thanks for sharing this

I'm trying to get up to speed on kindle jailbreaking so I can (hopefully) contribute in the future. Do you have a writeup on the exploit being used here? From the exploit code I'm assuming it has something to do with dictionary parsing.

digging a bit more seems like it exploited `system()` call in `langpicker.so.1.0:module_langpicker_utilDeleteExt raDictionaries()`

Is this it?

Ok confirmed what I had seen (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=356766)

Sorry for the multiple messages; I'm new to the forum and I can't see a way to edit/update a previous message.

Thanks for making and sharing this jailbreak.
