General Did iOS 9 Kill Hacking?

[Guest]

Here is why I think iOS 9 killed hacking/made it extremely difficult:

 

- App store apps only download the arch for your device. That means most hackers will have to learn arm64.

 

- Because of the above, said hackers might not be able to hack for 32 bit devices.

 

- GDB/LLDB do not work with arm64 binaries, so that will make the hacking process way more time consuming. No watchpoints or breakpoints.

 

- ASLR can't be removed on arm64.

 

- For some reason apps crash when hacks are installed on iOS 9.

 

Was it this bad when iOS 8 was first released

It did not kill it but it sure as hell made it harder.

 

iOS 10 might though.

I've been learning about the arm64 binaries since last week. It's so stupidly hard

No

You should also mention that no cracking script works on iOS 9. I'm not even sure how it will since the new app slicing.

App Cracking never fully recovered since iOS 8 broke it... Clutch is not doing so good lately. Hopes up high for Rasticrac.
