Now it looks like the fifth beta shows even more signs that Apple is taking steps to foil the efforts of jailbreakers. The first iOS 7.1 beta, along with the following two, passed without incident, but it was always somewhat inevitable that the patching process would eventually begin. It happened and hacker iH8sn0w confirmed on Twitter that iOS 7.1 beta 4 was found to be partially patched. He has once again confirmed on Twitter that iOS 7.1 beta 5 takes things even further, also patching the AFC sandbox escape and chown vulnerability. While iH8sn0w is keeping everyone in the loop, the Evad3rs team are keeping quite, but with a good reason. By sounding off about exploits they may or may not have, or by simply speculating in any way, the chances of any future jailbreak being achieved cold be severely hindered. This is why, as MuscleNerd pointed out, the jailbreak scene rarely passes comment on beta releases. Now we know that iOS 7.1 certainly won't be jailbreakable using Evasi0n as it is, we can still hold out for a fair amount of hope that, in being reserved, the Evad3rs team perhaps has an exploit or two up their sleeves ready to attack iOS 7.1 GM once it has been readied for release. The fifth beta arrived today so it shouldn't be too long before we get an end user release. We will have all the details here as well as the jailbreak status of iOS 7.1 as soon as the information becomes available.
