Someone who discovers/developers a remote Jailbreak like this can apparently sell it for a cool half-million.

For iOS, $500k was quoted in HN-featured media recently. However, $750k was quoted on HN in response to a query perhaps two years ago.
The same company I linked above issued a $1 million bounty for an iOS remote jailbreak vuln late last year (for a maximum of 3 different winners).

By the time the bounty expired only 1 team had won.

So pricing has some fluidity, but you're looking at at least 500k.
