According to the magazine Tel-Quel, a Moroccan student by name Ahmed Lekssays, an 1X engineering year student at Al Akhawayn University, discovered a flaw in the WhatsApp that lets you collect all contacts and content from the conversations of those who use the application on iPhones (and then Android breathes relief).
The student got access to this data using an iPhone and a computer with an operating system Linux, and says they had access to information even on locked devices.
This gap was identified a month ago, in a intrusion test (Pen Test, for the most close) in the application, however it has already been reported to the company.
The first time Lekssays performed this feat was on Twitter and again on iPhones that used the app. Everything was properly addressed and the problem solved.
Are Android users free from this glitch?
