One of the key benefits of the KFD jailbreak exploit is that it supports A12+ devices too.

How does KFD Exploit work for Jailbreak?

KFD is a project that allows you to read and write to kernel memory on Apple devices. This is done by exploiting two vulnerabilities that can be used to obtain dangling PTEs (Page Table Entries). Dangling PTEs are entries in the page table that point to invalid memory addresses. By exploiting these vulnerabilities, KFD can gain access to kernel memory and modify it as desired.

KFD is the first Read/Write kernel exploit to be publicly released for iOS 16, and it is incredibly powerful. It could be used to create a jailbreak that supports iOS 15.5 all the way up to iOS 16.6 Beta 1 on all modern devices, including the iPhone 14 Pro.

Of course, there are still some challenges that need to be overcome before a jailbreak can be released. For example, a PPL bypass is still needed for A12+ devices. However, the KFD exploit is a major step forward, and it is likely that a jailbreak will be released for iOS 16 in the near future.

According to the latest sources, the KFD exploit's jailbreak progress is at about 41% yet, however, it's making progress. Hence, it's worthwhile to keep hopes up for a fully-functional jailbreak in the near future.
