter]] remains for 5th generation devices. (The exploit [[limera1n]] uses was fixed in the [[iBoot (Bootloader)|iBoot]] revision found in [[iOS]] 4.2 beta 2, which means Apple knows about the vulnerability and the next [[bootrom]] revision may have it patched.)
* 10 October -- Following the first [[limera1n]] beta release, [[User:geohot|geohot]] released multiple versions, each fixing bugs affecting previous releases. [[Chronic Dev (team)|Chronic Dev Team]] officialy anounces that, in order to keep [[SHA-1 Image Segment Overflow|SHAtter]] undisclosed and possibly preserve it for 5th generation devices, [[Greenpois0n (jailbreak)|greenpois0n]] would be delayed in order to incorporate this new exploit [[limera1n]] uses.
* 9 October -- In order to push [[Chronic Dev (team)|Chronic Dev Team]] to change the exploit used on [[Greenpois0n (jailbreak)|greenpois0n]], [[User:geohot|geohot]] rushed out a beta version of [[limera1n]].
* 8 October -- [[User:Geohot|Geohot]] comes back to the scene with a new [[bootrom]] exploit believed to work on all devices, as shown on the resurrected [http://www.limera1n.com limera1n web site]. He prompts [[Chronic_Dev_(team)|Chronic Dev Team]] to use his exploit instead of [[SHA-1 Image Segment Overflow|SHAtter]], but, since [[Greenpois0n (jailbreak)|greenpois0n]] is already scheduled to October 10, it may be not possible. [[User:Geohot|Geohot]] ETA'd his [[limera1n]] release to October 11, if [[Greenpois0n (jailbreak)|greenpois0n]] can't be changed to use this new exploit. This decision, however, would burn 2 [[bootrom]] exploits: [[SHA-1 Image Segment Overflow|SHAtter]] itself and the one used by [[limera1n]], which is unpatchable by firmware updates.
* 6 October -- Chronic Dev Team issues expected ETA of [[Greenpois0n (jailbreak)|greenpois0n]] as October 10, featuring the new [[SHA-1 Image Segment Overflow|SHAtter]] exploit for devices with the [[S5L8930]].
