Along with these, Apple has patched some security flaws in iOS 9.1, owing credits to the Pangu team for discovering them. The document describing the security contents of iOS 9.1 mentions two vulnerabilities used by Pangu jailbreak. Here are the vulnerabilities:

Needless to say, those who are running an untethered version of jailbreak, recently introduced by Pangu, should avoid updating to iOS 9.1, as there is no jailbreak for this version. In case you have accidentally installed the new software, you might consider a downgrade to iOS 9.0.2 before Apple closes the signing window for this firmware.
