If your iOS version is swapped out with one that is backdoored, it won’t boot after you reboot it without using this boot loader exploit on a computer again.
This makes you ever so slightly more vulnerable to an evil maid attack, but we don’t even have a jailbreak yet using this so it’s to be determined how it all shakes out.

- saagarjha 7y agoI believe a reboot will cause you to boot stock iOS again.
