It has been in hacker news the past few days. WhatsApp, the more secure messaging and phone app for iPhone, Android, Windows Phone and WEB has vulnerabilities that allow others to infect mobile devices with malware. The vulnerability can be exploited by placing a phone call. No answering of the phone call is required.
A patch was released 2 days ago. That "fix" was not a complete resolution of the problem. A fix was released in the past few hours. It took me a few tries to get an update on one iPhone.
It is being highly recommended to update WhatsApp. If you have automatic updates enabled, best to check to ensure your WhatsApp is updated.
