Actually, the Quadroot exploits have been around for quite some time. I just don't have the know-how to make any use of them. edit: Apparently my autocorrect thinks I want to type a racial slur when I type Quadroot.

Selinux disabling requires root, but as far as the cves there are some exploits that can be used that were created of quadrooter exploits.

Only issue is now the pro cannot be systemless rooted because of its bootloader.

So we will have to send a older su file to temp then copy to xbin, at that point we will have root and upload a recovery.

Since I don't have the device I can't try anything so I'll leave that info available for now

Do we have links to the exploits?

If you're on a zte z981 phone get the zonealarm quadroot scanner and it will give you the links.

As getting root on B08 will give us a pathway to rooting B14, my spare 981 can be used. If anyone has any tools, scripts, etc, I'll try any CVE out on it. I don't care about bricks either.
