The “Tianfu Cup”, or TFC (International cracking Competition), είναι ο μεγαλύτερος διαγωνισμός hacking της Κίνας. Στοχεύει στη δημιουργία μιας νέας κοινότητας της Κίνας τύπου “Pwn2Own”, γιατί την άνοιξη του 2018, η Κινέζικη κυβέρνηση απαγόρευσε στους ερευνητές ασφάλειας της χώρας να συμμετέχουν σε διαγωνισμούς hacker που διοργανώνονται στο εξωτερικό, όπως το Pwn2Own.
Tianfu Cup 2021, took place on Saturday 16 and today Sunday 17 October. The prize for this year's competition winners was $1,5 million USA.
So this year on October 16, 2021, a team managed to hack Microsoft Exchange Server 2019 in less than 5 minutes. The hack was done through a 0day vulnerability that is not patched with the latest ones updates of Exchange Server (October 2021).
But the stars of the competition were the PangU team that managed to break an iPhone 13 Pro (with iOS 15.x) on the first day.
The team managed to demonstrate a remote jailbreak (remote jailbreak) and received a prize of 320.000 dollars.
On Day 2 of the TFC 2021 competition, an iPhone 13 Pro was hacked within 15 seconds via a remote execution code in the Safari browser by the Kunlun Lab team.
As for you who are waiting for a jailbreak, it is unlikely to be released by the Pangu team to the general public.
But it's important because it proves that Apple's latest platform is not as robust, despite what some security researchers in the community said when they argued that Apple's new operating system would make jailbreaking much more difficult.
