Yesterday, Apple released iOS 7.0.3, which included a number of bug fixes and improvements.
Immediately after the iOS 7.0.3 software update was released, MuscleNerd had warned jailbreakers to avoid upgrading to iOS 7.0.3 as they were yet to analyze the changes to confirm whether it was safe to upgrade.
The golden rule of jailbreaking is to avoid updating to the latest version to improve your chances of jailbreaking your iOS device.
This time is no different, however if you’ve updated to iOS 7.0, iOS 7.0.1 or iOS 7.0.2 then MuscleNerd, member of the evad3rs has now confirmed that it is safe to update to iOS 7.0.3 as it does not impact the iOS 7 jailbreak that is currently in development.
7.0.3's lock screen fixes won't impact the JB (unless Apple's holding back here, hah! http://t.co/wI7A4BHZk2 )

@iphonesteven If you've already lost the JB by upgrading to 7.x, then yep it's fine to go from 7.0.x to 7.0.3.

If you’re on iOS 6.x.x or lower than you should still AVOID upgrading to iOS 7.0.3, just the way you avoided upgrading to iOS 7.0 when it was released last month.
With jailbreaks for both iOS 7.x.x and iOS 6.1.3/6.1.4 in the works, it remains to be seen which one will be released first.
Check out this post for the latest status update on iOS 7 jailbreak.
