Interesting that this post references the CIA Wikileaks publication, but does not explicitly say that the exploit was found via those leaks. It would be very big news if that were the case. Major news outlets such as the New York Times[0] have slammed Wikileaks for using "misleading" language to describe the leaks, specifically in reference to WhatsApp. I hope the author will clarify how they came across this exploit. From the NYT article: > In their haste to post articles about the release, almost all the leading news organizations took the WikiLeaks tweets at face value. Their initial accounts mentioned Signal, WhatsApp and other encrypted apps by name, and described them as “bypassed” or otherwise compromised by the C.I.A.’s cyberspying tools. > Yet on closer inspection, this turned out to be misleading. Neither Signal nor WhatsApp, for example, appears by name in any of the alleged C.I.A. files in the cache.
