The jailbreaking community has been recently seeing massive changes because of the release of checkm8 bootroom exploit. We have very limited information about the jailbreaking tool right now. But, it appears that if the reports are accurate, Luca Todesco might launch the new checkra1n jailbreak tool for iPhone during the POC2019.
The upcoming checkra1n jailbreaking tool is based on the bootrom exploit discovered by security researcher axi0mX. This is also known as checkm8 which made headlines a few weeks back for its capability to exploit iPhones for models ranging between iPhone 4s and iPhone X. Theoretically, reports claim that the exploit could not be fixed by Apple and could run on almost all iPhones and iPads running from A5 up to A12 processor.
On Twitter, a user named Vangelis, who claims to be one of the organizers of POC, shared through a tweet that the chekra1n otherwise known as iOS 13.2 jailbreaking tool might be released at the POC 2019. The Power of Community event will happen from November 7 until November 8, which could also be the same date where we will see the checkra1n. During the event, Luca Todesco will be talking on the topic titled "The One Weird Trick SecureROM Hates," which is about checkm8 and checkra1n iOS 13.2 jailbreaking tool.
One of @qwertyoruiopz’s plans in #POC2019(Nov. 7~8) is to release a forever jailbreak. I hope his plan will go well.https://t.co/m13YzLMgts — vangelis (@vangelis_at_POC) November 2, 2019
The iOS 13.2 jailbreak, unfortunately, does not support the latest iPhone and iPad models. In one of his previous tweets, developer qwertyoruiopz revealed a jailbroken Apple iPod running on iOS 13.2. While the tweet about the release window gives us the possible release date, it only reveals that it is what the developer has planned but it does not directly confirm that the iOS 13.2 jailbreaking tool is officially arriving at around that date.

Recently, the jailbreaking community is experiencing resurgence because of the discovery of checkm8. Despite the security patches that Apple has been doing, it appears that security researchers have always discovered loopholes and weaknesses on the iOS that they can exploit to create an iOS jailbreaking tool. Meanwhile, Apple recently released emergency security patches to all Apple devices.
The latest move from the Cupertino-based tech giant came after it released the latest build on iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, macOS Catalina, and tvOS. Since the release of iOS 13, Apple has been continuously releasing updates and patches to make sure that issues brought along by the latest iOS build will be fixed as soon as possible.
