If the kernel bug that Ian Beer just shared gets turned into a tfp0 exploit, unc0ver will probably get iOS 13 support!

Due to this, these devices rely on app-based jailbreaks, like unc0ver and Electra, which make use of kernel exploits and have been the norm ever since 2016 (iOS 9.2/9.3). Moving over to newer versions of iOS, some exciting news has just dropped for those with A12/A13 devices running iOS 13 since the checkra1n jailbreak doesn’t support these devices. Kernel Bug affecting iOS 13.2.2 and lower that can potentially result in a jailbreak shared by Ian Beer of Project Zero You may learn more about EtasonATV by following this link which also contains installation instructions.

After that, you can install a DEB file via SSH which gives you an untethered jailbreak ( you needn’t apply it every reboot) for your device! For those asking why you should jailbreak an Apple TV, the main reason right now is the ability to install Kodi/ XBMC (installation instructions). Installing this jailbreak is a little different than traditional jailbreaks as it requires you to set a custom DNS address, add a profile and then open the Trailers app in order to jailbreak your device.

Now, that has finally changed as tihmstar, who’s behind jailbreaking iOS 8.4.1 and 9.3.5/6 with Siguza et al among other contributions, has released EtasonATV which is capable of jailbreaking Apple TV Firmware 7.4 (12H876 based on iOS 8.4.3) on the AppleTV3,2 with support for AppleTV3,1 units coming when someone steps in to help him with some minor things. However, the Apple TV 3rd generation didn’t see any love and was left without a jailbreak partially because finding an entry point on the Apple TV firmware is more difficult than on iOS and because of the aforementioned lack of interest. The 3rd generation Apple TV is finally jailbroken thanks to tihmstar’s efforts!
