👾 Vulnerability in Telegram // A Google engineer has discovered an issue in the Telegram app for macOS → that could potentially give an attacker access to the computer's camera and microphone. @durovs_code
‼️ No risk by default

A Telegram representative exclusively confirmed to our colleagues at @d_code that the alleged vulnerability in question 'does not put users at risk by default'. In order for the situation described by the researcher to occur, malware must have been installed on the user's system.

"This situation has more to do with Apple's permission security than it does with Telegram and can potentially affect any macOS app as a result. The real issue is that it seems to be possible to bypass Apple’s sandbox restrictions that were created specifically to prevent such abuse of third-party apps," said the representative.

"Still, Telegram has made the changes it could do on its side – and the update is available in the App Store. Those who use the app downloaded from our site were never at risk at all," added the messenger representative.
