Fun story, that TIFF bug was one of mine (CVE-2006-3459), I actually found it in an audit sponsored by Google! The same bug was also used to jailbreak the PSP

Fun story, that TIFF bug was one of mine (CVE-2006-3459), I actually found it in an audit sponsored by Google!
The same bug was also used to jailbreak the PSP and other random devices. For a few years I would occasionally get mail from people thanking me for helping them jailbreak their DVD player or smart appliance.
I've never actually owned an iPhone, I wrote an exploit for Linux/x86, then someone else (cmw) ported it to iPhone and made the jailbreakme website!
