Fans who have been waiting for a new jailbreak for iOS will be delighted to know that there's a possibility that a jailbreak for iOS 10.3.1 could come out next week. The new jailbreak is also said to be compatible with 64-bit iOS, which means the latest devices are supported.

According to a report from ValueWalk, reports came in that the Chinese hacker group Team Pangu could release a jailbreak tool for iOS 10.3.1 as early as next week. A member of the team was recently filmed demonstrating the jailbreak tool on an iPhone 7 during a tech conference in Shanghai.

That demonstration had people thinking that Pangu is already close to releasing the new jailbreak tool to the public. The report said that it will be the first jailbreak tool for the iOS 10.3.1 to be available to the public.

The video of the conference was posted on microblogging site Weibo and it showed a member of Pangu presenting the vulnerability of the iOS 10.3.1. Forbes reports that the jailbreak will be compatible with 64-bit iOS devices.

Which means the jailbreak tool will work on the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. Even older device such as the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6s, and iPhone 6s Plus will also be able to use the iOS 10.3.1 jailbreak.

The report said that there's no evidence yet that the jailbreak tool will be fully untethered. This means that people won't need to re-jailbreak their device if they restart it. Pangu's last tool was semi-untethered and it required people to run the jailbreak app again to access their tweaks whenever their device restarts.

As for the tool becoming available in public, ValueWalk said that reports should be taken with a grain of salt. Pangu has yet to release a major tool publicly since Pangu9.

The video demonstration about the vulnerabilities of the iOS 10.3.1 could just be part of the team's security research project. Until an official comment or announcement from Team Pangu comes, it's hard to be certain at this point.

Hopefully, Pangu does come out with an iOS 10.3.1 jailbreak tool. Check out the demonstration video below.
