Telegram Android Flaw Lets Attackers Run Code When Users Answer Voice Calls

A vulnerability in Telegram's Android app allowed attackers with a standard account to execute code on a victim's device during an incoming voice call. Telegram patched the flaw in version 12.10.4, released in late September, and NebuSec disclosed the issue on October 29.

Why it matters: Telegram Android users who have not updated to version 12.10.4 or later remain vulnerable to remote code execution from any attacker with a basic Telegram account; immediate patching is required.
