WhatsApp has patched a high-severity vulnerability in its iOS and Mac applications which was apparently used in zero-click attacks against a handful of high-profile individuals. In a security advisory, the company said it fixed CVE-2025-55177,This bug was allegedly chained with a separate flaw, fixed earlier in August, tracked as CVE-2025-43300. These two were used “in a sophisticated attack against specific targeted users.”Zero-click attacks are few and far apart, and when they do pop up, they are usually abused by nation-states in espionage campaigns against politicians and diplomats, journalists, dissidents, government agents, military and defense personnel, and similar.
