NSO Group developed multiple zero-click exploits to target WhatsApp, including one known as Erised, allowing them to install Pegasus malware even after facing legal action from Meta.
The sophistication of these cyber attacks is highlighted by the use of the CVE-2019-3568 vulnerability, a critical buffer overflow bug that WhatsApp identified and mitigated in May 2019.
Documents reveal NSO Group's repeated efforts to circumvent WhatsApp's security measures, exploiting the messaging app's vulnerabilities and using WhatsApp servers to deliver their intrusive malware.
NSO Group's admission of reverse-engineering WhatsApp's code underscores the illegal methods employed to perpetuate surveillance and install Pegasus, challenging both federal law and WhatsApp's Terms of Service.
