To prevent falling victim to this attack, it is highly recommended that all WhatsApp users update the app to the latest version.

Do I have to do this myself? Doesn't update itself?

It usually does, but you can disable updates in Play Store.

> The exploit works well until WhatsApp version 2.19.230. The vulnerability is official patched in WhatsApp version 2.19.244
