CRITICALanalyst verifiedCovert WhatsApp channel hijack (PhantomSub). Added to CyberXYZ 2026-11-07, verified by a CyberXYZ analyst.
Covert WhatsApp channel hijack (PhantomSub). After the library connects a WhatsApp session, the listed versions make the account follow WhatsApp channels the publisher chose, without the user asking and without telling them. CyberXYZ read every version published by 2026-11-06 from the npm registry (a static read, nothing executed); the listed versions are the ones that do this.
