Wadukuzi Watumia Mbinu ya Kusambaza Simu ( Call forwarding ) Kupata Akaunti za WhatsApp

Mdukuzi ( An attacker ) anaweza kuteka akaunti ya WhatsApp ya mwathirika na kupata ufikiaji wa ujumbe wa kibinafsi na anwani kupitia hila. Mbinu inategemea huduma ya usambazaji wa simu moja kwa moja (  Call forwarding  )  inayotolewa na wabebaji wa simu za mkononi na chaguo la WhatsApp kutoa nambari ya uthibitishaji wa nenosiri la wakati mmoja (OTP) kupitia simu ya sauti.  Kulingana na Rahul Sasi, mwanzilishi na Mkurugenzi Mtendaji wa CloudSEK, biashara ya kuzuia hatari ya dijiti, mkakati huo hutumiwa kudukua akaunti za WhatsApp. Inapojaribiwa, iligunduliwa kuwa njia hiyo inafanya kazi, lakini kwa shida kadhaa ambazo mdukuzi mwenye uzoefu wa kutosha anaweza kupita. Wadukuzi wanaweza kuchukua akaunti ya WhatsApp ya mwathirika kwa dakika chache tu, lakini lazima kwanza wapate nambari ya simu ya mlengwa na kuwa tayari kushiriki katika uhandisi wa kijamii.  Sasi anasema kwamba mshambulizi lazima kwanza amshawishi mwathirika kupiga nambari inayoanza na nambari ya Man Machine Interface (MMI)

WhatsApp haitafanya kazi tena kwenye hizi simu za rununu za iOS na Android kuanzia Novemba, Je! yako ipo kwenye orodha? Miezi michache iliyopita imekuwa ngumu sana kwa WhatsApp , ambayo ilizindua riwaya moja baada ya nyingine. Walakini, ubunifu huu una bei na hiyo ni kwa sababu jukwaa haliwezi tena kusaidia mifano yote ya rununu. Kwa hivyo, programu ya ujumbe ilishiriki orodha ya vifaa vya iOS na Android ambavyo haitafanya kazi tena tangu Novemba 1. Vifaa vya rununu kwenye orodha havitapokea tena msaada kutoka kwa programu hiyo na haitaambatana na WhatsApp . Hii ili kuzingatia juhudi zake kwenye simu za kisasa za kizazi kipya, ili kuhakikisha huduma bora ya programu. Kwa ujumla, vifaa vilivyoathiriwa vitakuwa na mfumo wa uendeshaji sawa au chini ya Android 4.0.3. Au, katika kesi ya iPhone, vifaa vyenye iOS 9 na mapema. Hiyo ni kusema, vifaa vya kizamani ambavyo kwa kuwa hawana uwezo wa kusaidia sasisho. Hapa kuna orodha kamili ya simu mahiri ambazo zitaachwa bila WhatsApp : And
