Thanks, @Bambino!

I have also wondered why WhatsApp offers me a setting to enable draw video over other apps at times - unrelated, but worrying nevertheless.

Thanks for the information @Bambino. Fortunately my phone has the latest security patch and I've been using WhatsApp with no problems thus far. But it's good to know what's out there and be very careful, at the same time.

That's a bit of a shock, so thanks for the heads up @Bambino 

Fortunately I haven't used Whatsapp for a long while now, so hopefully I will be ok.

Even more reason to stick to the official store!

Yet another good reason why mobile operators shouldn't sit on firmware updates for months to 'optimise the customer experience'
