The released iOS 4.3.4 update aimed for the iPhone 4 (GSM), iPhone 3GS, iPad 2, iPad 1 and iPod Touch 3rd and 4th generation. This update means that crackers won’t be able to use the PDF exploit vulnerability to endangering iOS device's data. Also, the worst thing for iPhone jailbreaker, is that they can't perform jailbreak to the iOS's devices anymore by using PDF hole vulnerability (by Comex at jailbreakme.com).
There were no noticeable changes in the newly device's iOS, only just that the iDevices are no longer have PDF hole vulnerability. If you still want to maintain the jailbroken state of your iPhone or other Apple device, don't upgrade your device's iOS to this iOS 4.3.4 version, or you will lose your untethered jailbreak.
Actually, on the jailbroken device, the protection to the PDF hole has been successfully obtained if you was install PDF Patcher 2. So, jailbreak owner, you don't need this Apple's update. This upgrade is just aimed to the ordinary non-jailbreak iPhone users, to give standard protection for their device from PDF exploit vulnerability.
iOS firmware 4.3.4 update is available via iTunes for device with iOS 3.0 through iOS 4.3.3.
