The news is that 5.18.4 patches that jailbreak, so basically there is currently no known jailbreaking method (neither public nor private) which works on 5.18.4.
I'm sorry to hear that, but Amazon has once again neglected the older generation of Kindle E-Readers...

A correction here, WinterBreak was actually patched in 5.18.1.

I'm sure they'll stop neglecting them right when the new jailbreak you mentioned makes all the older Kindle E-Readers jailbreakable again.
