Quick Share:
A new iOS 4 update has been rolled out by Apple and it goes by the name iOS 4.0.2. First thing first, all jailbroken iPhone and iPod Touch owners are advised to stay away from the latest iOS 4 update or face the consequences of losing the jailbreak ability of your iDevice.
In reference to an image file shared by chpwn, the latest iOS update brings nothing notable except for the PDF viewing vulnerability, the very same vulnerabilty used by JailBreakMe 2.0 to jailbreak iPhone 4 and other iDevices. So here you have it iOS 4.0.2 is no go land for the jailbreak
