WhatsApp flaws bypass app security
WhatsApp was launched in August 2009 and is currently the most used application on the planet. This is largely due to its versatility, which satisfies almost all the needs and the “security” one would imagine having in this application.
Among the many functions in this application for Android and iOS users, there is an option to block contacts, which ensures privacy for the user, as it prevents the blocked contact from accessing their messages and status. However, a way has been discovered to circumvent this ban, using WhatsApp GB, and there is still no solution to this flaw.
1. What is WhatsApp GB?
WhatsApp GB is an improved version of the original WhatsApp platform, more precisely an unofficial pirate clone, created by unknown developers using the real WhatsApp protocol. And to be able to download this version you need to have an account on the real app.
This pirated version has gained fans due to its constant updates, especially the ability to access the status of those who have blocked you. However, since you do not know the origin of this application, it poses a risk to the security of your data, and the user using it can be blocked by the real WhatsApp.
2. Differences between official WhatsApp and GB WhatsApp
One of the main differences between the two applications is the sophisticated encryption. This tool is used to secure messages once the conversation has started. Messages are stored on your mobile phone, without being shared with advertisers, and you can control your privacy using the settings provided by the app.
The unofficial pirated WhatsApp offers different features than the original version and cannot be downloaded from Play Store, Google App Store does not accept platforms that try to impersonate others.
This bug in the app, which has already been revealed on several news sites, is still so far without permission from Meta, the company that owns WhatsApp.
