Many messaging apps do link previews insecurely. That’s the conclusion of a pair of well-known infosec researchers this week.
The worst are Facebook’s Messenger and Instagram, plus LINE. Shocking, I know. Also heavily criticized are Discord, LinkedIn, Slack, and Zoom—among others.
In some cases, link previews even break E2EE. Other services actually run untrusted JavaScript on their servers!
I know, right? In this week’s Security Blogwatch, we revert to semaphore and smoke signals.
