One thing I wonder is: how could this happen at all? Considering the E2E Encryption in place, I would expect the incorrect recipient simply wouldn't be able to decode the image considering they never have exchanged keys with the sender?
- runarberg 5y agoNot a signal developer, but I would imagine it would be fairly simple that the same bug also encrypted the message with the eventual receiver’s key (as opposed to the intended receiver’s key). Resulting in a message which the eventual receiver could decrypt but not the intended receiver.
