WhatsApp Bug :- Phone Number in Google Search
New WhatsApp bug lets your phone number appear in Google Search: All you need to know :-
The popular social messaging application WhatsApp is back with a new bug. A researcher has warned about a new WhatsApp feature which is called 'Click to Chat' and reportedly puts mobile numbers at risk.
The numbers, according to the researcher, are indexed by Google Search which allows anyone to find them. However, WhatsApp has stated that is not a big deal and that the results of the phone numbers only show up if the user has chosen to make it public.
A bug-bounty hunter called Athul Jayaram was quoted by Threatpost stating that a bug in WhatsApp’s Click to Chat feature pushed the phone numbers into risky territory and in turn putting the social messaging site at a risk by allowing Google Search to index them. The issue here is that the misfeature will allow anyone to search for users’ phone numbers on the web which becomes a major privacy risk.
- "Click to Chat" Feature :-
What is "Click to Chat" feature on WhatsApp?
The "Click to Chat" feature assists users in starting a WhatsApp chat with another user even if the phone numbers have not been saved in the sender’s address books. This allows certain websites to chat with their visitors without having to save the phone number.
Jayaram has said that the phone numbers of users using this feature can show up in Google Search results because the search indexes the feature’s metadata. The bug bounty hunter has stated that users’ phone numbers will be visible in plain text in the URL -- https://wa.me/ -- which makes it easier for scammers put together a list of legitimate phone numbers. The researcher has found 300,000 indexed on Google as of now.
