The kindle browser is using a very old webkit. Perhaps there is a known exploit that works? It runs as root, so even reading or writing a local file should be enough:

This is not an easy option, but the iMX50x SoCs have two external boot mode signals that control the boot process, allowing for download and execution a program from the USB port. This will allow you to run a non crippled uboot.
