Is Verizon iPhone on iOS 4.2.6 Susceptible to Limera1n Exploit?

Moments ago, Apple seeded iOS 4.2.6 to public for Verizon�s CDMA iPhone 4 ahead of its launch date, that is February 10th, 2011.


Now the real question is that whether iOS 4.2.6 is vulnerable to Geohot�s Limera1n exploit or not? MuscleNerd of iPhone Dev Team thinks it probably is:
MuscleNerd: 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.
Cause If it isn�t, then Verizon iPhone 4 users wont be able to jailbreak until and unless someone finds another bootrom exploit in the new hardware.
MuscleNerd: @damon_taylor If limera1n is still there, it means at *least* tethered JB on 0-day (and for those who buy early, forever)
We will of course get to know more about this come February 10th. Till then, stay tuned.
