Root Droid Razr OTA update without rootkeeper

Mobile security consultant Dan Rosenberg of Vulnfactory.org has developed a direct root method for the new 6.12.173 OTA update to the Droid Razr platform (credit to mattlgroff of DroidRazr.com for posting about this On XDA) Please note that this method is applicable only to Razr CDMA variants.

I haven't tried this exploit yet as I'm holding off on flashing the OTA update until we know more about it, so try it at your own discretion. If you have a more "leap before looking" attitude towards flashing, then make sure you check out his site for more details, or view the thread at XDA-Developers for user feedback.
