The Citizen Lab research group at the University of Toronto has conducted an analysis of attacks involving spyware developed by Israeli company Paragon Solutions, which led to the discovery of a zero-day vulnerability in Meta’s WhatsApp communications application.
Paragon has been around since 2019 and its spyware is called Graphite. The company claims that — unlike NSO Group and other surveillance firms whose solutions have been used by authoritarian regimes to target activists, politicians and journalists — it has safeguards in place to prevent such abuse.
