Apple has already seeded new firmware for Verizon iPhone 4 i.e 4.2.6. Verizon iPhone 4 iOS 4.2.6 is available for download from Apple server, however interesting thing would be in knowing whether it has patched Limera1n bootroom exploit or not. The answer could be YES. According to MuscleNerd, Verizon iPhone 4 running iOS 4.2.6 could be vulnerable with limera1n exploit. In other words, Verizon iPhone 4 with iOS 4.2.6 could be jailbreakable using limera1n exploit. So, if it is vulnerable for sure, then the iPhone Dev Team can pull a tethered jailbreak solution on the same day for Verizon iPhone 4.
MuscleNerd tweets:
Verizon iPhone IPSW is now live! Here are the keys, tell us what you find! http://is.gd/L2ipIA
If the i4 crypto engine couldn’t get those, it would have been bad sign for limera1n. But it did, so there’s still hope.
@damon_taylor If limera1n is still there, it means at *least* tethered JB on 0-day (and for those who buy early, forever)
Added to this, MuscleNerd also provided keys to decrypt all the files in iOS 4.2.6 Firmware IPSW file.
Chances of Verizon iPhone 4 iOS 4.2.6 jailbreak hugely depends on Limera1n exploit (considering SHAtter bootrom is leaked and patched), if its not patched then within weeks we will see jailbreak solution, if is is then iPhone Dev Team will be back to finding new exploit for Verizon iPhone 4.
