i just noticed something looking at the CodeResources in the _Codesign folder and look at an app from an ipsw [http://pastebin.com/6C55pTxf] and an appstore app [http://pastebin.com/E1aSybSJ] both [[sandbox]] and this where introduced in [[firmware]] 2.x --[[User:Liamchat|liamchat]] 18:44, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

This has to be one of the most puzzling exploits in iOS. Since it was revealed in 3.1.3/3.2, Apple has yet to close it in 4.0, 4.02, or 4.1 or even 4.2 betas.

Somehow, once you stick a dynamic library or other goody with some sort of "incomplete codesign" magic in the right location and add a startup service, iOS will execute it. Perhaps Apple has no way to fix this without breaking other things? Iemit737 00:23, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

AFAIK IncompleteCodesignExploit is an exploit in WWDR Cert Checking that allows ppl to create fake entitlements. Obviously I'm not sure it works in this way. --Qwertyoruiop 00:41, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
