The iOS 11.4 Jailbreak Tool
The 55-second video titled “ios 11.4 jailbreak” came from Richard Zhu which featured a jailbroken device running in iOS 11.4 and was posted on June 12, 2018. Zhu is the 2018 Pwn2Own champion where he found serious vulnerabilities in Microsoft Edge and Firefox which earned him a reward of $120,000.
The video starts off by showing the device running the latest firmware with iOS 11.4 already instead. Zhu then opens Cydia but it’s met with errors. After that, he opens the Terminal app on the device and enters in a few commands to show to the viewers that the device has root access due to the payload within the jailbreak.

As for whether iOS 11.4 jailbreak tool will be released, Zhu hasn’t made any announcement of it yet which caused another debate in the comment section. One Chinese Twitter user warned people to never trust and expect from Chinese hackers because they are all driven for the commercial benefit either it’s from big companies such as Apple or from the black market so there won’t be a public jailbreak release. Another user warned people to not get into the hype unless Zhu announced that it will be released.
However, there were also people that praised Zhu for the video. One person commented said that if Zhu will release it then he will immediately ditch 11.3.1 and upgrade to iOS 11.4. Another person even suggested that he should team up with CoolStar.
So do you think iOS 11.4 Jailbreak Tool will be released? What about its authenticity? We would like to hear from you in the comment section below.
