The latter are the only ones that can be jailbroken (running the ;installHtml command). No OOTB or OTA user fw allows that!! (Even old ones don't...) Then there's only the serial jb method...
Actually, I believe there's a special case for 5.6.5 and it can be jailbroken without needing to change firmware.

I think same goes for even older ones (e.g. https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=186645)
