Wait, what?

Remove the Bullseye from your newly Jailbroken iDevice

, , ,

Just jailbroke your fancy new iDevice, but worried about security holes? You should be. There was a service installed called OpenSSH (it’s not malware, promise) that allows remote connections, incase your device poops, you can remote in and fix the problem. The issue with this, is the default password was not changed. Don’t worry, it’s really easy to change the password. You can go about this two ways, remote into your phone via your computer, or get a terminal app for your device.

Whichever route you decide to go, the default username is mobile with the password alpine. Then run the following commands from the terminal window.

su
passwd root
passwd mobile
