Your WhatsApp could be hacked just for answering a call

WhatsApp also does not get rid of the vulnerabilities in this latest list of security flaws that have arrived both to Facebook and Google+, without forgetting others already common like Yahoo! Be that as it may, privacy is increasingly compromised because our data is easy to sell and there are still many companies eager for it. However, in theory you should not worry because this vulnerability has been resolved, it will be up to you to be affected or not.

Let's take a look at this new threat, your data can be compromised by a WhatsApp failure just by taking a call. 

The truth does not surprise us too much, especially considering that today WhatsApp is owned by Facebook Inc. and that its former owner and creator says he does not sleep well at night because he has sold the privacy of his users to Facebook. But theories aside, this vulnerability was discovered and reported to the WhatsApp development team during the month of August and in theory it is resolved in its latest update, the question now is to know how many users are updated to the latest. Now it's time to go to the iOS App Store and see what state we have it in, do it for your safety.

The reality is that I always recommend keeping all applications updated, in general the applications tend to improve (although sometimes they get worse), and above all they correct many security errors that we are not normally aware of, like this one that we have heard about months later. A safety engineer from the team of Google Project Zero has been in charge of discovering this hole, her name is Natalie Silvanovich and her discovery has saved hundreds of millions of terminals. Definitely, It seems that we no longer have anything to fear about it, keep chatting, nothing has happened here.
