Controversy

On Reddit, where planetbeing and saurik discussed unthredera1n, saurik said:

The program is custom; it is using the Rocky Racoon packet filter kernel exploit, but the evasi0n amfid bypass. I verified this somewhat by glancing at the binary (opens /dev/pf, etc.), but they also say this explicitly in some strings inside of the binary (which might be output when it runs or something) and in a hidden readme file. From .REAL_USAGE:

Thanks to @Chronic-Dev/@planetbeing/@posixninja for the original rocky-raccon pf kernel exploit. Thanks to @evad3rs for their awesome MobileBackup2 stuff. It worked really well on this.

From jb binary:

WE R NOT #FAKR, UNTHREADEDJB IS REEL tanks 2 @planetbeing n @posixninja n @chronicdev for #explot code in rkcy raccon :) :) :) krnl patchs from #opensn0w ))
