๐ Verizon call log exposure was more than a bugโit was a real-time surveillance risk.
A serious flaw in Verizonโs pre-installed Call Filter iOS app allowed unauthorized access to detailed incoming call logs of any Verizon user.
Discovered by ethical hacker Evan Connelly in February and patched in March, the issue:
ใป๐ฑAffected millions using the app to block spam and ID unknown numbers
ใป๐ Could have exposed call histories of journalists, law enforcement, and public officials
ใป๐จ Raised massive concerns around privacy and real-time surveillance
Verizon confirmed the fix, but experts stress this as a wake-up call for rigorous mobile app securityโespecially those preloaded at scale.
