LIPC access is privileged and leads to code execution - so you have a jailbreak scenario.

The standard WAF API's are gray, but if you have access to `dev` (which I think store does), you also have something that's a problem.

How does dev access cause a problem?
Also, LIPC cannot at the moment lead to code execution... if you could provide some more details on this it could perhaps lead to some interesting developments for mesquito...

Tho, store lipc access is quite limited...

I saw you posted Mesquito onto Github. Do you think it's possible to make a Jailbreak out of this vulnerability?

I just can't believe amazon added a 'stay here' foot menu that stays at the bottom of your screen forever which is super annoying in firmware 5.15

Hope to be able to jailbreak my kindle soon!

Hi, how would you edit the kindle store HTML? My kindle had just missed the chance for jailbreak and I would love to have apps running.

If you've missed the jailbreak, you are out of luck until a new jailbreak can be found if it can be found. How long that will take, is unknown.
