WhatsApp's former head of security, Attaullah Baig, has filed a lawsuit against its parent company, Meta, alleging that the social media megalith retaliated against him for reporting security failings that violated legal commitments. The complaint , filed in Northern California District Court, says Baig reported what he believed to be several violations of the US Sarbanes-Oxley Act involving the failure to disclose security issues that represent potential acts of shareholder fraud, plus potential violations of US Securities and Exchange Commission rules about internal information controls. As a result of his reports, Baig claims leaders at WhatsApp unlawfully retaliated against him through inaccurate performance reviews that were filed as a pretext to terminate his employment. Echoing the words of Meta comms boss Andy Stone, WhatsApp VP of communications Carl Woog told The Register in an emailed statement: "Sadly this is a familiar playbook in which a former employee is dismissed for poor performance and then goes public with distorted claims that misrepresent the ongoing hard work of our team. Security is an adversarial space and we pride ourselves in building on our strong record of protecting people’s privacy." That record includes years of security and privacy criticism, a €225 million fine

According to reports, Liverpool internally ‘raised worries’ about Alexander Isak before signing the Newcastle United star on deadline day. Isak secured his dream move to Liverpool on deadline day, with Newcastle United settling on a British record deal worth around £125m for their prized asset. The world-class striker was intent on leaving Newcastle throughout the summer window as he butted heads with Newcastle over alleged “broken promises” and spat his dummy out in pursuit of an exit. Isak ‘s poor conduct worked in his favour as Newcastle opened the door to selling the striker, with Nick Woltemade and Yoana Wissa signed to fill the void. The 25-year-old cemented himself as one of the best strikers in the world last season, scoring 27 goals in 42 appearances across all competitions.

LOS ANGELES: WhatsApp has fixed a vulnerability in its messenger apps for Apple devices, and anyone with the app on an iPhone, iPad or Mac computer is being told to update WhatsApp to the latest version if they have not already done so. WhatsApp believes that a messenger vulnerability (CVE-2025-55177) may have already been exploited in combination with an iOS vulnerability (CVE-2025-43300). Apple has already addressed the iOS security issue by releasing iOS version 18.6.2 on August 20. According to the company, the affected versions include WhatsApp for iOS prior to version 2.25.21.73, WhatsApp Business for iOS prior to version 2.25.21.78 and WhatsApp for Mac prior to version 2.25.21.78. For users unsure whether they have installed the secure iOS version, this can be checked under "Settings/General/Software Update," where updates can also be initiated if necessary. To check which version of WhatsApp is installed on an iPhone or iPad, users can go to "Settings/Help" within the app. If an insecure version is still installed, you can open the App Store, tap on "My Account" or on your profile picture at the top and scroll down to view pending updates and version notes. From there, you can tap "Update" next to WhatsApp

But one day last month that abruptly changed when a call to a colleague did not go through properly. They tried Telegram - another messaging app popular in Russia - but that did not work either. She was one of millions of Russians facing new restrictions imposed in mid-August by Russia's media regulator, Roskomnadzor, on calls made through the two platforms - the country's most popular apps. The timing coincides with the rollout of a new "national messenger" app known as Max and created by a Russian firm closely controlled by the Kremlin. Monthly user numbers of WhatsApp and Telegram are estimated to be 97 and 90 million respectively — in a country of 143 million people.
