WARNING: Try this at your own risk.

With the WWDC 2012 right around the corner it is no doubt that one of the things Apple is planning to unveil is the iOS 6 firmware. In fact, iOS 6 has actually been confirmed due to banners being hung at the Moscone Center in San Francisco.

Like all new firmware generations Apple always ships out a beta version for developers to get their applications fully functional before releasing it to the public. This beta period is also a time to iron out any bugs and stability issues.

Recently MacRumors has reported that thanks to a Chinese forum, links to download the iOS 6 beta firmware have been discovered. At this time these links are not fully functional, but they include iOS 6 beta build 10A5316k for various iOS devices and also a developer preview for Safari 6. Obviously there is no telling whether these are going to be the actual download links for iOS 6 Beta Build 10A5316k or Safari 6 developer preview, but these links are definitely unique and were not just made up:

The accuracy of the claim can not be confirmed given that the links are not yet pointing to the files, but clicking on the links does take users to an error page stating “Your session has expired.” Altering the URLs to reference a different build number or making other changes yields an “Access denied” error message, suggesting that there is indeed something unique about the leaked URLs.
