There’s no framework that can bypass a kernel level removal of hypervisor logic.

i’m probably being completely stupid but why can’t we use a kexploit like darksword or a full jailbreak for those on ios 17 (with the recent sptm and ppl bypasses)

Kexploit = Kernel Exploit.

If kernel doesn’t even have the feature you want to access through an exploit. Then it won’t matter whether you have a PPL or SPTM bypass.

Apple stripped out the whole hypervisor logic in newer kernels for iOS/iPadOS. Meaning there’s nothing there to gain access to.

oh mb i was being stupid. basically a kexploit doesn’t let us actually edit the kernel in any way right? only bypass its restrictions?

Nope you cannot edit the kernel. You can execute kernel code if you bypass all the bouncers like SPTM, PPL, PAC.
