[Suggestion] IOS pad Unlock (Hackaday)

[no42]

iOS keyboard exploit allows brute force iPad lock screen attack

If someone with an iPad can test this out? (I dont own one) Previous attempts at using a usb adapter meant we could type into Notes. Be interesting if this can be achieved with the new HID firmware compiled with BOOT mode (thats duck_v2.1.hex).

Thanks

I'm on it... I just need to run down the street to get a USB adapter for my iPad. Give me a day or so and i will post the results.

This works well for the Restrictions code but with the lock screen you would have to have a long delay between each attempt. If you enter 6 wrong passwords it will disable the iPad for 1 minute and then 5 and so on. Eventually you will be locked out of the iPad for good. But the Ducky will enter passwords in.

After reading the "iOS Hacker Handbook" I remember being able to do this with a serial cable and correct pin-out.

Along with the Limera1n bootrom exploit.

If you want to have a look at a program that already exists, check out the "Gecko iPhone Toolkit"

But yes, I would like to see this made for the restrictions access page.
