Not sure if this will be of interest to anyone else but if you happen to
have bought a brand new Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet for £99.99 during the
Prime sale (bargain!) or have one lying around anyway, then good news!
Even the very latest less-than-one-month-old Fire OS 5.6.2.0 is *still*
vulnerable to DirtyCOW so it's trivial to root with a Linux box + ADB.
This means that the intentionally crippled Fire tablets are a really
viable and stupidly cheap multipurpose device as long as you don't mind
uncrippling them.
I can post detailed steps if anyone wants.
Cheers
