darksword-kexploit

This is the DarkSword kernel exploit reimplemented in clean Objective-C. It targets iOS 15.0 through 26.0.1 and provides arbitrary kernel read/write, the foundation for jailbreaks, security research, and vulnerability analysis.

The original DarkSword exploit chain was used by commercial surveillance vendors targeting multiple countries before being leaked publicly. This reimplementation by opa334 (a well-known jailbreak developer) makes it accessible to researchers in clean, readable code rather than the obfuscated original.

No license specified.

The catch: this is a kernel exploit. The security implications are real. Apple has patched this in newer iOS versions, so it only affects devices that haven't updated. Using this for anything other than security research or personal device modification puts you in legal and ethical gray areas. No license means no explicit permission to use or modify. And if you're not already deep in iOS internals, the code won't teach you much without significant background knowledge.
