*October 12 -- [[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.)
  
−
*October 10 -- Following the first [[limera1n]] beta release, [[User:geohot|geohot]] released multiple versions, each fixing bugs affecting previous releases.

[[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.
